Yearbooking in the Santa Anas

by La Shawn on October 22, 2008

in General

I’m sitting outside on the deck with laptop and “working,” as the Santa Ana winds blow all sorts of allergens my way. Hard to believe it’s currently 91 degrees. If I were sitting outdoors in DC in 91-degree weather, I’d be a sopping mess. Dry heat is cool.

Anyway, I stumbled across this YearbookYourself time-waster and thought I’d share.

Check me out in 1958 and 1960 (Integration now! Segregation never!):

1972 and 1976:

1978 and 1986 (one of my best friends in high school had the same hairstyle):

78 86

So far life on the West Coast is just groovy, thanks for asking, though I can’t shake the feeling I’m at least three hours behind the rest of the world. It’ll pass, I’m told. I’m having a ball looking up and hooking up with people I know who live out here.

On the schedule: Pajamas Media TV appearances (from their El Segundo office), concerts for work and for pleasure (yes, the music returns!), touristy stuff I have to get out of my system (how many times can you drive up and down Sunset before the novelty wears off?), etc.
