photobooth friday



inspired by the fabulous liplocking action going on over at my house is cuter than yours last week and of course, lovey-dovey smoochy-woochy valenTIMES day, I decided on a kiss. photobooth kissing, so good. what I wrote on the back of this strip:

photobooth. forest fair mall. cincinnati, ohio. january 1st, 1991 (approx. 10:15 p.m.) k-i-s-s-i-n-g. ward and andrea. the RED curtain.

and I do believe there were lots of swirlies and hearts scribbled on the back too. we'd only been dating for seven months and so we couldn't keep our hands off of each other. I can't believe that was fifteen years ago. folks, I think I might be old. I'm old. or, thinking about how long ago this was makes me feel old. because it feels like it was only a couple of years ago that we were slipping behind that short polyester curtain. all the mall-going people walking by with their shopping bags, on the way to the dollar theatre or the food court. gawking at the lower halves of our bodies and wondering what we were up to in there. that's right, NO GOOD.

    Oh, I'm so jealous that you two have such a documented history together! And this is a sweet picture. You're right, photobooth kisses are extra sweet.

    And Andrea, you may be "old", but you've been drinking from the fountain of youth!

    I put up the only photobooth pic that I could find on Flickr. It's lovely. It's over 10 years old as well.

    I've been to Forest Fair Mall! I bought my favorite-ever red suede cowboy boots at the now-defunct Parisian there back when I was first married and living in Cincinnati. It feels weird to see a photobooth Friday shot from someplace that feels "hometowny" to me.

    Just wanted to delurk to let you know how fun I think the photobooth Friday posts are!

    that is so 1991! Hah! I love the rings on all your middle fingers. And ward's hair. I totally wish I had those moments with Joel back somedays. The days when it was "just us" and nothing else mattered. thanks for the flash back.
