OK, so it's really 44 candles today......not Sixteen.
Whatever.
It's what's on the inside that counts, right?
And on the inside -- I still sometimes feel like that sorta awkward, shy & insecure high school freshman.....a lot like the one Miss Molly Ringwald played in one of my all-time favorite flicks, Sixteen Candles.
Hmmm.....the fact that I happen to now be married to one of the shy freshman guys that I was friends with way back then -- AND we have a 15-year-old high school daughter -- well, I'm sure that has nothing to do with my fond memories & nostalgia for this movie and that time. Right.
OK......so HAPPY BIRTHDAY to me.
Look, I think I'm gonna have to order myself a present:
Awesome.
And because I feel like sharing today, take a peek at this slightly worn 24-year-old trailer for Sixteen Candles:
Love, love it!
Hey.....why not take some time today to reminisce and enjoy your own high school memories?
Yep....I think we were all just a little awkward, geeky and insecure back then.
