My yearbook…
August 9th, 2009
I discovered I could reinvent myself in the past. I’m totally diggin’ the ‘54 look for me right now. How cool am I in 1954. SERIOUSLY. I can’t stop looking at my ‘54 nerd-self but cool in ‘09 look. Of course I’d never be able to pull that off now-a-days… one has to be a member in the League of Super Cool People for that look. But I can pretend.
Me through the years:
1962 - Off to college to get my M.R.S.
1964 - M.R.S. on hold. I discover fast cars and faster boys.
1984 - I discover that my parents are Sigfried & Roy and a lion.
1996 - Farm reporter on a local Iowa NBC affiliate.
1998 - The year of my gender identity crisis.
2000 - I go on a break with my boyfriend and hang out all day with my friends a the local coffee house.
Thanks to the Triplets for turning me on to YearbookYourself.com!

Farting around with needle & thread and then blogging about it.
Hahahahahaha!!! I’m sure glad you came to your senses after 2000. One might think that 1998 picture led you down the current path — thank goodness hubby came along and sent you down the STRAIGHT and narrow!!!
August 9th, 2009Lovely!
August 9th, 2009I’m a big fan of 1996 myself. Off to go try that.
That is absolutely the cutest thing I have seen in a while! A Hoot!
August 9th, 2009Ahhhh, so much poofy hair going on!! I believe it was a necessity and also required tons of hairspray.
August 9th, 2009Too funny!!!
August 9th, 2009mwahhahahaha! one thing is for sure throughout time…we women sure use a whole hell of a lot of hair product. those hair spray people must be bazillionairs. i’m just saying.
August 9th, 2009This is too funny! I had to try it myself. I forgot, at one time, I had a Farrah Fawcett hairstyle. That look still looks great on me (according to the “yearbook” website), even though I was 13 at the time!
August 9th, 2009I don’t think I need that website. I have all those photos in my personal archives already.
August 9th, 2009Creepy. Please don’t do this again!

August 10th, 2009OMG!!! These are hysterical! Yep, the 1964 you is so…well, you. Though I’m thinking that your fast cars and faster boys may have slowed down just a bit. Mine did…

August 10th, 2009This just confirms that you dare to be different, Monica - I mean, didn’t we all have white-rimmed glasses in 1954?

Dear Many Faces of Monica, this is so funny I can’t stand it. I want an 8×10 glossy of 1984… And I love your recent crochet endeavors! I think you need to crochet some RED BALLS. Love, Sarah xo
August 17th, 2009Oh my gosh, this is hysterical. It’s just hard to pick my favorite Monica. Farm reporter is definitely a contender!
