Scanner sunday

I found this photo in my big hatbox this morning - I was looking for something else and instead floated off down memory lane. This photo is what happens when you live with one of your best friends, and you have the same sense of humor, and you take a joke and you run with it. I am drunk (obviously) and Mitchell said to me, "You know - in that get-up you somehow look like a disaffected member of some defunct royal family - like a Hapsburg princess on vacation in the Alps or something."

What? But that became the joke. That I was a coked-up princess deprived of her throne - being all bitter and glamourous in some Alpine nightclub. There are a number of other photos in this series. I loved living with Mitchell, we were always doing crap like that.

Hahaha! Mitchell's description was very accurate.

I'm getting an Edie Sedgwick vibe off it a little bit, too.

hahaha Totally! It definitely looks like some privileged chick, disaffected for very vague reasons, exuding random old money.

Tracey - there's another one of me, lying crumpled up in a corner of the room - in that get-up - with the same expression on my face. I love the image of me and Mitchell, setting up these shots, at, like 2 in the morning after a night out.

I have a bunch of photos of Jeff M and me doing similar things - I think I can still remember the choreography we created using a Richard Marx song as well- - Jeff will be ordained on June 2 -perhaps I should find those photos...

I think maybe the roommate combo of SK girl and Cranston East guy was particularly...creative.
