I'll continue copying files to my desktop tomorrow from the CDs. The scans look pretty good so far - several have triggered memories that I haven't thought of in years and years, already. The slides will not require a lot of processing before I can put them up, mostly, but most of the negative scans will (because they were not 35 mm film, they need some cropping as adjacent photos are partly in the scan).

I've been crying occasionally, but laughing as well. There is photographic evidence of the time I took a brown felt-tip pen to myself. I think I meant to give myself "the measles," but it's possible that I was trying for freckles, since I envied my friends with freckles. Either way, I look completely absurd, as you can imagine. (Eventually I will upload so you can laugh at me and not have to imagine. But, not tonight.)

So glad I had this done. So many memories here.

I am not sure how many reading this will understand my glee - it's such a trivial thing - I think [livejournal.com profile] dormouse_in_tea and [livejournal.com profile] terram likely will, though. I've seen two photos of MY PINKS. Well, okay, of other things but you can see my pinks. I am not sure if they're good enough images to identify, but.... (They are taller than I remembered, so I would not have had much luck trying to go from memory, based on descriptions!)

Ok, I've read that last paragraph five times and I'm still confused. Dare I ask what your pinks are? O.o

I can't wait to see the measles/freckles pix! :)
I am also curious about the PINKS?

YAY PINKS! That's awesome. *hugs*
