I'm at my mother's place this evening, to prepare for the American Crossword Puzzle Tournament that starts tomorrow morning. One thing I had the opportunity to do while I'm here is look through the old photos that my mother has stashed away in a closet.
I wanted to find my old elementary school class pictures so I could post them to the Facebook group I stumbled across the other day. I managed to find full-size pictures for fourth and fifth grades, and a wallet-size picture for sixth grade, the one I carried around in my wallet for years after as a memento. I think these may be the only class pictures, as opposed to individual pictures of myself, that I ever had, so I'm satisfied. I just need to hunt down the full-size sixth-grade picture, which may be in the files I brought home from my mother's a few years ago. Then to scan and post to Facebook, and see how many people have cows about them.
There were a ton of other neat pictures going back decades. I just reclaimed some photos from my 21st birthday party, and a couple from my first day of kindergarten.
I slipped on Ma's floor with a glass of water earlier. I landed on the fleshy part of my hipbone, so I don't think I will have more than a bruise for the next few days, but the water spilled impressively. Hopefully I'll be able to overcome the hip bruise and solve crosswords at 100% this weekend.
