I've been going through some old dusty boxes recently, of old dusty stuff. The old dusty stuff primarily pertained to old dusty me.
I found this great photo of me (above) from 1979. lol Of course it's just a gag, that I had shared on facebook as well when I used this as my profile picture yesterday.
I can only wish I had a cool afro like that!
Going through all these old pictures, and clippings, and this and that from school, from sports, from trips to experiences. I've gone through a couple boxes worth of stuff and begun the arduous process of translating these objects into a semi-organized fashion in scrapbooks.
The basketball category is done and safely in the book, acid-free sheets, nice book, the whole deal.
It took me 20-some years to take-on this task. For over 20-years I've been carrying about a history of my life smushed into four cardboard boxes. It's been over 20-years since I've even looked at this stuff.
And it will probably be another 20-years until I look at it again.
But by the time the scrapbook is done, I'll be carrying around a history of my life in one book, instead of four boxes.
