You are so intense - I can see the genius in those eyes. Would have loved to have a conversation with you back then. V/F

Bob, This was taken during artschool. It was to be a self portrait! This was my favorite time of my life!!! Everytime the teacher would need supplies, me & my friend Patrick would go for him on the rainy days & we would splash around in the rain puddles like a couple of children. We would come back soaked. This was a time when my friend Eric stopped the bus that I was on from Pittsburgh back to my home & gave me a dozen roses, a teddy bear, & a giant chocolate kiss! then he ran off the bus without a word & everyone clapped & I cried. Yes, this just brought back the most precious memories of my life! Thank You Bob!! Also, wouldn't mind having a conversation with you today!!! :)

Gray, Thank you so much my friend. I wasn't sure what to add to the group, you had no limit. So, I just posted all of the ones of me. I had deleted everything & all the groups I was in & all the images from them. And started over with the groups. I am being very particular of the ones I join now & careful as to what I had & how many. Sorry about the cat! I must have clicked on your group a while back when I submitted that one :( sorry........ forgive me? :)
