A thought that’s been going through my head a lot recently (which I should cherish and investigate — shallow as my everyday existence tends to be) is that everybody has their ‘prime’ time. Some hit it in their twenties, others in their thirties or later. I think I made a pretty good kid and kept it together in my teens and tweens. I don’t think I’m very succesful so far at being an adult.

  1. How did you scan them? And are you happy with the results? [He asked, having >3,000 slides in various boxes in a dark casket]

  2. you’re so lucky to have these. And you were so adorable (and still are, of course!).

  3. They’re actually rolls of print proofs – I have the actual prints of some of these pictures, but most are just the proofs (and no negatives). Considering I’m scanning a negative sized print with my crappy scanner, I think they’re alright.

  4. Thank you, I was wondering why the perforated part of the film looked black.

  5. By the way, don’t be so hard on yourself!

  6. I’m too soft on myself most of the time, I think. Most of what I do is ‘escape’ and I leave important bits hanging.
