You owned a bicycle with a banana seat and a plastic basket with flowers on it.
(mine was lime green)
You learned to skate with actual skates (not roller blades) that had metal wheels. (my kids think I was weird to hang at the skating rink)
You had nightmares after watching Fantasy Island . (no just king kong)
You had either a 'bowl cut' or 'pixie', not to mention the 'Dorothy Hamill'. People sometimes thought you were a boy. (Dorothy)
You had rubber boots for rainy days and Moon boots for snowy days.
You owned 'Klick-Klacks' and smacked yourself in the face more than once! (Knocked my front tooth out with them
)
You wore a poncho, gauchos, and knickers. (and my mom made them)
You begged Santa for the electronic game, Simon.
You spent hours in your backyard on your metal swing set with the trapeze. The swing set tipped over at least once. (and pinched your fingers in the chain)
You had homemade ribbon barrettes in every imaginable color. (Oh yeah!)
You had a pair of Doctor Scholl's sandals (the ones with hard sole & the buckle). You also had a pair of salt-water sandals.
You wanted to be Laura Ingalls Wilder really bad; you wore that Little House on the Prairie-inspired plaid, ruffle shirt with the high neck in at least one school picture; and you despised Nellie Oleson!
You know who Strawberry Shortcake is, as well as her friends, Blueberry Muffin and Huckleberry Pie. (I think the wallpaper is still up in my sisters room)
You carried a Muppets lunch box to school and it was metal, not plastic. With the thermos inside some were glass inside and broke the first time you dropped them. (I still have a Muppets Lunch box)
You and your girlfriends would fight over which of the Dukes of Hazzard was your boyfriend. (Bo)
It was a big event in your household each year when the 'Wizard of Oz' would come on TV. Your mom would break out the popcorn and sleeping bags!
You completely wore out your Grease, Saturday Night Fever, and Fame soundtrack record album. (Album? we had 8 track)
You tried to do lots of arts and crafts, like yarn and Popsicle-stick God's eyes, decoupage, or those weird potholders made on a plastic loom. (Lots and lots of pot holders)
You used to tape record songs off the radio by holding your portable tape player up to the speaker. (I still see myself doing this!)
You learned everything you needed to know about girl issues from Judy Blume books. (Are you there God, It's me, Margaret.)
You thought Olivia Newton John's song 'Physical' was about aerobics. (?? its not??)
You wore friendship pins on your tennis shoes, or shoelaces with heart or rainbow designs.
You wanted to be a Solid Gold dancer.
You drowned yourself in Love's Baby Soft - which was the first 'real' perfume you ever owned.
You glopped your lips in Strawberry Roll-on lip-gloss till it almost dripped off.
