Nod your head :)

My sister sent this to me today and I SO nodded my head to all but #6,19,and 33. And as my Mom always told me, fashion goes in 10 year (or less) cycles. I saw girls as the mall a few weekends ago and they had biker shorts/tights under their mini skirts. I was like "I wore that in high school!" I still say #16 when I watch Brayden bumble around and fall. And I say #38 a lot to the guys up at work when I'm pretty sure they've been smokin crack...but most of them are still in their 20's and have no idea what I'm talkin bout! I hope you enjoy :)
