Way Back Wednesday --- bu encore !



It's Wednesday! Which means... it's time for Way Back Wednesday, brought to us by the panty tag checking Kept Woman. I'm very excited to be getting my fix again after having last week off. And now that my photo's are all organized, all is right with the world. This weeks theme is:

"Breakin' the law...Breakin' the law..." Car accident? Stupid prank? Let's see your wilder days...get creative if you were smart enough to not capture your illegal activity on film...

Okay. I'm being as creative as possible under the circumstances. We all know drinking under the age of 21 is illegal in the U.S. It's a very bad thing, people. In this shot I was 15 and just a tad shitfaced. BUT..technically I really wasn't breaking any laws, because the photo was taken in Paris, where... my friends, there is no drinking age. :P

I was on a 14 day trip with my French Class. Our parents were asked to sign a permission slip of sorts, which allowed us to "have a glass of wine with dinner". WELL. That's not quite how it all went down. You see, we had one chaperone, our fabulous, somewhat naive, French teacher. We all sat at our own tables and ordered our own dinners, and often times paid our own bill. So...with each meal we'd order...
une bouteille de vin rouge et une bouteille de vin blanc. (a bottle of red...a bottle of white) Yeah, baby!



The history behind this photo: When we'd arrived at our restaurant it was raining so we all had our umbrellas with us. We ate, and drank, and laughed, and drank, and laughed...and drank a little more. When it came time to leave, my friend L and I were a little more than just buzzed. "Am I acting normal?", "yeah..yeah..totally normal." We get outside, put up our umbrellas and trail behind the rest of the group on our walk back to our hotel. About 4 blocks into the walk we hear... "Why are you guys under your umbrella's???" So much for acting normal.

It wasn't raining. We just walked 4 blocks huddled under our umbrellas and it wasn't even fucking raining. I think we both lost it at that point and she snapped this picture. (Betcha you thought I was gonna say I did the graffiti, huh?)

Good times. Good times.

And because I do want to stay healthy...my Beavis and Butthead quote for the day:

I AM CORNHOLIO!! I AM FROM LAKE TITICACA, NICARAGUA!!!
---Beavis and Butthead Do America

...and I still forgot to check my panties...shit!

I LOVE ME CORNHOLIO!!!! Sometimes I want to pull my t-shirt over my head like that and walk around Target.

Well, at least you guys were trying to think about how to look sober...you failed miserably, but you tried and that's all we can ask.
