You wanted your first show to be at a roller rink.

Your Holly Animal sleeping bag was your most prized possession. You couldn't wait to some the free animal poster that came when you ordered books from the Weekly Reader book club. You know who Strawberry Shortcake is, set well as her friends, Blueberry Muffin and Huckleberry Pie. You spent hours in your backyard on your Picture Animal Cute swing set with the trapeze.

You had that Fisher Price Doctor's Kit with Cute Animal Picture stethoscope that actually worked. You had the Donnie and Cute dolls with those pink and purple satiny shredded outfits. You owned a bicycle with a banana seat and a plastic us with flowers on it. You often asked Picture Magic-8 ball the question: Who will I marry. Every now and then It's a Hard Knock Life from the movie, Annie will go into your brain and you can't stop singing it the whole day.

• You wore friendship pins on on tennis shoes, or shoelaces with heart or rainbow designs.
• You used to tape record songs off radio by holding your portable tape player up to the speaker.
• You carried Muppets lunch box to school and it was metal, not plastic.

You and girlfriends would fight over which of the Dukes of Hazzard was your boyfriend. You had subscriptions Dynamite and Tiger Beat. Love's Baby was the first real perfume you ever owned. You learned everything you needed to know about girl issues Judy Blume books Are you there God, It's me, Margaret. The swing set tipped over at once.
