A couple of days ago I finally got around to going through the "Misc." box - the box I never unpacked after I moved. I discovered a few of my "Year in the Life of Amy" scrapbook/diary things I used to do as a youngun - (was it all just low tech blogging?). Worth their weight in gold for pure entertainment value.
Let's take 1985. Every diary entry until June ends with the Celtics current record. Intersperced between cut out pictures of Bruce Springsteen and a whole page devoted to Live Aid (too embarassing to show) then there is this page tracking the playoffs, which did not end well:
check out the short shorts on Larry! check out my handwriting... I'm surprised I didn't dot my eyes with hearts. These were the days when I was truly obsessed with sports. You think I'm nuts now - no. I've mellowed. I know now that life will go on if my teams don't win. But I know the girl who lived and died with her team is still in there... she shows up for a few weeks every March and sometimes even in October.-----

Obsessed with sports... a blogger... a Syracuse grad... if you weren't a liberal, you might be perfect! ;-)
