Where were you in 99? What was your life like then? I turned 11 that year. This year has always stood out in my memories, a lot happened around that time. I remember well the Y2k scare, the approaching millennium, all the popular bands and movies of the time. My family got our first computer that year. The Internet was still a very new thing for me. Remember those America Online CD’s where you had so many hours of free Internet access? I actually think we had gotten some from K-Mart. I also took a trip to see my bio Dad’s side of the family on the East Coast that I still remember to this day, it was a special, rare visit. Anyway, let’s hear some memories.

At LSU. I lived in an apartment off Nicholoson.
I was 18.
My biggest regret of that year was not going to woodstock with my friends.

1999... moved three times across Georgia and South Carolina. Ended up in a one bedroom apartment for 450/mo with my soon to be husband.

Life was good. It still is, but it was a different kind of good back then. Fond memories.

Freshman at USL, just renamed ULL.
No job, learning bass guitar, hanging with friends, drinking at Shannahans, walking around like I knew everything. Oh how life has changed.

Got a rent house in north west Tx for $250 a month and lived the best year of my life rodeoing and chasing pussy
