I've been seeing these on Katie the Scrapbook Lady's blog this week, and I couldn't help but play along.
• You watched the Pound Puppies (I don't ever remember watching the show, but I had a bunch of the little Puppies).
• Girls wore biker shorts under their skirts (all in bright colors!).
• You yearned to be a member of the Baby-sitters club and tried to start a club of your own (I remember reading the books and wishing we lived in town so I could be a baby-sitter).
• You had plastic streamers on your handle bars.
• You wore a ponytail on the side of your head (see evidence below).
• You made your mom buy one of those clips that would hold your shirt in a knot on the side (I so wore those!).
• You played the game "MASH" (Mansion, Apartment, Shelter, House) (Remember? The folded paper game? It was the bomb!).
• You wore stonewashed Jordache jean jackets and were proud of it.
• You ever wore fluorescent clothing (check out the socks in the picture below!).
• You ever owned a pair of Jelly-Shoes (and they hurt my feet every day).
• You remember going to the skating rink before there were inline skates (I lived in the country so we didn't go often, but I broke my wrist at Lia's little sister's Brownie party at the skating rink when I was in 6th grade).
• You've gone through this nodding your head in agreement.
• You wore like, EIGHT pairs of socks over tights with high top Reeboks (Ha! Pink high top Punky Brewster Reeboks!).
• You wore socks scrunched down (see photo below).
• You remember Alf.
• You remember New Kids on the Block when they were cool (I had their tapes, a sleeping bag, sheets, and a blanket...oh yes, I did).
• You know all the words to Bon Jovi - SHOT THROUGH THE HEART.
• You just sang those words to yourself.
• Homemade Levi shorts (the shorter the better) (I'm pretty sure when I cut off my own they had about a 1" inseam).
• You tight rolled your jeans.
• Girls wore biker shorts under their skirts (all in bright colors!).

Check out my cute hubby in 1988. Does anyone think his feet look abnormally small compared to his ginormous head?
You Know You Grew Up in the 90's if:
• You can finish the phrase "Ice Ice..."
• Talk to the hand... enough said.
• You rented VHS tapes at the video store (not so much the video store, but the old gas station at Centennial - 41 and CR 800).
• You had a strong opinion in the whole Tanya Harding versus Nancy Kerrigan thing.
• You watched the OJ Simpson Bronco chase live on TV (we were at a cookout in Lafayette at one of Mom and John’s friends' house - weird that I remember that, I can’t remember anything!).
• You watched the OJ Simpson trial live on TV.
• You know who Urkel is.
• You can sing the rap to the Fresh Prince of Bel-Air and can do the Carlton.
• You know that "WOAH" comes from Joey on Blossom (he annoyed me, but he was too cute).
• You owned flannel shirts (many!).
• You did the Macarena.
• Disney classic animation movies were back (Aladdin, Beauty and the Beast, The Little Mermaid).
• You or a girl you knew had the "Rachel" haircut.
• You had a Tamagotchi or a Furby (I think my Furby was pink).
• You used to watch DuckTales or Power Rangers after school (Duck Tales and a cereal snack at Grandma’s!).
• You owned a pair of overalls, and not because you were from the country (that picture also involved pigtails and was too embarrassing).
• Cell phones were brick shaped (haha, Dad had his bag phone forever!).
• You loved the line "I'll be back!"
• You've ever ended a sentence with the word SIKE!
• You remember the CRAZE, then the BANNING of slap bracelets (I had a bunch).
• You still get the urge to say "NOT" after every sentence (not really, but I said it way too often).
• You remember when Michael Jordan played baseball (barely, was that for like 5 minutes?).
• Thursday night on NBC really was "Must See TV" (Seinfeld, Friends).
• You remember the first time you logged onto the internet using an AOL disk.
