Happy Birthday Crystal

















May 21, 1980. That was the day I officially lost my status as "youngest" in the Suderman family. It was a sad day for me. I remember it all too well.....It was +40 in the shade. We got the phone call from dad saying that "she" had arrived. I had a gamut of emotions running through my mind. I was not too sure that this would be all good. Was I going to lose all the attention in the family? Do I still have a purpose or a place in this house hold? Soon it was clear to me. I may have lost of position as youngest, but that just gave me a higher, more adventurous purpose. To prove to all that "middle" was better. Middle meaning "center", I had power over this little being.

As cute as she was, she had her own way of doing things. Like for instance. Fashion. This is what Crystal thought that people wore to the Co-ops store, I guess. You go cocaine cowgirl!!!






















So with all my apprehensions of having a new sister enter our world, it ended up being alright. She was very SPECIAL, had her own way of doing things. As she grew, it became more of a game to me of what I could all make this kid do. She tolerated A LOT!!!
















Crystal not only got the brains in the family, but the good hair too.





Well Crystal, I have enjoyed so many adventures with you and wish that I could be there to take you on a adventurous birthday Russian style. Well I am not there in body, but in spirit, heck ya!!!! I will be thinking of you this birthday weekend and will have a drink in your honor, maybe even two. Crystal, you are so loved and so missed. Happy birthday my baby sis and thanks for making me the "center" of the Suderman family.

Cheers!!!

Today is a very special day. It is the Anniversary of the most passionate love birds I have ever met, my parents. Seeing as I will not be taking part in the annual Champagne and Strawberry ceremony tonight, I will be having a little toasting ceremony of my own.




So Cheers to you Mom and Dad, hope you decide to stick it out for 1 more year. Thanks for loving each other so much. There is no better gift for us kids than to have witnessed that love between you too. We could have maybe done without all the groping and stuff, but.....just kidding, it was ALL good.

Oh and Crystal, the left overs of this "bottle" will be waiting for your return to Canada. Paralyzer and white russian season is upon us!!!! CHEERS

Ooooh La Laaaaa!!!


This swimsuit was first worn by my Grandma Nickel, probably back in approximately 1952. Hard to believe that my Grandmother was this size once.

This beauty is a polyester and something else blend. Its triple layer lining helps to ensure that your parts stay incognito, unlike todays swimsuits. I love how it covers all the "hard to work on areas" of the body. They sure knew what they were doing back then. Although this swimsuit fits me like a glove, I could not quite fill in some of the "pointier" areas. Grandma must have been 'smokin' hot back in her day.

Well it is an absolute honor to have been given this swimsuit as part of her legacy. She is an awesome Grandma and I will wear it with pride (just around the house of course). I had a blast being a 1952 babealiscious babe for an evening.
