This is a detail from a larger portrait of all the cousins on my mother's side of the family, done while we were visiting them in England for Christmas. I am four years old, plus a couple of months, and have apparently already decided to make my reputation as "the dopey-looking one" in any given group of people. The one in the matching dress next to me is withoutawhy. (We aren't twins, but our mother dressed us the same until we got old enough to protest.) What I remember most about that visit: double decker buses, the smell of vodka and cigarettes, watching an old man put a ship in a bottle, splitting open my chin on my nana's television set, the Beatles museum.

OH EM GEE... Fluorescent leggings and oversized t shirts... I think my psyche blocked that shit out... That was pretty much all of 4-7th grade for me (Yah, 7th grade, I was awkward as fuck for all of junior high, i went from leggings to coloured jeans. Seriously, green, burgundy, brown, I had coloured jeans and I wore them on a REGULAR ROTATION. This is why no one has ever said "Oh Kris, you're so cool" to me...)
