17! What a wonderful age! Enjoy it to the fullest, Lindsey.
I was 16 when DARK SHADOWS went off the air in early April, and turned 17 that December, missing it still. When I read my diary from that era, not a day goes by that I don't wish for the show to come back.
It actually did, from a Rochester, NY station, while I was in college, and it helped ease my homesickness while I was away. Ah, memories!
Have a wonderful birthday, Lindsey!
Love, Robin
