Telling Moments from my Childhood 3.
Date: August 14th, 1994
Age: 8 1/2
When I found this gem, I said a little “hooray” for growing up in the digital age.
(also, in retrospect, have realized I may have actually been a character from Clarissa Explains it all. Namely, the title character.)

This clip has grown to epic proportions in my family’s mythology since it was filmed in 1988. I have to say, after finding it tucked away on an 8mm tape, I personally don’t think it lives up to its legend. Although, I do laugh every time I watch it. My father used to threaten to send this to America’s Funniest Home Videos. Frankly, I don’t know which is the funnier part, the ball to the face or the numerous rippling fat rolls all over my little two year old body (Now I know why they used to call me Michelin Baby).

I found this two minute clip on an 8mm tape marked “1991” at my family’s home in Ohio. A telling bit of footage, indeed.
