Gratuitous Childhood Picture of Yourself Thursday: Running Away
Me. Age five. Elliot Lake, Ontario. Running away.
Realizing I will need supplies, I pack a suitcase. It contains a single action figure.
Being winter, I dress appropriately in boots, mittens, and a scarf.
I am wearing nothing else.
My mother, who takes this photo, is very supportive.
My father, on the couch in the background, seems less than concerned.
I open the door.
There is a full-on blizzard outside.
I go downstairs and play with my action figure.
