Yeah, it was the one that left a mark. I think I was like 10 when I got mine. I got mad at the kid who managed to rip my scab off.

I don't know which shot it was but it was the one that left that circular mark on our upper arms. I don't remember a scab but I do remember pitching a fit.

Don't you wonder why some people like to be on stage and others are terrified? Did you get a smallpox shot when you were a kid? They took a needle and stuck your arm many times in an area about the size of a dime. It got a huge scab later. My scab came off when I was out on the Cranberry Morninghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10758563068581561194noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2600608370084874699.post-13014986441297013972014-10-20T18:26:20.323-04:002014-10-20T18:26:20.323-04:00Oh, yes- that musty smell.

Didn't do ballet and jazz until junior high. I was never in a recital, so never had any fancy outfits or spray-painted shoes. You were adorable!!
