1985 was one of the best years of my life.
I got contact lenses that spring, which I wore for the next 30 years before having to switch back to glasses. I never looked so good those three decades.
A great summer: I worked a summer job mowing a cemetery, was actually easy money. I got back together with the girlfriend I had dumped a few weeks earlier. We married 7 years later and are still married today.
The Royals won their first World Series.
