Inara: So. Would you like to lecture me on the wickedness of my ways? Book: I brought you some supper, but if you'd prefer a lecture, I've a few very catchy ones prepped. Sin and hellfire... one has lepers.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Hee.

Nice pictures, smonster! Also, you are one of those girls who manages to be cute, pretty, and hot.

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.

smonster, in the Jammin' With Bruce photo, your question mark is bethb.

...or they may be in the right order. flickr mystifies me.

Thanks and thanks!

Deb, I thought that might be her, but wanted to be sure. Corrected.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

I'd like to point out to Deb that I am in fewer pictures than she is.

(The dearth of photos of me doesn't bother me at all, given that the ones which do exist are less-than-flattering. So there's no need of reassurance, etc., etc. That's not a comment on the pictures; it's a comment on my roundness and unkempt hair and regrettable sartorial choices.)

More pictures of Kate P. and smonster, is what I say! Bring 'em on!

I like precisely three of the photos of me I've seen so far, and only one at Prom. Bottom line is, I don't mind looking my age, but exhaustion and illness are making me look a lot older than that, and there's nothing says I have to like it.

My invisibility issues are rooted in another issue - they have nothing to do with looking good or not so good. They are, literally, a Not Fade Away thing.

But it doesn't matter. smonster had some wonderful groupings in there - I love the ones with Theo in there, and smonster herself is so damned cute and kinetic, she's a joy to look at.

I've just hit the point where I hadn't realized, even in mirrors (and even with my hyper-critical eye), how way-past-chunky I really am. Pictures, however, especially non-posed ones, have managed to point out to me that perhaps I should lose the hibernating-for-the-winter look.

(This isn't a self-loathing body-image demons post; it's just my observation. I know I can be pretty, no matter what size I am, but I'd like to be less round.)
