I love the picture of Dana here: [link]
Me too!
I am not sure if the stars look older because they are not made up, or if the tintypes make people look rougher than usual (meaning that maybe people didn't look so old at a young age in the olden days!)
shrift and sarameg, I'm sorry you're having less-than-stellar days.
Congrats, Dana!

Yeah, I didn't think the pictures were flattering. And maybe they weren't supposed to be. But they all kind of looked like zombies, to a lesser or greater extent. Except William Macy, who looked like a hobo.
Put William Macy in different clothes, and he'd be the perfect weatherbeaten pioneer subject of a tintype.
They weren't their usual Hollywood pretty, but they were incredibly compelling. And Elijah Wood, Nick Cave and (of all people) Flea seem to have absolutely ideal faces for tintypes; I wouldn't have been a bit surprised if the photographer had added a note at the end saying, "Oh, yeah, I threw those three in because I found them in a box of tintypes in someone's attic and they were such great vintage celebrity doppelgangers I couldn't resist."
Oh man, I think Flea is when I started thinking "They look like zombies!"
I guess I'm not a tintype gal.
Timelies all!
Weird thing happened. While I was using the treadmill, my left foot started feeling like it was asleep. Dunno if it was due to the muscle cramps/tightness in my left calf, but the foot feels normal now.

What can I say, I know how to pose.
I texted Dana earlier to tell her that my dentist appointment was way more relaxing than any of the meetings I've had today. But it was just a cleaning, no x-rays, and my teeth are good. I wasn't getting a cavity drilled, or anything.
I'm running errands now because I can't do them tomorrow (late evening meetings + hockey game), and I'm getting on a plane Thursday at 7am.
Then I need to login to work when I'm done. I'm starting to wonder if the weight loss secret is being too busy to snack.
Yikes, Sheryl! I hope it's nothing.
I am weirdly stressed that fitting today's run around my eye appointment is not as simple as I was supposing. It's fine, self! It's light out until after 8. Also, I kinda wanted to go shop at the newly re-opened Ace, show my support, but I can't think of anything I can go pick up without doing a lot of research first to make sure my specs are right. Hardware is a tough impulse buy. I mean, it's easy for me to impulsively buy the entirely wrong thing, but I am trying not to do that.
