That's a very cute picture, Anitquarian.
Calvin: You can’t just turn on creativity like a faucet. You have to be in the right mood.
Hobbes: What mood is that?
Calvin: Last-minute panic.
LadyW, your photo is very lovely.
Antiquarian, that is a very sweet photo, you guys make a cute couple.

I've taken a couple of new mug shots... well, the good ones were blurred beyond repair, in most others I looked like a mad cowso here's the best of a bad batch
Pictures capture you Sleepy. You're a sweet young lady.

@sleepywitch just out of curiousity, any photos of you with your natural hair colour?
Proof again that too much reading causes curly hair.
Thanks, Virge
hey, how did you know that's not my natural hair colour?@sleepywitch just out of curiousity, any photos of you with your natural hair colour?
Proof again that too much reading causes curly hair.
here's the closest I've got to it (it's dyed reddish with Henna hear; I've dyed my hair with Henna since I was 13 and even when I don't do it for a year,
it just won't rinse out. when I try to dye my hair black it's got a red shade even when it didn't look red without the black dye)
by the way, I love your hair, Prole. but I guess you must read a lot more than me, if reading causes curls

Awesome photos Sleepy!
I declare after all there is no enjoyment like reading! How much sooner one tires of anything than of a book! When I have a house of my own, I shall be miserable if I have not an excellent library.
Jane Austen, Pride and Prejudice
Lots of people seem to love the hair, but they must just take issue with the guy attached!
Completely unrelated to the thread but that boar reminds me of ALF:
You're right Prole!

Yes, I do look sad, but I'm not actually crying, it's just the shadow of my hair under my eye
This picture fits my mood today, I'm pretty tired and life just isn't very fun right now.
