Self Portrait meme

[intertext]

Seen all over (are we just a bunch of exhibitionists??)

Take a picture of yourself right now. Don’t change your clothes. Don’t fix your hair. Just take a picture. Post that picture with no editing. (Except maybe to get the image size down to something reasonable. Don’t go posting an eight megapixel image.) Include these instructions.

owlfish prompted me to try using PhotoBooth - that application has always terrified me (who wants to sit at the computer looking at a full sized picture of yourself, warts and all!). I also remind you that here it is the middle of the night, so you are looking at an insomniac, in tatty t-shirt night wear :)

Oh, I didn't mean to imply at all that you post lots of pictures of yourself there! I hope your other readers don't get that impression! I've only seen one or two, and they've just been lovely--you in your surroundings, with the dogs, really beautiful.

Forgive me? I didn't mean to imply that you were Ms Posts Self Portraits Queen or anything like that, truly!

Oh, golly - sorry - my reply must have sounded more grumpy than it was meant to. I was smiling when I wrote it!! (damn these internets). You don't need to apologize!

Phew! No you didn't sound grumpy--it's just, yeah, the Internet--I just always want to be sure people understand...

Annnyway... it's a super photo. And the dog in your drawing has a similar expression on his face, same warm smile :-)

Thanks :) Yeah - I'm constantly reminded about how easy it is to misinterpret things on the internet, and heaven knows I use it enough, especially as I teach on it as well!
