Me: 2006

[Writer]

And so hypocritical, truly private me finally broke down and posted a current picture - this is taken in my study.

Why did I? Perhaps I need group approval, I don't know. But here's me 27 years after that other picture... I'm now 31.


If you are into women in black turtlenecks, here you go.

If you like women with red highlights in serious need of touching up, here you go.

If you like women who look like they're trying to hypnotize you, here you go.

I seriously need a bath and a hair brush.

Writer.

On edit: P.S. If I have gotten into a heated argument with you recently, here's your big opportunity to print out my pic. and burn, rip apart, or throw darts at it. HA!

On edit again: Here's another pic., also in my study. This is WAY too much fun! :woohoo:

1. Sometimes hypocrisy has great results

I'm a big fan of black turtlenecks — maybe a bigger one now. :7

[Writer]

2. You are waaaaaaaaay too kind.

:blush:

[Radio_Lady]

38. You are quite a beautiful young woman, Writer!

Enjoy the holiday season and thanks for the correspondence we've shared this year at the DU.

In peace,

Radio_Lady Ellen and Grandpa (Here's our photo from the Luau at my 50th High School Reunion -- October 2006.)

[Writer]

4. Thank you.

You are very kind.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

6. Nope...I'm not being kind, sweetie!

I'm being honest... :hug:

[Sugar Smack]

5. Holy SHIT, you're pretty!

:wow:

Don't know what else to say; you're a good writer too! I need to sleep. But: :pals: :yourock:

[Writer]

11. Sugar, you're such a sweetie.

Thank you. :blush:

[Hissyspit]

7. Yowzah! You totally get my group approval.

Brains AND Hotsa!
:)

[uppityperson]

8. Cripes, why did I think you were male.

I really have to stop looking at avatar pictures. Nice picture.

[Starbucks Anarchist]

9. Excellent pic!

You're very pretty. :hi:

[Writer]

10. Wow. I should have done this a long time ago.

I've been feeling rather shitty lately... this is quite a pick-me-up!

[Hissyspit]

14. Here's me. Do you want to marry me now, Writer?

(O.K., so it's a little dated... I'm 44.)

[Writer]

15. That's very kind, but Mr. Writer would kick your ass.

And I really don't like violence. ;)

[Hissyspit]

16. Whew... That's O.K. I'm commitment-phobic.

Anyway, I'm gonna marry Reyd Reid Reed.

[Whoa_Nelly]

12. Can I borrow your skin for about a week?

Going on a trip...need young skin...much appreciated! ;)

[idgiehkt]

13. you look just like I imagined you...

I just didn't put in the red highlights.

wow. you are captivating in prose and image both.

maybe next year, come spring, you might see me on here.

:hi:

[wildhorses]

17. a very pretty Writer we have here

:hi:

[billyskank]

18. Oh my god you are beautiful!

*swoon*

[Writer]

20. ,,,

:blush:

[billyskank]

25. Mind if I draw you some time?

[Writer]

32. That's quite a compliment.

Sure, I suppose...

[billyskank]

33. I won't if you wouldn't like it

Don't want to make you uncomfortable.

[Writer]

35. Well I just never have received such a compliment before...

but I have been trying to be more bold recently; this thread is one example of that.

So... heck, go for it! :blush:

[billyskank]

36. Okay

watch this space! :hi:

[Guava Jelly]

19. I figured you were a total babe :o)

I must be psychic.
Because you are.

and happy turkey-day

[graywarrior]

29. Problem? n/t

[Karenina]

34. Been a fan of yours

and felt betrayed by the hypocrisy of the "Me-centeredness" charge I saw hurled with such venom at others... It's not a real "problem" here in cyberspace. Just a disappointment. Things are rarely what they seem in these times...

[Deja Q]

26. Very lovely indeed.

Regal, and I love your hair too.

[xchrom]

27. you are lovely.

[SeattleGirl]

28. Wow! Beautiful face you got there, Writer

Thanks for showing us a picture of the "current" you!

[Madrone]

30. You are gorgeous.

Thank for sharing with us.

[BarenakedLady]

31. You are truly stunning.

no doubt.

[swag]

37. v. nice face

Thanks for posting.

[Karenina]

39. Another kick for ME

:kick:

[Haole Girl]

40. You are very pretty....

I always suspected you didn't have blond highlights, or a fake smile, like a Texan!!

:rofl:

BTW, you should also post a pic in the swimsuit thread (where you can see me as a brunette): http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=105&topic_id=5872329&mesg_id=5872329

[Writer]

49. It took a lot of gumption just to do this...

when I finally gather enough courage to post a pic of me in a swimsuit, I have a feeling you wouldn't want to see me in a swimsuit by that time!

Thank you. :blush:

P.S. Hook 'em, Horns! :headbang:

[Karenina]

41. ME,ME,ME,ME,ME!!!

Are you ready, willing or able yet to deal with ME?

[Starbucks Anarchist]

43. Are you okay?

[Karenina]

45. No I'm NOT okay.

The display of accusing others, particularly of moms trying to tend to their kids in the best way they know how, of ME-centeredness juxtaposed by the threads I've obsessively kicked is EMBLEMATIC of the microcosmal and macrocosmal SICKNESS of our Gesellschaftfähigkeit. NO.I.AM.NOT.OK.

[Starbucks Anarchist]

46. Then take it to GD.

We don't get into flame wars in the Lounge unless it's about the Olive Garden. :D

[Karenina]

48. BWHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!

:rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl:

Circle the wagons and all that! True I mostly hang out there and am not a part of any clique here. I'll go away now. Tschüß!!!

[SammyWinstonJack]

44. ..

:evilgrin:

[SPKrazy]

42. You Are An Attractive Woman!

and I mean that!

nice pics

;-)

[GOPisEvil]

47. Yes, Master...I am ready to do thy bidding.

*shakes head*

Damn, I was hip-mo-tized.

Seriously, you look rather like I thought, only better. If that makes no sense, I had 3 hours of sleep last night, I'm shocked I'm functional at the moment.

[sakabatou]

50. Suge (cool)

[NewWaveChick1981]

51. You're gorgeous, dahling!

:hi: :bounce: Just as I thought... :D

[Writer]

53. Thank you. I always have thought that I look younger than I am.

It's been tough at times in both corporate and in academic environments. Some have assumed that I'm not to be taken seriously. Others have assumed that I can't think. Perhaps I appear a bit subversive, but in a way it's a benefit because I tend to be underestimated.

Thanks. It's always nice to hear such a compliment from another attractive woman! :hi:

[Anarcho-Socialist]

52. Wow, yes you are a cutie

With smashing eyes, eyebrows and lips. :9

[RetroLounge]

54. Gorgeous. Truly.

:wow:

Thanks for posting!

and yes, once you do it, it gets addicting. Photo threads are the bomb!

[buddhamama]

55. you're beautiful, Writer.

it is nice to finally put a face to the name. :thumbsup:

[Writer]

56. Thank you.

Rumor has it that you're a rather beautiful person yourself! :)
