No explanation for this pic. #TBT Taken in 2010. I think I had something poignant I wanted to write but I can't articulate.
Life is weird. People are...strange. I'm tired of speaking and thinking in Spanish. I need a foot massage. I want a nice cold Stella in a frosty glass. 28 year olds are...young. I have crushes on men born in 1967 apparently. (hello Tino Martinez, I still haven't gotten over you lol.)
What would the male version of me be like? Would he be a cool guy? Maybe yes but I don't think I would date him. (Too long to explain but I will, if asked what I mean here.)
This is the frivolous shit I think about during my lunch break to get my mind off the crazy.
I'm not making any sense to anyone but myself. As is often the case... Welcome to my inner thoughts on a Thursday...
Love the inner thoughts...I have them all the time. I often ask myself if I met me at some party, would I like me? Would I think I was funny? Cool? Interesting? Braggart? Too short? Too tall?
It's like the Matrix - our "residual self image" - am I who I think I am? Do I look how I think I look? Does the image I project match the image in my mind? The more I drink, the deeper I get...
Oh...nice pic. You are dancing dangerously close to a full face shot... ;)
@thomastoth i wonder that too... I would be friends with myself if I met me at a party. If there were a male version of me --- equal in caliber of looks and intelligence and personality (but the male equivalent) -- I think I would want to hang out with him...but not date him. He would have all the bad qualities I have too...
@sunshinephoto5 haha good question! I know it was "word of he year" in 2013. I actually just googled selfie and found out more info to store in the bank of random and somewhat useless info already in my brain lol.
Very cool pic, I love how you're so random. I'm certain I wouldn't be attracted to me either, I'm a little fussy, and the real me is a little too fly by the seat of my pants. Love that you're so real, btw, always looking forward to Sunday. ..
Looks like a melt-down. I'm sure it wasn't but you've been known to create atmosphere. As for marrying someone like me, I don't think so. We get along fine (almost 50 years) because we complement each other.
@tonydebont it wasn't a meltdown...at least I don't recall that it was. Was taken 4 years ago. My husband and I complement each other too. :)
@sknutson thanks, Shain. Your comments are so kind. :) I do more of my Sunday selfies on my Flickr now. I think I would be attracted to the male version of me (I would imagine he'd be decent looking, in fairly good shape, etc., dress ok) but I would probably not like personality qualities that I have which I would need someone to balance me out in a relationship. I'm too stubborn, I worry a lot about money, and I really can be impatient about certain things. Incidentally my husband does not worry...about anything really. He is impatient about different things than me, which works out well actually. Unfortunately he is just as stubborn. The good thing is, we are very alike in ways that help us succeed...we are very focused and driven and when we want something, we just go after it and attack it.
I really like this shot. It is really emotionally meaningful and can be interpreted in a number of ways! So many questions are raised and I just all over love your expression in this capture. This is a definite fav from me! (:
