"me" by summerfield

"me"

page 113, The Man Who Loved Books Too Much by Allison Hoover Bartlett

the word today is "me". the other words in the fourth line of the fourth page were really hard to interpret in photograph so i chose the easiest word.

and that's me right there. i was going to superimpose a tiara and a maple leaf insigna with 50 cents in the middle but i can't find either of those. plus i really like our queen and she's the only one who can pose for a stamp and look good at the same time.

and i promise i won't do it again!

That is a beautiful shot of yourself. Nicely done

@karenann - a fav?!? why, thank you, karenann.

@altadc - hahaha! thank you, kiddo.

@catsmeowb - i didn't think you could see anything. maybe it was the way my laptop's screen was angled last night so all i could see was the outline. holy cow i have big ears, haven't i?! thanks, camille.

a friend on facebook commented that i should also be on a coin! hahahaha! but that's an idea for a selfie, ain't it?

@jannkc - "looks like" are the operative words, jann. i was thinking deeply how not to trip again going from the tripod to the set up after i pressed the self-timer button. :-) thanks, jann.

Great selfie - I love the detail in the silhouette, and how you've turned it into the stamp :)
October 7th, 2011  
Wow fantastic selfie so clever putting your stamp on 365.

@alia_801 - framing courtesy of picnik :-) thanks, alia.

@steeler - yes!!! i got you to say wow (that selfie ain't so bad after all...) thanks, howard.
October 7th, 2011

@danig - you just made me chuckle, DG. i make a wonderful stamp eh? that's funny! thank you, my friend. when we see each other, i will take a picture of you like this because methinks you have a gorgeous profile.
October 9th, 2011  
A beautiful you
October 9th, 2011  
This is a fantastic selfie!! Love the silhouette!
October 9th, 2011  
that is such a beautiful self-portrait! (and a nicer profile than the Queen too!)...I am in awe that you would use a selfie for the word 'me' ....cos I would do almost anything to avoid putting up a current self portrait!

@ilseal - thanks, ms. ilse.

@sbb1980 - thanks, sara.

@patticake - i seriously contemplated on taking a shot of my high school graduation pic and post it. but i want to impress my sister who is an artist to show her some of my 'creativity'. thanks for your comments, patti; they're much appreciated.
October 9th, 2011  
awesome profile pic... well done!
October 9th, 2011  
This is lovely! Great use of the stamp border! I think I am seeing from your pics that you choose the first word of first line, then next day, second word of second line, etc.. in this challenge, right?
October 10th, 2011  
@grecican - thank you, tina.

@espyetta - thank you, MB. not quite. you choose a word from the first line of a page you've chosen, then a word from the second line on the next page, then a word from the third line of the next page, etc. i have sent you the link. yes! yes, please do it, it's really a challenge. you see, i'm just on the seventh day and i've invoked a wildcard already.
