Geekus Maximus

Okay, so selfies are really not my thing. But @amyhughes told me to do more so it's all her fault! Besides, I was out of ideas for indoor shooting on yet another rainy day...

Tomorrow I join in the fun at a bowl-a-thon to raise moolah for a local suicide prevention, mental health, emotional support and crisis intervention/referral service. I do this pretty much every year--it's the only time I ever bowl and it shows--and it's a hoot. We dress up in silly clothes and try to knock a few down all for a great cause. Good thing they don't rely on per pin donations, or their fundraising efforts would be quite pitiful! Ginormous thanks go to all my friends and fam out there who pulled through and got me far beyond my own personal goal. You folks ROCK!

Also, really huge thanks to all of you who have so kindly commented on my photos--many of which are hardly deserving! It means a lot to me and I do so appreciate them, the follows, and all your amazing images. You are what makes this project so much fun! :-)
This is a real hoot :-) I take my hat off to you for supporting such a worthy cause, have loads of fun.

March 27th, 2011  
@nikkers Well, darn. Humans are a much larger target, way easier to knock down! >-)
March 27th, 2011

I'd say you've bowled everyone over with this shot, Jenn. Great fun. And break a leg (or whatever is said for bowlers) this afternoon. Do take along your iCamera.

@flygirl Fave? What fave? I don't see no stinkin' fave!

Oh what a fun photo! Nice job!
March 27th, 2011  
Great selfie, and what a great cause!
I've been missing seeing your photos on my feed; I think it's just a timing thing. Time to get caught up!
March 27th, 2011  
got to love that shirt! oh, and try to stay out of the gutter! :)
March 27th, 2011  
@aikiuser That's right, I changed my mind and I am making it my wall paper so I can look at it all the time. But if you want I will fav for you. :-D
March 27th, 2011  
Happy Bowling today.
March 27th, 2011  
@flygirl Well, as long as it's your wallpaper, then that's okay. Wow. You're as big a geek as I am! ...off to bowl now, woo hoo!
March 27th, 2011  
Great cause. Keep up the good work. And, it's good to stretch yourself in photography as well. I don't consider myself a very good portraiturist, yet, I can see some growth between some of my earlier work and yesterday's shot. I like this shot btw.
March 27th, 2011  
Great fun shot!
March 27th, 2011  
Priceless! Did you ever think of a career in old black and white films?
March 27th, 2011  
This is FAB Jenn! And well done you - for both the selfie and the cause!! You rock on both counts!
March 27th, 2011

March 28th, 2011

March 28th, 2011
