Natural abberations? There is a tree near my house with green leaves, wait... be patient here... except for this one circular spot where the leaves are turning yellow for the fall. Really, it is a yellow circle of leaves in the middle of all the green leaves and is very interesting to look at.
I personally *very* much like the myspaceface theme... particularly since my hair is finally long enough for the emo-kid fringe.
those of you GenXers who were goth kids (that would be 'goffs' for our UK sect), you probably remember the sardonically ironic pout. you do, don't you? just throw on some NIN or Depeche Mode, put all your piercings back in, channel all that angst you felt in your teen years, and perhaps borrow your fourteen-year-old's Death Cab or Shins tshirt. any mud-coloured faux-vintage tshirt or 70's thriftstore tshirt will do, actually. If you can't find black, make sure it's a vomitous colour like lime, bright orange, yellow or brown.
if you have a particularly 'sick' pair of Vans, Chucks or Converse (bright yellow or checquered is all the rage), take a weird angled shot of your shoes with your face partially obscured by them. it's all about the shoes.
You adminsuperhero are always using your powers to fix your typos, which I find somewhat questionable, but I don't understand the thinking behind that decision.
Yeah, I have the same problem, although I try to resist doing it because it seems like some kind of abuse of power. My highly advanced sense of anality makes resistance difficult, though.
I deleted it is because I composed it and then copied and pasted it from Notepad and a bunch of the sentences were repeated - don't know if you noticed that. I've said this before, and it drives me nuts, but for some reason, even I, with my insatiable enormous abuses of power, can't edit a comment that has an image in it. And my comment had an image in it. So, there are two things I could do - leave it, or delete it. Being the aforementioned anal person that I am, I chose to delete it, so I could fix it and repost it. I was going to post it again but then lonefrontranger posted something similar, so it didn't seem necessary.
lonefrontranger, sure, I will - I feel guilty now...hehe. I had it saved at work - the image and the post. I'll do it tomorrow, just in time for no one to care or bother reading it... ;)
No need to be sorry, either! I loved your description - it made me chuckle. I can't wait to do this...it'll be fun.
