I've been considering this for a while, and finally decided to have a go at it. (That, and I finally scanned some recent pictures of myself. I miss my digicam. cry ) So, here we go, folks! The official CAA Picture Post sticky! Knock yourselves out. Show us your beautiful faces!

Ooh, ooh! I have a pirate costume, too! It has its variations, but this is probably one of the best: The Midget PirateI can't find a decent picture of the other version from the same year, which had higher boots and a yellow vest...I seem to be missing my pictures from the trip with the Waupaca girls. Hope I find them soon...

 The piccy may appear just black and light gray to some of you with Windows XP or whatever it is that doesn't like dark pictures... It was purposely backlit to some degree when I took it, so that I could feel more comfortable posting it online ^^. But anyway... For those that can see it, no I'm not hispanic. That I know of. Of course, half of my parentage is up for grabs because my biological male genetic donor was a wussy b*****d who left my mother without warning the week before I was due. And I therefore have had no desire to meet him. Curse him, everyone.
Though, it did occur to me that I might have half-brothers or sisters by now. That would be kind of cool, assuming that I could somehow meet them without every going near him... And, earlier today I was having fun with mirrors and cameras...  And lastly, I got a kick out of realizing exactly how cluttered my "floor" (make visible quotation marks with fingers here) really is... (Despite opening all the blinds and turning on all the lights, the picture was still dark stressed .)

Merlinic Matrices For those that can see it, no I'm not hispanic. That I know of. Of course, half of my parentage is up for grabs because my biological male genetic donor was a wussy b*****d who left my mother without warning the week before I was due. Wow...I'm nearly drowning in the irony. That's almost exactly what happened to one of my characters. (...In fact, it was Yinda. eek ) Her father left her mother just before she was due. Well, then, of course, her mother died giving birth to her and she was sent to live with her uncle... sweatdrop Okay, so that was kind of a long-shot, but it's still ironic. ...Okay, either my computer or my self is hopeless, but...are you a girl or a guy? I can't tell by your face (what I can see of it...*kicks Windows XP*), and in the other picture, half your body is missing because of the wall. I'm assuming you're female...? But I've learned to never be so sure, because I have a guy-friend named Kelly who sometimes looks like a girl, and I had a girl-friend named Dawn who I at first thought was named Don and was a guy...though that was my teacher's fault. There's a difference between Dawn and Don that my fourth-grade teacher obviously never learned. Oh, and then there's Psy's boyfriend, who has nicer (and longer) hair than most girls and we often wish to dress him up in a dress...But I digress.

*Cackle* Oh, how tempting it would be pretend to be the opposite sex... But I am female. It just cracks me up inside to think that if I felt really crazy I could tell people I was male (and as long as I kept my pronouns straight) they'd never know the difference. I was tempted to do that on a forum once before because I was assumed male for some random reason, so I could've just kept quiet and had my fun... But alas I rarely (never? not that I can well remember, anyway...) lie XD.
The coincidence with the character is amusing, too. I'll share more family tidbits below for my own personal amusment...
I have no siblings, but my two/four (and only) cousins are also ironically also fatherless. (My aunt is just not the most responsible person all around--she has money problems all the time, previously had bad boyfriends, etc, blah blah...) The first two, Dillon and Rachel, are my 'real' cousins... Dillon is a fairly good little guy, but honestly Rachel is already shaping up to be just as annoying and whiney and clingy and plain irresponsible as her mother *rolls eyes*. Apparently when Dillon was first born, my mom considered adopting him from my aunt--which is amusing, considering the fact that I sort of thought of him as a brother way before I knew that. I don't see either of them much nowadays because their mom (re?)married an airforce guy, so they moved out to the base. Technically those two are only half-brother and sister themselves, but I doubt they've ever thought of that. They now have two more stepsisters, the offspring of their stepdad, one of whom has some severe "I want all of Daddy's attention, and I'll take action to get it" problems.
(And as an offshoot of that, I am now one of the few people left in this section of the family with the last name M--; now that my mom and aunt are both married, my nearest fellow M--s are related through my grandparents and living off in a little town called Peculiar.)
I also have two other cousins (the reason for the two/four thing at the beginning), twins younger than both Dillon and Rachel named Nate and Emma. My aunt gave them up for adoption to some of her high school friends when they were born (she was in no shape to handle the financial burden, and I must say it was a good decision), who actually moved near me recently, so I see my not-legal cousins more often than my legal ones now.
Now I feel like writing a story bounced off of parts of this. (I think that's why I let myself keep rambling on about it too, makes me think of ways to make character's families more interesting XD.) I never realized exactly how complicated that side of the family had gotten, considering that it doesn't have that many members (compared to 20-some cousin families, I mean XD)...

That would indeed make for an interesting story and an interesting character.
Kind of reminds me of my cousins, Josh and Erin. Josh and Erin are my Uncle Ed's sons, but they're only half-brothers. Apparently Josh's mom divorced Ed and took Josh with her when he was still just a baby, but she was neglectful. The story goes that my grandma found Josh in his crade alone one day, on his back, crying, and the entire mattress was soaked with...well, not nice stuff for a baby to by laying in. And his mom was nowhere to be found. So Ed's brother Steve and his wife Pat adopted Josh, and two other un-related children (Matt and Melea) and so it's like Josh-has-two-dads-(one-of-whom-is-really-his-uncle)-and-three-siblings-who-aren't-really-related-to-each-other-and-only-one-who's-really-related-to-him...sort of deal. It's crazy. And so because of that, I have a bunch of cousins and half-cousins I can't figure out due to the fact that they're Erin's or Josh's cousins on some remote side of the family and so only barely related to me... @_@ Too confusing.
At any rate, my family's huge and hard to keep track of in the first place. Seven or eight aunts and uncles on both sides, and then all the adult cousins and their children and my third-cousins and third-cousins once removed, etc, etc...
And just today my sister said she hoped I could come to live with her and her husband in Tennessee next summer so I could get away from Mom and Dad and be able to earn more money working menial jobs like bussing tables and so forth. eek And I just might, since Maggie'll be in Taiwan and I never see my school friends in the summer anyway...
