I’m the one in a green medieval dress, carrying a dagger. It’s useful when being subjected to a drug search! 😉 CJ ---

Oh, and I’m NOT depressed, as I seem to look in most of the pictures caught of me. (I just noticed in most of the pictures of me so far, I look like I’m about to burst into tears) What’s up with THAT? ---

I thought you looked a little unsure. But how does one bring that up. Next time we’ll get you drunk. Then you’ll loosen up! ---

Talk to the missus. You think I’m allowed to touch the camera? It is to laugh. Seriously, I stayed home today plugging in those two new Dells (and getting some electrical work done so the hot water came back). Bug someone else for a few minutes. I’ll get 'em over to you. Unless you’d like some more wine… ---

And just to prove the fun never stops at the Chance Estate… I just ripped Billy Squier’s ‘Don’t Say No’ album. Woo! ---

Someone who I think was missed in the ID posts: **moi** was the witch from Baltimore/Phila, depending upon where she’s parked her broom. Check with **that darn cat** to determine her location. 😃 ---

I’m a non-digital-camera lame-wad (it was free, what do you want? ;)). My photos are at the developer now, so I’ll stop on the way home from the office. There’s at least two Dopefests on that roll, so I’ll have them sent by Wednesday, hopefully. I don’t want to get on Opal’s bad side! ---

No kidding. The last guy who didn’t send me photos hasn’t been seen since he went on that sudden, unnannounced “camping trip” back in 2001… ---

More pics in the **nyctea** album. Including one of me strippin’ to my underwear :X Every single picture of me so far makes me look like such a goober. I hate it that my smile is always all gums 😛 ---

Once I get my non-digital photos developed (no doubt using stone axes and bear rugs), I will submit them. Thanks again to our host, **JC** (my apologies for the cookie switch). I really hate that I’m so non-photogenic–the pics so far make me look like Quasimodo’s less attractive brother. ---

I completely forgot to even get a little disposable camera, like I usually do. It’s probably just as well-I TAKE horrible pictures. They’re usually blury and either too bright or too dark. (BTW, does it seem that the majority of pictures so far are from the playroom? Hehehehhe) **Opal** , you SO did not NOT look like a goober! In fact, I’m inspired to create a new cartoon doll in your costume, as well as Brooke’s. (If anyone else wants one, let me know). And yes, at first I was very unsure-but by the end of the night, I was much better. (I just look upset, but it’s just my expression-I’ve been told that since I was little) ---

We’re probably all most critical of photos of ourselves. I just think I was making a stupid face in just about every picture taken of me. :X [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/best-dopefest-ever-the-dope-a-ween-aftermath-thread/209659.md?page=3) [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/best-dopefest-ever-the-dope-a-ween-aftermath-thread/209659.md?page=5)
