Errrr… What I meant was, please excuse the aforementioned blue glow _as well as_ the bandanna. I don’t think I meant that the glow came from the bandanna as well as the PC. You knew that, but when I read my previous post, it just looked…wrong.

OK, I’m shutting up now. Enjoy the blue glow.

What blue glow? I didn’t see any blue glow. Maybe I’ll go look at the bandanna and see if this so-called “blue glow” is coming from it.

Hmmmm. No blue, huh? From here it looks like I was left out in the cold a couple minutes too many.

And you’re not a pumpkinhead; rather attractive, actually. 🙂

Well, you only live once, and I’ll sleep when I’m dead. And [here’s a grainy, low-resolution picture of me](http://www.home.pon.net/phoebeg/aye.gif). (My new digital camera is a few weeks away.)

If that’s not good enough, just take [this picture](http://www.dubna.ru/rastor/Toponym/Kurchatov-43.jpg), and imagine him being blonde. That’ll be close enough.

Since we’re playing _“I’ll show you mine, if you show me yours”_ 😉 I guess I’ll join in. Unfortunately, this is the only photo of me I have online. I was a couple of years younger and about 30 pounds heavier. Old pair of glasses as well. Very unflattering.

_[Beauty Personified](http://ca.f1.pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/beautypersoni/detail?.dir=/4ce0&.dnm=Christopher+001.jpg)_

It’s me looking down on my birthday cake. Looks like I’m either making my wish, or just feeling down. Probably both. It’s from a larger color photo - my parents are standing behind me - which I used to test my copier/printer/scanner, which is now hiding from me - it’s a piece of junk, at least printing wise.

I guess I’ll have to make up with it so I can scan some better, more recent photos of myself. Funny thing is, I tend to avoid being photographed. During one summer vacation when I was younger, I managed to avoid showing up in every single photo my family and friends took. And the cameras were very busy.

_ **XJETGIRLX** … in [living](http://mostlyinedible.com/images/photos/short5.JPG) color._

My, you’re gorgeous. A true punk/nerd-girl beauty. :wide-eyed awe:

Now I’m even more lonely and depressed, living in a town practically devoid of anyone from 18 to 35 in age. ☹

(Thanks for the link to the [Luminarium](http://www.luminarium.org/lumina.htm) on your homepage though.)

Anyhoo…
