Oh, man - if I had some skill, I would do it myself now, just to have fun. 
No. <sighs> I look like everyone. I have been approached on the street by complete strangers who say things like, “Steph?” “Anne?” and I say, “no.”
One of them actually looked at me again and said, “are you sure you’re not Steph?”
:rolleyes:
Polish pts think I’m Polish, Dutch bankers think I’m Dutch, Catholics think I’m Irish Catholic and Germans think I’m German.
I should be a CIA spy I have so many identities. 
My sister went to Syracuse–but she had brown hair. Does that help?
Nope. She told us all about that tea thing ages ago! She’s just pretending so you don’t feel bad. (Just kidding. And you’re still special.)
Rigs - You look terrific! I have to put on make-up before I can even look at myself for too long. Wow!
So, it seems my house is not trying to kill me. It’s a vast conspiracy of houses trying to take over the country. No wonder the houses keep getting bigger – they’re winning!
I don’t have the Giant Dope either.
Oh - Ren Faire-goers, please remind me… did we pick a date?
Hey! I have a brilliant idea! How about next week is MMPer pic thread week? **FCM ** aka Pottery Goddess can do the MMP, but then we sprinkle pics of ourselves throughout–I want to know what everyone looks like!
So far, I know MBG and Mika and Lida-oops, anyrose look like. But how about Rue or spats or kawik ?
Forgot I have also seen pics of Drae and Lisslar…
what say you? <channelling Aragorn in the TTT>
rigs, you’re safe.
It’ll be known as “that tea thing”, and I’ll snicker to myself while everyone goes crazy trying to figger it out.
Pinkie swear.
I thought we were thinking about September?
Wow, that is a great idea! I’m for it.
About my bout of extreme nostalgia earlier - I just had to be on a conference call which was stupid. While i was on it, I wrote a letter to my cousin and am dropping it in the mail right now.
I feel a little better. Not much, but a tiny bit.
Wave of the future, they are. 
OOH! OOH! I KNOW! She knows how to make tea. What do I win?
Our current not-so-tentative date is September 9, yes?
I must have missed that but no matter, I’ve marked it down on the calendar. I’m free that day.
Silly man-child. If you only knew…anyone fool can make tea.
Kids today.
Am off to Sam’s (and I’m kinda skeered–I read that thread! I hate Sam’s, but go there once a month. I refuse to shop at Wargmart and to that I hold) <channelling Arwen–very LOTR today>
OK - September 9 it is! Rosie and Spats,, does that work for you both?
yes - weather, health, and scooter-rental dependant
and we could post olds pics, too, so everyone can see how we’ve changed
I think I’ll dig out and scan in some high school shots
I don’t have a scanner, but I think a picture of a picture might work. I think you’d all be amused by what I looked like in high school. 
I’m in. I dunno if I have high school pics, maybe my yearbook, but I certainly could provide pics over the years!
Goodness, rigs, you’re pretty and have a lovely smile. You look a trifle apprehensive about the picture taking. I feel exactly the same way when pictures are taken of me- slightly sceptical.
My parents’ minister’s wife just phoned to invite me and Mr. Lissar to a barbeque on the first of August. That will be lovely. They’re really nice people. I wonder if I should bring something? I’ll fuss for the next two weeks about what I should bring. Wine and something snacky, maybe.
Aw, nonsense - you look fine! Makeup would only create stalkers, says I.
TGIF! I took the afternoon off, just because.
rigs, since I don’t want to overinflate your ego or anything, I can say in all honesty that when I brought your pic to the screen, the dog didn’t run away… Criminy, you look all presentable and everything, silly woman!
Actually, I didn’t take off just because. I took off to do laundry. We’ve got stuff to do tomorrow that’ll keep me away from the washer, so I thought I might take care of it today. That’ll leave me Sunday to not do laundry. Which means I’ll have time to draft the MMP. Unless someone else has something inspired to share, in which case, I’ll yield. Whatever.
I need to see what pics of me I have - I should set up the scanner and have some fun…
That’s all for now. Off to laundry land. Envy me, one and all!
mumblemumblemumble. Not sure. I’m moving up to Hanover, New Hampshire on September the 3rd. This presents two complications:
- The almost three weeks before classes start will be filled with meetings, orientations, and almost certainly a qualifying exam. I have no idea what the schedule for these is. While none of them will happen on a Saturday, it could complicate when I’m available.
- How the hell do I get down there anyway? I’ll have to look into renting a car, I guess.
Okay, so what is it then?
