Cool, I can use the same link from the other thread: kind of a “[history of Jenny](http://www.flickr.com/photos/misnomer971/sets/603396/).” 🙂 My face has changed very little in 34 years, except for getting gradually fuller… ---

I’ll play, too, since I raided the photo albums and scanned all manner of things just for this purpose.

**GusNSpot** - coolest. picture set. ever. **TheOnlySaneOne** - I had to LOL - your smile is the same as when you were a kid 🙂 [here’s me at 5 or so](http://www.q5media.com/jess/mud.gif) covered in mud in the neighbor’s driveway. It was originally a color pic - i’m not that old 🙂 [here’s me 2 years ago](http://www.q5media.com/jess/weightloss.jpg) my weightloss “spread”. I think now even tho I’m a little heavier I am ALOT more tone. My face is definitely thinner now. ---

> [@Beware of Doug](#): > > Bless your heart. (And no, I’m not a Southerner, so I mean that the nice way.) And you have a lovely smile and a melodious username. What is its origin? Heh. I am Southern (though there are those that will argue about that), so I know just what you mean. Thank you, though. “Harimad-sol” is one of the names of the protagonist of one of my favorite books, _The Blue Sword_ by Robin McKinley. I mainly chose it because “Harry Crewe” would have made people think that I was a guy, and “Angharad” was a bit too much altogether. > [@](#): > > Your saying that almost makes up for the [meetup.com](http://meetup.com) event I got lost trying to get to tonight. 38 years old and I’m driving around like a madman looking for _a karaoke bar._ And me a profesisonal musician. Dear Og, I need a life. Glad to be of some service. I wouldn’t think professional musicians get to karaoke bars that often. Did you make it, or give up? Lives, I find, are overrated, but if you find one, will you share a little with me? I’m probably about due for one. (would you like to natter with me by e-mail? seems a good opportunity, since I couldn’t find a reason just to e-mail you randomly) Smooth as ever, that’s me. ---

I don’t have any kid pics scanned in right now – but there’s a good one I need to scan from about age 10. Anyways: [This one is age 19 or 20, I believe](http://garnet.acns.fsu.edu/~rmyers/pics/Piano1.jpg) [More recent (within the last year)](http://garnet.acns.fsu.edu/~rmyers/pics/monstre1.jpg) ---

I don’t have any from when I was _really_ young online, but here’s a few… [In this one](http://pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/randomwolf70/detail?.dir=52b5&.dnm=ee61.jpg&.src=ph), I’m about 19. Yes I’m in a cemetary; the name on the stone is actually Whorf, purposely partially obscured by my skirt 'cause I thought it was funny. [Here](http://pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/randomwolf70/detail?.dir=52b5&.dnm=5077.jpg&.src=ph), I’m about 23. I played guitar for about 12 years, till I started working a second job and ran out of free time. Frankly, I’m a better writer than player, so it wasn’t really going anywhere anyway. [My favorite photo of myself](http://pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/randomwolf70/detail?.dir=52b5&.dnm=c1b8.jpg&.src=ph) is from the 1998 NHL Awards; the disembodied arm next to me belongs to Sergei Samsonov. People who see the full photo and don’t know who he is often see me in an off-white dress next to a guy in a tuxedo and say, “Oh, you were married?” Either that or that I look like Carrie Fisher, which I honestly don’t see. [Most recent](http://pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/randomwolf70/detail?.dir=52b5&.dnm=e91d.jpg&.src=ph) is this one from a Pow Wow that I went to last year - I’m the one on the far left. I’ve lost about 10 lbs since then and look a lot more like the third photo, except my hair is longer now. ---
