As an antidote to yesterday’s “Hey everybody, check out my face paint” post…. Hey everybody, check out my naked face!
These photos are completely unretouched. I even skipped my usual tweaking. The lighting in that bathroom must be very warm, I look significantly pinker face-to-face. An old boyfriend [...] 
This year for Halloween, I decided to stay home….
…put on a little makeup…
… and just be myselves.
This reminded me that we, as social creatures in a culture with many taboos and dictates, perform for a live audience nearly every day. Here’s [...] 
Yesterday morning, I spotted an injured bird on my street. Its wings looked fine, but it could only flap for a few feet and seemed to be favoring its right leg. As there are numerous dogs with “big bitey ends” around (one of which was chasing my bike when I noticed the bird), I set [...] 
We interrupt your regularly scheduled time-wasting to bring you this update from my ongoing taking photos to stylists series… Because three and a half months had passed since my last fateful haircut, my hair was the same length all over. I looked like a homely hedgehog. Not the look I was going for. Last Saturday, [...] 
October 24 through 31 is World Go Vegan Week, a celebration of compassion and a time to take action for animals. Today’s guest post is by Cheryl Breuer, a writer and vegan who blogs at Peculiar Girl.

Today, Kelly wrote about the temptation to ‘touch up’ the photos she shares and how this may or may not mesh with her personal beliefs. “Great” I thought, “I’d love to link to this!” As I kept reading, I saw references to ME and realized it might look self-serving to [...] 
Last Saturday, Mr. Jaunty and I attended an MVMA concert featuring the Bruce Nehring Consort. The performance took place in a local church and didn’t call for dressing up… but hey.
Those who take outfit photos past midnight get crummy indoor lighting:

Once upon a time, my grandparents traveled extensively. Over the years, Grandma F. collected numerous charms from around the world. She had a jeweler construct three charm bracelets, one for each of her young granddaughters. Each granddaughter received a bracelet on her sixteenth birthday. To avoid the appearance of favoritism, Grandma assigned these gifts the [...] 
Yesterday, long-long-longtime reader and friend Jacob alerted me to the fact that if you search Facebook for Janey Atkinson, you will find a number of my bald-era photos from over the years— plus lots of charming comments about my looks, accepted with humble thanks from “Janey.” Plenty more where that [...] |
