FGR today wanted us to take a picture of "me and my camera". I'm afraid I am an over-achiever.

Yes, there is my camera, but there is also my 430EX being fired remotely @1/32 power. On top of the flash is a plasticware bowl with a rectangle cut to fit the flash. It is being fired using the cheap eBay remote flash trigger I've been using for more than a year now.

Instead of using my wireless remote trigger, I recruited my special monkey to shoot the shot.

And finally, Jamie joined me in a special Bokeh Wednesday appearance. HBW!

Strobist info: most of it is spelled out above. As you can see, the 430EX is being fired at the ceiling with a homemade light dome. It is positioned about midway between me and the camera. It is sitting on my lightweight auxillary tripod.

Flickr Group Roulette: Fridge Portraits

I've done a fridge shot before, so I wanted to kick it up a notch. Plus, I had creamer on the mind, having finished up a bottle this morning.

Ok, so I'll admit it. I actually went out the the store... to get the shot! I did need/want the creamer... but it was mostly a happy bonus!

Aaaaand, I even went to both stores! (The first just wasn't working right for me, and I know too many folks on that shift... and was sure one was about to totally catch me with their fridge door open for-ever! Besides, the creamer was on a better sale at the other store. so there!)

When I saw that FGR was doing Interpreting Beatles Songs for today, I knew I had to participate! I grew up listening to the Beatles (no, I'm not that old - they were my father's favourite group, and will always be one of my favourites as well). Additionally, as soon as I saw today's choice, I immediately knew which song I would chose. No, it's not my favourite Beatles' song (though it would be up there - and I think it was my sister's favourite at one time), I thought it would be fun to do a photo of it.

But when she turns her back on the boy

He creeps up from behind...

I played the song on repeat the whole time while I was setting up the shot, taking the photos, editing them, and uploading to Flickr.

Day one-hundred and sixteen of my 365 Days challenge.

Hat Trick

Previously "Holy Hat, Batman!"

Ahem. It's all Flickr Group Roulette's fault.

4 groups today:

Quotes and Quotations -- The Jump For Mikey -- Half Nekkid Thursdays -- Black and White Self Portraits

3 out of 4, thank you very much. There's no effing way I'm jumping in this particular state :) I should add... I didn't really need the hand, it just made for better composition:)

How does "Quotes and Quotations" fit in here you may ask? Well I didn't have a box:

Quoting Justin Timberlake:

1: Cut a hole in a box

2: Put your junk in that box

3: Make her open the box

From the comments, some great phrases and quotes:

Hat Trick (a good title too)

Men Without Hats

Home is where you hang your hat.

You can leave your hat on (and that song will be stuck in my head all day)

Sorry Mom. And all you assholes at the office -- not a damn word.

Thank you for viewing.

For Flickr Group Roulette - Stup!d Stup!d

I was on my way to my cousin's house for a family reunion meeting and it was looking like it was going to rain. I was planning on taking my SP when I got into her town (very quaint and I figured I would find a cool location), but the rain was getting ready to start any minute. I pulled off the main street onto this narrow, gravel road, drove down a while and saw this beautiful field of dry hay. I thought that it would make a good backdrop to the black dress I was wearing. I quickly pulled over, grabbed my tripod and camera and ran down off the little road to take this. I had to move quickly because it was starting to thunder and lightening and drizzle. After I got back on the main road it started pouring. Maybe not so stupid for you Flickr folks, but I bet that everyone at my reunion meeting would have thought how stupid this was to do!

I little bit better bigger and on black.

For FGR - *Fridays I'm in Love*.

Now, everyone loves (for the most part!) their significant others, children, family, themselves, etc... today, I just didn't feel like subjecting the two guys in my life to me getting the "perfect" shot. I decided to take a different approach, since I'm more patient then they are.

I love my ears for so many reasons. This is my most favourite one though, and I've nicknamed it as my "elf ear." The biggest part is them giving me the ability to hear. My eyesight has been on a somewhat steady decline (I think it's leveled out for the time being) and my hearing has, I believe, made up for it. I don't know what I would do if I didn't have my hearing.

This is the extent of the body modification that I do... I still would love to get a targus piercing, and I've been really leaning on some other piercings also. The problem is, I don't have the money right now to do it. I know it's not that expensive, but priorities, especially with Christmas coming up.

One of the things I totally love about these plugs, and to the other pair I own is that they're wood. They are so comfortable, they don't ever itch, and they absorb that awful ear cheese smell. I would wear them all the time, if I could!

Anyway, I need to get started on the last day of the work week (YAY!! WEEKEND!), before my boss comes in and yells (kidding!) at me to get to work.

Happy Black Friday to all down in the States!

For FGR and Flickr Hot Tub Party

Im actually home with a very bad headache attack (yay for stress) but after a whole morning of sleep I feel a little bit better. At least I felt good enough to give today's FGR a shot...it's not the best cloning pic, but considering how I feel i think it turned out pretty good. yay for mini me! :)

The stress part isnt about being stressed so much btw, but more getting less stressed. The last few months have been crappy and it all seems to work out now (I have a job I love, my house is sold and my bf is moving from UK to here in 2 months) so my body is throwing in a 'getting rid of some stress' day. Usually that means a day of severe headache. That is obviously crap but it also means im getting better, yay!

For FGR - Legs Up Against the Wall.

I took the tree down today, and wanted to use the lights just one more time before they're put away for the year...

Also, it's a little depressing knowing that FGR is going to be gone in less than a week. The group has helped me out so much with ideas on doing my self-portraits, and has given me something to look forward to each day. I know that my photos may not be the greatest, but it was still something to push my limits on what I could do with each shot. I hope that I have at the least improved a bit over the short time I've been with a group. I know that it has added different things to my project, and helped me gravitate from the usual shot of just my face.

I really have been debating on leaving the group before the 31st, but, I decided that I would hang on though until the end. There's no point in quitting anyway. I'm hoping that I still can follow some which way (including Abe's group! Thanks Abe!), and I do have some ideas on what I can do in the near future.

It's not the last day, but I'd still like to thank all the Asshats in bringing the group into existence, and allowing me to participate in their little bit of fun. :)

Minecraft day - 25/04/2011

For 365 Days, FGR, TRP, and February's Alphabet Fun.

February 8th - Single Source Club, "Tell me punk. Do you feel lucky?", and The Letter H.

*Single light source: refrigerator

"Milk was a bad choice" - Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy

H is for hat.

Isn't that thing ugly? It came in a beach bag with a beach towel and sunglasses that I bought at JC Penney's when I was a freshman in high school. I don't think I've ever worn it in public, and why I've kept it all these years is beyond me. Maybe for a moment such as this? Who knows. I just kind of put together random clothes... didn't want to look too snazzy sitting on the floor in front of the refrigerator at midnight with a carton of milk between my legs. Why? Because when Ron Burgundy fell, he fell hard.

"It's so damn hot!"

Today's FGR group is in my secret life. I have seen many hilarious examples of what people's secret identities are. I struggled all day with coming up with an appropriately zany secret identity. As the day wore on, I realized that many people were coming clean with serious issues. Finally... I decided to do the same.

I've struggled with an issue in my life that manifested when I entered college. In short, I would suddenly pass out with no reason. At first, people had me convinced that it was because of my excessive drinking. That made sense. Drink more than a lot/wake up in the Red Cedar or the girl's dorm.

But then I began to understand that there was more to it. Sometimes I could win at quarters and have no problems, but other times I would pass out at a block party.

I decided to seek help. After much testing, my roommate's girlfriend's best-friend's other-friend's roommate (a nursing student) properly diagnosed me with an allergy to a specific color.

I am allergic to porraceous colors. When I view them, I experience uncontrolled hypersomnia.

Of course, with this new self-understanding, I was able to enjoy the remainder of my college career unfettered with a fear of excessive alcohol consumption. As long as I avoid colors in the prasinous family while doing so.

Since college, I have had only a few recurrences of this dreaded malady. A New Year's Eve party here, a wedding reception there. Just a few.

I'm glad to finally release my secret into the public domain. I hope you will continue to support me.

This is my three hundred fifty third self portrait for 365 Days.

7 November 2007

The fluorescent desk lamp was used as a modeling lamp to assist focusing. The 430EX was used remotely as the main light to add a pop of brilliance and catchlights.

Extreme Expressions for FGR today. I was torn between this and this

Rather handily I've been meaning to do something along these lines this month for "explode" for the HPAD scavenger hunt. I've got a shocking temper - a plate smashing, screaming, vicious one. Luckily I've learnt not to explode too often but with a year of sleep deprivation it's starting to happen more often again.

For FGR and Urban Legends.

Bride cooks herself from the inside out by excessive use of tanning machines in the week before the wedding.

(Sorry, it won't let me cut and paste - and I'm not typing it all out!)

I'm very fair-skinned and avoid tanning so it was interesting turning myself orange!

Thanks to Obsidian Dawn at deviantart.com for the flame brushes and playingwithbrushes for the texture.

For FGR and Playing Dress-Up

I had been planning some cat bokeh for a while but was saving it for Hallowe'en, but then I remembered that I had a cat costume which I'd forgotten about so I thought I'd bring it out for today's challenge. I used to be the Literacy co-ordinator at school and often made everyone dress up in the name of literacy - ha ha! The new co-ordinator sadly isn't as fancy dress orientated.

For 365 Days, FGR and TOTW.

April 20th - Toilet Computing and www.flickr.com/groups/themefun/discuss/72157616965174332/.

Yes, that is my laptop between my feet on top of the toilet. The design is a skin that I ordered from www.skinit.com/skins.php (will add link to website when I get home... I'm uploading from school). Purdy, huh?

Copycat: This one goes out to not siskel and her On the pot shot. Copying this shot fit perfectly with today's FGR theme but there's another reason I picked it. The first line of her photo's description reads, "No, not that pot. I don't do drugs. Never have, never will."

I share this in common with her; I have never done drugs and I've never needed to experiment with them to know that they are not for me. And with today being "four twenty" (stupid), I thought it would be fitting for ME to advocate some anti-drug fun.

DON'T DO DRUGS KIDS! lol

TRF: Ok, so I do drink, but that's it :-)

For FGR - My Pet Peeves. (One of many that I have!)

One of my biggest pet peeves is promptness. If there's one thing that will send me into a blind rage is either being late for something, or having to wait on someone, who is late.

Thanks to some key people in my past (one for always being late, and the other who drilled on being prompt, the Lombardi Method - always be 10 minutes early), this has turned into a complex/pet peeve of mine.

I'm sure the waiting on someone else is more for my impatience, but as for myself, I'm always at least 10 minutes early for any appointment.

*Thanks to Carol for letting me borrow his watch!*

For FGR: Middle Fingers and Work Bathroom Wednesdays

I had court today. Not my comfortable tribal court, where everybody knows my name. Nope, this was big scary city district court. I was crammed into a smelly (yes, smelly) courtroom with at least one hundred people who were arrested and charged with some sort of crime. (I wasn't one of them, my client was.)

And let me say this, people: when you are a defendant in court, do not dress like it's any other day of the week. Do not wear jeans. If you must wear jeans, don't sag them below your ass. No, your track "suit" does not count as an actual suit, I'm sorry. Take your hat off. Unless you are active military, do not wear camo, and especially don't wear two kinds of camo to create a camo ensemble. And please, for everybody's sake, bathe.

~~~~~~~~~~~~End Rant~~~~~~~~~~~~

For FGR and My Pet Peeves.

I hate it when someone grabs my ass in public, even when my boyfriend does it when he thinks no one is watching. I hate it, hate it, hate it.

And I also can't stand it when I see other people do it. It looks degrading to me, I'm not sure why.

My friend Rafa picked My Monday Music Advice for today's Flickr Group Roulette pick. I was going to skip the roulette today, couldn't bring myself to not play along since Rafa was the pickr.

Also, it is timely since I downloaded a new song today for my heavy rotation. It is #3, below, and has a good story to go with it.

So here is my playlist:

#1 — In a Different Light by Doug Stone

Simply, I love the lyrical quality. This is going on the list of songs I'll sing for karaoke if forced to sing again (which I plan to avoid).

#2 — Samson by Regina Spektor

I asked Dyxie for a new song that I could add to the iPod, and she gave me this one. Haunting.

#3— Wrong Impression by Natalie Imbruglia

This song was on heavy rotation on the cruise ship. I loved the hook, but couldn't make it out. When I got back home, I Googled the lyrics I could remember... which were wrong. Then we went to dinner at Red Robin and I heard it again!

Then on Friday, I heard this played at a local bar. I put in four words of the lyrics into Mobile Google and found the song while still at the bar! I added this song this morning!

#4 — Bubbly by Colbie Caillat

I smile whenever I hear it. Thank you to Tammy for turning me on to Bubbly. BTW, when I did a search for "Bubbly Colbie Caillat" in Flickr, my icon photo is 4th in the list!

#5 — Now That I've Found You by Terri Clark

Damn good song by the hottest woman in a cowboy hat. In a stunning coincidence, Grateful Clem is wearing her hat here.

#6 — Buttons by The Pussycat Dolls

Awesome song to west coast swing or whip dance to. Also, my favorite radio jock show, Kidd Kraddick in the Morning, has their hot girls do a video to it. I'm male; sue me.

#7 —Who Says You Can't Go Home (Featuring Jennifer Nettles) by Bon Jovi & Jennifer Nettles

Kickin' song.

#8 — I Do by Paul Brandt

Lyrical song that I love. I did a tribute for it.

#9 — I Thought It Was You by Doug Stone

#10 — Too Busy Being In Love by Doug Stone

#11 — Why Didn't I Think of That by Doug Stone

Singable songs that I love. I've either sang these or will sing these at karaoke.

#12 — Hooked On a Feeling by B.J. Thomas

A little above my usual voice range, singing this is exercise for me. Yes, I take singing seriously even if I suck at it. "I Do" works the other end of my vocal range along with "Your Man".

#13 — No Doubt About It by Neal McCoy

The first song I ever sang at karaoke. Good for my vocal range, it is lyrical and has easy words. It makes me smile.

#14 — Red High Heels by Kellie Pickler

I, uh, um, like the message.

#15 — Starts With Goodbye by Carrie Underwood

Chick song. I like her performance.

#16 — Butterfly by Crazy Town

Loved this since the opening credits of the Jack Nicholson movie, "Something's Gotta Give". Also, puts me in a strip bar mood if that ever is necessary. ;)

#17 — Black Velvet by Alannah Myles

Oh, yeah. This is also a mood song. Slow, steamy southern nights. Heated passion. That mood. *grin*

#18 — Your Man by Josh Turner

The perfect western polka song. Good for stretching my lower register.

#19 — Not Counting You by Garth Brooks

The perfect two-step song. I feel like dancing whenever I hear it.

#20 — Baby Girl (2nd Version) [Remix] by Sugarland

I just love to sing this song. The inflections are perfect, and I can hit 'em. I have been a voice mimic since seeing Rich Little, and that is especially true when singing. Dave disappears and out pops Jennifer Nettles.

#21 — As Good As I Once Was by Toby Keith

Because the truth hurts.

So there you go! Total playing time 1:16:17 and it fits on one CD. :-)

Flickr Group Roulette is doing a copycat thing today -- one of the more memorable shots to cross the group's page was Dave's -pesto mortar-. I wasn't convinced at the time... I'm pretty sure it more resembles Mr. Dick Dickhead here :)

FWIW, I was gonna use a real dildo, but hell, my MOTHER looks at this shit sometimes.

You really need to see the full pornographic version here.

I can't make up my mind, but I'm tempted to use this shot for my 365... it would be the first color shot this year... dammit.

For

FGR and SOOC Fridays

TRP and

Workspace Cribs (aka Rate my Office)

Welcome in- just me lounging at the office, Let me show you around- 3 phone lines, state of the art electronics (Laptop, GPS, 4 radios (communications), 2 CD players, 2 am/fm radios, 3 heat/air systems, MP3 player, ice chest, a BED (who else has that in their office) and enough drugs to "cure what ails you"... if you know what i mean...;)

On top of all that, an ever changing view, and the ability to go 130 mph if needed (to escape those pesky meetings or to just outrun the law)- Well, thanks for stopping by, remember that if you ever need to meet, just call- Hell, I'll bring the office to you- we make house calls....

For 365 Days, FGR, TRP, TOTW, and July's ABC Soup.

July 2nd - Quotably Suitable for Framing, Brown and Beige Unlimited!, Accessorize, and The Letter B.

B is for bridge.

This bridge is connected to a bike trail I sometimes ride and crosses over Dry Creek. The creek's name is perfectly suitable, as I believe it is the same creek that I jumped over on day 154. Not a lot of water, but it's still nice scenery.

Accessory: I'm wearing all brown, but I especially wore my brown sunglasses today rather than my purple ones that match my bike.

TRF: I'm also wearing brown flip flops. Remind me to never bike in flip flops again, mmm'k?

Praise the bridge that carried you over.

Day 142

For my 365, for Flickr Group Roulette and the group In The Car,

and for threesixtyfive's As.sim.i.lat.ed | Wed.nes.day theme "Pulp Fiction Dance".

Also for Girls' Theme Week Live's theme 5 New Things.

The 3rd thing you get to know about me is this:

I love sports cars.

I have always been a sport car person.

As a kid I loved Lamborghinis.

When I met my husband-to-be, I was thrilled that he had a Trans Am.

When we got married, we didn't want a limo...we rented 4 red Trans Ams instead.

My favourite car now is probably a Dodge Viper. And of course, my Mustang :)

The GameON Autism Golf Programme is the brain child of the Ernie Els Foundation, based in Florida. It is a significant developmental programme in the Els for Autism Centre, an educational facility for autistic young people.

For FGR and 80s Songs.

The 80s spans quite a changing time for me - from my first love of music (Adam Ant at the age of 9)- through Duran Duran then onto goth thenindie. I had lots of ideas for today but had to go with my goth tendencies as She Sells Sanctuary by the Cult is still one of my all time favourites. I also have a soft spot for Serpent's Kiss by the Mission (hangs head in shame). Ah, that video brings back memories (it's so tongue in cheek BTW).

This didn't turn out quite like I originally intended but I've been looking for a reason to use this texture for a while now so I'm happy.

Thanks to Algree at deviantart.com for the trippy texture and leschick for the grungy one.

Today, FGR gave me the chance to think about what I would do if I had a million dollars. Well, I am choosing to think as if I won the lottery, as opposed to having worked for the millions. If I'd earned the money, I'd behave much differently.

What would I do with a million dollars? In large part, I would behave like Psychochatter describes (the money part :). I'd put almost all of it into some financial instrument, reserving some for myself to have fun.

So... fun. What then? I came up with two options.

Option A - Have some beer.

Option B - Buy a Triumph Rocket III Touring to ride to work every day.

Yes, I'd still work. And why not? I have nothing to lose! Go ahead and fire me. I'll go riding or have more beer.

So, which of these options do you think I would pick? Beer or Bike? Leave me a comment with your thoughts.

FGR today is focusing on Spot the Loonie - things in the spirit of Monty Python. Well, Sit On My Face is my favourite Python song, so I had to go with that one!

Sit on my face and tell me that you love me

I'll sit on your face and tell you I love you too

I love to hear you oralize

When I'm between your thighs

You blow me away.

Sit on my face and let my lips embrace you

I'll sit on your face and then I'll love you truly

Life can be fine if we both sixty nine

If we sit on our faces

In all sorts of places

And play till we're blown away.

Wow, it has been a year of FGR. I started on Day 3, when I announced that I was a Silhouette Whore. I've been doing this for a while.

This photo is a copycat of my pal Dyxie who was copycatting Libray Ann on Day Two.

Thanks Trial and Clem for one of your few good ideas: FGR.

Happy Birthday!

For FGR – Well, I have no clue what this is called, just go check...

Since =Tom= is such a studmuffin he's having us do all kinds of stuff, it's all written out below.

3 : testimonials entered for dCapFoto, lintmachine, and mr_moog.

6 : I took this picture, which can be added to 6 different Flickr groups:

FGR - no intro necessary.

Happy Sunday - since it's a happy Sunday!

Funny Faces - I think my extreme grimace of a manic smile qualifies anytime.

Presents Gone Wrong - One of our friends found this glass banana in Netto (a discount supermarket that always have weird things) a long time ago, and decided it was a perfect gift for us.

Ugly Underwear Club - Joe Boxer on the head, nothing can be more ugly. At least not a pair of beserker boxer shorts.

And lastly, Things you may not know about me - and the reason why this is being added to that group is for the last part of the 3-6-5.

5 :

1. I always have a single hiccup after swallowing my first mouthful of soda.

2. I own a glass banana

3. My wife tries to talk me out of it each time I consider shaving off my beard

4. I create weird food concoctions, e.g. liver paté with remoulade

5. My left toenail always wear through my nice socks

There you go =Tom=, with only a little copy & paste from pikespice.

Today's group on Flickr Group Roulette asks us to list "thirteen things about you." I made up a list of 27, intending to pick the top 13. After running the list past a few people, they urged me to reveal all 27. So be it!

This is the first list. The second will come after I freeze my butt on my new (to me) bike.

1. I have never lived alone

13. I don't have any tattoos... yet.

Hope you enjoyed this list. The next may or may not be more revealing. :)

For 365 Days, FGR, and February's Alphabet Fun.

February 20th - bad habits and The Letter T.

T is for too much to do, not enough time!

My bad habit: procrastination.

I'm a student, so of course I'm a procrastinator. I've learned that I apparently only function best when under pressure, and I have no idea how to start working on things when I have a reasonable amount of time to complete the thing in question. I can try to sit down and work on something, but I end up losing focus and get easily distracted by so many shiny objects... like, the sudden need to reorganize my closet, or picking out clothes to wear the next day, or Flickr... so many things that seem to be more important at the time. Then before I know it, I have hella shit to do and what seems like not enough time to do it in! Story of my life... yet somehow I end up magically making it all happen :-)

I think you should.

For Flickr Group Roulette: Life Is Messy

Life is especially messy when you're me. Fortunately, I married a mostly-tidy person, and he keeps the house presentable, but he doesn't touch the clutter in my bathroom.

You can hardly blame him. Once a year or so I get a bug up my butt and clean/reorganize, but that hasn't happened lately.

Flickr Group Roulette: Low Down

I was pretty quick to jump on the flickr group roulette when i realized it could easily disregard my face today... I do not feel well... at all!

however, on a happier note: I get to display my mis-matched monkey socks... and this song was discovered today and strikes an oh so happy and familiar chord for this time... yay!

I turn around you're there again and suddenly you're gone

I wanna get to know you but I don't know who you are

Your the kind of girl who makes me start to lose my mind

I wanna get together but you're oh so hard to find

I see you when I'm at the Starbucks as you're walkin out the door

I see you when I'm rentin' movies, when you're leaving the store

I need an opportunity, there's something I wanna ask

I never seem to ever get the chance

I wanna get to know you and to get you knowing me - Jesse McCartney

The PC Engine was the Japanese version of the TurboGrafx 16. I didn't see an explanation for why the American versions weren't represented.

For 365 Days, FGR, TRP, and TOTW.

April 10th - Booze 'n' Bokeh, Too Cheap for a Studio Portraits, and Cinematic Moments.

HAPPY DAY 100 TO ME! I can't believe I've already made it this far, and I haven't missed a day either! Woo hoo! Maybe I'll have a celebratory buttery nipple shot (1 shot Bailey's Irish cream, 1 shot butterscotch schnapps) to start the day right :-D

My regular "studio" is our guest bathroom. It has great lighting and a long, bare wall that works great for a backdrop. I shot in the living room instead today, with the Bailey's on the end of the kitchen counter. The lighting adjustment was kind of a pain. I opened all the windows behind the camera, but because it is overcast today it didn't produce much light. I turned on the living room light and the dining room light (off camera to the right) and kept the kitchen light (above camera) off. I had to play with my exposure settings a bit before being satisfied with the light, hence the slightly crappy bokeh.

Cinematic Moment: "That was one crazy party. I am hung over.

I woke up on the floor of some Japanese family's rec room, and they would NOT stop screaming.

I ate a big, red candle." - Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy

TRF: My dad, Eric, and I are driving to Fremont Newark tonight for a memorial/"celebration of life" for my great uncle.

**FGR Celebrates it's Birthday with Tributes and CopyCats**

We all know that Clem is a KNOB,

so it was obvious to me that there was no one better to pay tribute to!

After all, this whole freakin thing is his fault!!!

And I think this guy had something to do with it too!

For FGR - Instrument Porn.

I can't really post a story or anything today... my mind is filled with other things, like getting ready to tonight (Longtail's Christmas party at the the Citadelle), cleaning house and doing laundry (Since I probably will be hung over tomorrow), and also with some really recent family trama. Just remember, that life is short... anything can happen.

So, this photo is rushed, with the processing and everything, but I like it.

I just wish I learned how to play guitar better.

Okay then…on this site www.flickr.com/groups/gameon/ we are being asked to share things about ourselves that you may not know.

I have decided to do this know as I travel towards the end of my 365days project.

Being honest with my photos on a daily basis has been very strange at times as I am really quite a private person…but I am glad I have done this….I am glad that many of you have shared my journey with so much warmth, humility and love. I never expected anything…but what I received has been a revelation in how wonderful the world truely is.

I was born in Hammersmith London on May 4th 1961.

I had a sister, named Jane, who died before I was born but who I think about with love every day.

I have a brother who I have not seen for 7 years. I love him but it’s not reciprocal.

My father was a London Taxi driver now retired.

My mother was an accountant now retired.

I love them both unconditionally, although I do not have contact with them, their choice not mine.

My grandparents meant the whole world to me and I often dream about them.

I was married at 18 and divorced at 20, leaving behind damage both physically and mentally.

I learnt only this year that he took his own life a few years ago. www.flickr.com/photos/lupusphotos/488511290/in/set-721575...

I trained at the Guildhall School of Music and Drama having secured a place at the age of 13.

I played Sally Bowles in ‘Caberet’ in Kensington London and was personally acclaimed by critics who had seen every professional production.

I ran a theatre school in Battersea for 18 years teaching over 200 young people every week.

I was the first group in London to accept children with learning and physical difficulties.

I met my husband, Ray Russell www.rayrussell.co.uk/ in 1983 at a Lulu concert when I was going out with the drummer.

We have been married for 22 years.

I have sat next to Tina Turner and she liked my jeans....lol...

I have been mugged three times.

I plant a Salix tree and a yellow rose bush wherever I live.

I had a stroke at 34 years old.

I had cancer at 37 and went into a coma when I was 39.

I once took a man to court for wrecklessly driving through a flock of pigeons and killing them.

I had to collect the ‘evidence’, put it in my freezer to present to court. I won and he was fined.

I have a passion for cocktail cherries, rain, the Navajo Indians, forensic science and pencils.

I lived in a haunted house.

I am frightened by bats.

I dislike cold custard, cruelty in any form, and especially dishonesty as I have seen so much and been hurt by what I have seen.

If there is anything you wish to ask me you are welcome…and I will answer…

Today's fgr theme was magazine portraits, so I spent some time this morning rummaging through the magazines in our house trying to find something I could use. Unfortunately, I tend to recycle most of my magazines after I'm done reading them so I couldn't find any magazine covers with men on them (like this Batman one). But Trish doesn't recycle hers until she's cut out any articles she wants to keep (meaning we have magazines sitting around the house from like 2002), so I had LOTS of options if I wanted to use Reese Witherspoon's or Oprah's head.

Sadly, the only magazine I could find with a male's head on it was some Teen Vogue with Justin Bieber on it. I did manage to find my most recent Game Informer, though, on which Lara Croft (of the Tomb Raider games) graced the cover. I wanted to use the more manly photo, so I think my choice was clear...

And yes, I do realize that Trish and I can't blame the Teen Vogue or Game Informer subscriptions on teenaged kids.
