Happy V-Day everybody! To those of you with S.O. or a great pickup line, have some fun and some good sex tonight. Me, I have chocolate courtesy of my dad. So, joy.

My mom's computer is being a bitch about letting me answer comments. *slaps the bitch* Damn thing.

Ooooh, I forgot to mention yesterday, I took my car in for an estimate on how much it would cost to fix it from Monday's bump up and...it's $1200. Whee! Hey, I don't have to pay, so no stress.

I managed to set off the alarm in my mom's store a short while ago. I hit a wrong button. Luckily my dad gave me the security code and I talked to the security company, so no cops.

Due to geniuses at my office, the office digital camera is broken. Because I am a kind, kind person who realizes that many online folk are very curious as to what I look like (and those I've even met are curious since I talk about hair color and new styles all the time), I went out and got film to actually take pictures of myself. Or have others take pictures of me.

One warning though - I am horrible at having my picture taken. You know those people that pose perfectly for a picture? I'm not one of them. I end up looking forced and painful. DUe to bizzare circumstances, I long ago learned that the best pictures of me were not posed shots, but action shots, where I wasn't paying any attention and someone surprised me. The most recent instance was at my grandmother's house last June. Great picture, even though I am eating broccoli in it.

So I have one roll that will be dedicated to a few haphazzard posed shots and dog photography, and one roll for my coworker to surprise me at random times with so I get something that actually looks like me.

Cause you know, I have an ego and want to look good dammit.

I love how the Manila mayor was all "married couples only!" Yeah, right. They may all be Roman Catholic, but Filipinos are not shy about being affectionate.

Thanks for the heads up on the picture-taking. I plan on surprising you a LOT during L3Con. Teehee.

Hee. I totally know what you mean about talking a good picture. I take really BAD pictures. And my friends take good ones. It really sucks.

The key is to become zen about it all. Accept that almost all pictures will be bad, therefore no stress when that moment arises where someone says "I want a picture of you!" Of course there's also the ability to blame *them*, because they obviously suck as photographers too. *snerk* That's what I do, blame the photographer, because they don't know how to direct me.

Just as long as no surprising comes while I'm asleep. Cause my hair and the undereye makeup circles might break the camera. *snerk*
