self-portait tuesday
over the years i've taken hundreds of self-portraits, always in search of the photo that captures the essence of who i am. it's something that i find ridiculous and perverse and totally addictive. today i had a busy morning, a book project that desperately needed finishing, laundry, and lots of other little things to catch up on. i so wasn't in the mood to take pics of myself. i thought i'd just post something from my massive archive of self-portraits, but somehow that felt like cheating. despite my lack of enthusisam, i decided to muddle through and take a few snaps. today, i absolutely wish that i could just lie in bed with the music blaring and prop my feet up on the pillows and just stare off into space. i love my bed! it is super comfy! and my fuschia bedding always makes me feel good. i don't usually wear shoes in bed. julia - the shoes are for you!


Wow, gorgeous gams! Great picture.

Fuschia in the morning must be a great way to wake up.

I too have fuschia bedding! It must be something about the color.

The shoes are great - thanks for sharing. I am a huge fan of the self-portrait. It gives incredible insight into how we think about ourselves, what we like, and what we may change.
Some day we should still knit wings together. But not today.
