I think it's the glasses and lack thereof. Also, polkadots are a very youth-emphasizing clothing choice, at least in my cultural lexicon. In a manner similar to pigtails.

Dimonite, she does indeed look like she wants a belly rub! If you are clever enough, you might be able to get one in before she remembers she's not supposed to Like That Sort Of Thing! My cat is the same way. She will usually attack, but if you catch her off guard, you'll get the Insata-Purr before she remembers that there is no touching of the belly!

Hmm... One of my cats will let me get away with rubbing her belly.
But she attacks anyone else who does.

I guess being the only one who regularly feeds her gets me lots of bonus points.

It's okay, he played dead and got away when she put him down to play with him some more. Still, it was fun to watch her catch him.

Re. looking younger: a lady today was surprised when I told her I was 26, and said she thought I was more like 19-20. I am okay with this ^_^

Also: HORLY CARP HAIRCUT I mean, I know I told her to be brutal and that I wanted it around my shoulders, but... whoa On the other hand, my split ends are definitely all gone, and I won't need a haircut again for a while...

Other fun fact: the ocean is just on the other side of those trees.

Now that can be arranged. Indeed, it has been arranged.

I'm thinking server crash, honestly.

I have photos from my 4th production of HMS Pinafore last week - on this occasion playing the horrible Dick Deadeye.

I specifically made my facial hair lopsided and patchy for the part:

Egad!

I like the ones with the cat


I took another photo of my hair to show what it's like after being washed. Still not totally sold on it, but public opinion appears to be against me (also this isn't a bad photo, it just doesn't really look like me for some reason):
