My apologies and plans for a MAJOR make-over

First of all, my sincere apologies to the nice people who have kindly posted comments about my blog. For some reason only Google knows, I can't seem to post or add any comments to my own blog. So, I'm taking the opportunity to thank you all here and apologise for not having replied to you.

After speculating about the 'bear' look in recent posts, I took a good, long hard look at how I wanted to live and love. Recent events in my life have also made me pause and reconsider how I want to see myself - I couldn't care less how others see me because I can't change their preconceptions and world views.

There have been people who've written nasty comments to me about this raspberry photo of mine. I love it because it reminds me that the camera doesn't always love me...and it's always good as a reality check.

While I don't photoshop my pictures until I've got rid of all my wrinkles and avoirdupois, I've been lucky enough to get a few good pictures of myself in the past after shooting twenty or thirty bad ones. But for some reason, they can't seem to accept the fact that I can make fun of myself (with a fish eye lens to get the extra puffy cheeks and double chins, no less) but that's their problem. Not mine. I could care less what nasty people think.

 

But I do intend to get a more 'Asian beary' look - even though I couldn't grow a single strand of chest hair to save my life. So I won't be posting any more photos of myself here until I am happy with how I look.
