Finally, a picture of me that I don't despise.

[sistawendy]

I don't hate this picture of me, which hasn't happened in a long, long time. I think it's because of what hormones have done to my face, not to mention the hilarious pose that was apparently the photographer's idea.

What does this picture say? "Know beatific peace through tacos"? "I've got something you don't"? It's all so enigmatic.

Photo credit: Jessie Hirsch. Taken at the party last Friday. Thanks to xaotica for tagging this on, I hate to admit it, Facebook. I'd forgotten all about it.

Your face looks *so* much softer and more feminine now. You look fantastic!

[sistawendy.livejournal.com]

*Purr! Purr! Purr!*

[leenerella]

So cute, and you've got cheekbones to die for! Also: I want your dress. :)

[sistawendy.livejournal.com]

I love that dress! That was an epic score at the Shoreline Goodwill.

[bork.livejournal.com]

That - I love it! Great picture, and yes - you are looking more feminine!

We still need to have coffee, BTW. I feel bad about last time.

[sistawendy.livejournal.com]

Thanks! This weekend is pretty booked, but I'd love to meet you either next weekend or on a weeknight after 9:00.

[bork.livejournal.com]

Yeah, this weekend is completely slammed for me as well.

[sistawendy.livejournal.com]

Well, I may be going over to sirriamnis's tomorrow night, Noc Noc Friday night, and I've got things to do Saturday morning & early afternoon. Thursday night is out because that's serious time with m'boy. How's late Saturday afternoon or Sunday afternoon? Or could I talk you into joining me and possibly cupcake_goth et al. at the Night Kitchen on Friday night?

[bork.livejournal.com]

I could do Night Kitchen! I've never been there, and I think it'd be fabulous!

[sistawendy.livejournal.com]

I shall pass it on today. How's midnight, after dancing?

[bork.livejournal.com]

Gah - that's going to be way too late; I have to get up at 5;45 the next morning for class.

Maybe next week?

[sistawendy.livejournal.com]

OK. Do you always have to get up so early? My best time is weeknights after 9:00.

[bork.livejournal.com]

Unfortunately, yeah - but it's only for this one class.

And we don't have class on the Saturday of the 21st - so I have class this Saturday, and then on the 28th. And then I'm free! (In the meantime, OMG the homework.) So, I could do this next Friday?

Most weeknights I'm OK with after 9pm.

Most weekends, I'm completely free, with the exception of the two Saturdays I listed. And on those Saturdays, my class ends at 1pm, so I can be back in Seattle by 2 or so.

[sistawendy.livejournal.com]

How about next Friday night? Coffee with you first at 9:00, then I club while you sleep. Let me know where, too.

[bork.livejournal.com]

That sounds glorious! 9pm it is; is the Night Kitchen open that early? (What a strange sentence to write in terms of Seattle!)

[sistawendy.livejournal.com]

The web site says 6 PM to 9 AM. We're go!

[bork.livejournal.com]

Yes. YES. I'll put it in my calendar.

BTW, I may be sending you an email regarding coding, if you don't mind.

[sistawendy.livejournal.com]

Coding R us.

[bork.livejournal.com]

I want to take my compiler and SMASH IT TO BITS.

See my avatar? His disgusted face and pointing? I was doing that to the computer all day.

[sistawendy.livejournal.com]

Arg! My mother-in-law has hijacked my weekend! Try again later?

[bork.livejournal.com]

I can live with that! Good luck with the mother in law!

[tmfkan64.livejournal.com]

Woo phoot!

[maribou]

I think it says, "I am charming and have a well-honed sense of fun."

But I could be reading into it;).

[loree.livejournal.com]

This is the first photo I've seen of you en femme with non-prosthetic bustline -- and I see BOOBIES! :D

[sistawendy.livejournal.com]

Yes! Yaaaay! Boobies at last! And they're still growing!

[staxxy.livejournal.com]

I really like how much the hormones have softened your jawline!!

and the enigmatic look makes me think "Maura Lisa de Taco" ;)

[sistawendy.livejournal.com]

"Maura Lisa de Taco"

Hee! By the way, you took pictures of me that I still love, but you had to retouch the heck out of many of them, as I recall.

[staxxy.livejournal.com]

I did, indeed. And there was a GREAT DEAL of getting the face angles *just right* to minimize the strength of your jawline. It is nice to see that is becoming less of an issue for you. I know how much you despised it.

[cupcake-goth.livejournal.com]

This is a lovely photo of you.

[sistawendy.livejournal.com]

Thanks. High praise indeed, considering the source.

[entelein.livejournal.com]

Yayyyyy!

[maellenkleth]

Very nice picture indeed, Maura. You clean up well!

[sistawendy.livejournal.com]

The light string in the background serves as a sort of halo, I've noticed.

[la-roja.livejournal.com]

Your breasts are coming in so nicely! Good breast genes are a lucky thing to have, you must be so pleased. :)

[sistawendy.livejournal.com]

Pleased is an understatement. :D

I can't help but wonder when I'm going to see you & your beau again. It's been a while.

[xaotica.livejournal.com]

i only like to kiss ladies who take quality photos ;P

[sistawendy.livejournal.com]

Woohoo! I hope you're not talking about Jessie.
