The Real Me
Ok, so I posted a good photo of myself last time. Wouldn’t you?
But it was the only thing the women at work talked about. “Hey, you look really good in that picture.” “Wow, you look great” “I can’t believe how good you look!”
What they really mean is… “That doesn’t look like her at all.” “Can you believe she posted THAT photo.” “I hardly recognized her.”
OK, I get it. It’s not my normal look. So today I took some new photos. Now when you look at this photo, keep in mind that I have no make-up on, haven’t showered in two days and, oh yeah, I had surgery yesterday. Just in case the flaws are not obvious enough, I have labeled them. (I hope you all think this one is more appropriate for my blog.)
Since we are being honest… here is what you can’t see: there is a stain on my shirt, my teeth need work and I should be on a diet. AND this was the very best photo I took today. I will not post the really bad ones. Would you?
I admire your courage for posting the picture you did and highlighting the flaws. Wishing you a speedy recovery from your surgery.
Ah yes…who needs enemies when you have friends like this. Are you sure you covered everything?
Oh hell, we all have flaws. I seriously would not have noticed any of them if you hadn’t pointed them out. Hope you’re recovering from surgery well. Take care.
I very like your photo. From your photo and your words, I guess you must be a humous and happy girl. I think you will look much better if there is a smile.
