Last time I went to get my photo taken I really took the time to put the make-up on and fix the hair and wear a really pretty blue funnel-neck top and jewelry!! (I usually don't try, because the pictures are so bad I figure it's not worth it.) I get there and check the mirror and think I look pretty good. They call me and I sit down in front of a curtain the SAME COLOR AS MY TOP! Needless to say we now call my picture "The Floating Head". I am just not going to try any more. I really look forward to reading your posts! I always get a good laugh!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7092603952139807812.post-35463210905526257532008-10-02T08:24:00.000-04:002008-10-02T08:24:00.000-04:00Good Morning Ron dear. I am drinking my first cup ...Good Morning Ron dear. I am drinking my first cup of coffee and came here to start my day with a laugh. Needless to say, you did not disappointment me!!<BR/> <BR/>I never like having my photo taken, but I REALLY dislike ID photos. You only get one chance, and you're sitting there with a crowd of strangers watching you trying to smile naturally! An unfriendly crowd too...because they just want you to get done and get your ass out of the chair so they can move up in line. <BR/><BR/>When I had my drivers license photo taken a few years ago I had dark brown hair (with a little help from the bottle). :) As I told you before, I stopped dying it, and I have silver streaks now, but only in the front. So they look at my license and then they look at me..and I find myself explaining. "It really is me, I just stopped dying my hair."<BR/>Which of course, everyone in the line hears me say. I can't tell you how many times this leads to conversations about dying hair..not only with the cashier, but people in the line. I've actually had people walk out with me discussing hair..to dye or not to dye. hee, hee<BR/><BR/>Thank you for another great Vent!<BR/><BR/>Love Ya!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7092603952139807812.post-33117876793887759772008-10-02T08:09:00.000-04:002008-10-02T08:09:00.000-04:00HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!!SMOOCHIES AND HUGS AND HUGS AND...HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!!<BR/><BR/>SMOOCHIES AND HUGS AND HUGS AND SMOOCHIES!!!!!<BR/><BR/><BR/>Much love to you my darling friend.<BR/><BR/>Today should be a national holiday!<BR/><BR/>Have a wonderful day off and remember Frankie says.....<BR/><BR/>RELAX!Anndihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08703154815958841195noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7092603952139807812.post-62224389699188443112008-10-01T21:38:00.000-04:002008-10-01T21:38:00.000-04:00Hi Alex!Great seeing ya again!I lived in New York ...Hi <B>Alex</B>!<BR/><BR/>Great seeing ya again!<BR/><BR/>I lived in New York City for almost five years, and I know what you mean about the lines.<BR/><BR/>Long lines for everything!<BR/><BR/>But so much of that has to do with the percentage of population, ya know?
