So Idioglossia has been suggesting that we should do more head-shots of me - specifically that we should do more pictures that involve my hands in conjunction with my face.
She's not sure what she wants to do in this vein, though.
This could involve very subtle makeup and nails, wherein the focus is all on facial expression and body language.
It could also involve playing with 1950s Glam imagery --> very red/wine lips, subtle(r) eyes, and sparkly jewellery (think "diamonds are a girl's best friend") - this could have either dark nails (burgundy) or subtle ones (pale pink shimmer).
It could also involve doing a glam/goth look with Uber Smoky eyes, nude-ish lips, dark/intense (black/blue/purple - probably indigo) nails and funky, chunky bracelets (read: super long necklaces wrapped around and around and around until they become like cuff bracelets) and rings, and/or interesting neck-wear (high-necked collars, choker necklaces, torques, etc).
It could involve doing a variety of things with my hair - many braids, or fancy up-dos or leaving it long and straight, or doing it in wild(ish) curls (unlikely, as this takes for freaking ever - I don't have a curling iron, or curlers, so it would involve ragging my hair. Which could, conceivably, be done. But when it's in, it's in... so tricky).
It could (extremely likely) involve stuff like using my hands/arms to frame my face.
It might or might not involve other props, like flowers, fans, masks, etc. But at least a little bit of that is likely.
In other news: I seem to be coming down with something. (At least I've been feeling vaguely sick, or extremely tired, in one way or another since about last Thursday).
Today I'm a bit woozy, although I suspect that's just being hungry. I don't know *why* I'm hungry, it's not like I haven't eaten a two-sandwich-sized Tupperware of quinoa-romano!bean-lentil-mushroom pilaf plus a banana, two muffins and a little container of red pepper slices today.
But I'm famished.
Hungry as hell.
And craving sugar and fat like nobody's business.
I'm seriously considering both (A) buying a smoothy to get me to, through and from Therapy, and (B) also buying a bunch of heavily discounted cheap valentines day chocolates. :-\
I definitely want to pick up some soy milk tonight (I've got about 1L left, and that'll probably go into a cream sauce tonight).
I mean, hell. If I'm picking up soy milk (from the H&S, 'cause I seriously doubt that the Loblaws on Isabella will have such a thing), I may as well splurge on tofutti sour cream and mix it into the sauce. Yeeg. (Granted, a soy yoghurt would have the same effect, but still. We'll see which one is cheaper).
But, yeah. Hungry. Wanting junk food. Also kind of wanting rye toast with butter, or white toast with peanut butter and butter. Which are, essentially, the same thing as junk food.
Fat!
Carbs!
<*is very, very hungry*>
It's about 2:30 right now.
I need to find the most recent copy of the Course Agenda (for the course I'm working on), proof-read it, and print out a copy. (And then make 45 copies and go over them with a high-lighter for everyone involved).
Whee! :-D
I'm done in one hour and fifteen minutes! :-)
