In which I am weird

smile time

For Lex, who wanted photo proof that I can hold my own shoulder blades



It's just something I was casually doing one day and it freaked Ian out. I didn't realize it might be weird.

I was playing around and half-assed straightened my hair. As you can see, it did not get really straight.



The slight swoosh at the front was intentional.



See, not so straight.


Parenting.

Here was my outfit last Friday:










I want to be her.


Or them.

Thank you! The actual pictures are not all that great, but I had a few photographers I know take some shots, so eventually I'll be able to put up good ones.

Thank you, it was all pretty last minute, but I am pleased with how it turned out. The actual event was less fabulous, but whatever.

I too can grab my shoulder blades, therefore it is not weird and Mr Ian can just get over it.

That outfit in the 'I want to be her' comment reminds me of Professor Badass. (google image search, first pic)

You would look awsm in a Professor Badass suit.

Professor Badass is BADASS! If I could pass as a black man, I would become Professor Badass.

... in which you are AWESOME. And pretty flexible. <3

And you know, you totally do need some dreads. :)

ALSO. I am able to wrap my arm around behind my head, then keep reaching around underneath my chin and touch my earlobe. Try it :)

Huh, I never would of thought about doing that. I can't grab my blades like you, I have to cross my arms to grab both. Otherwise, I can only do one at a time. Also, your face looks very pretty in that first pic of your straightened hair and that was a real good looking dress on you.

I don't know why or when I first grabbed my own blades...

Dude, your shoulder blades jut out. I can cover my shoulder blades with my hands from behind (with arms crossed too), but I can't make them jut out like that.

Huh. I didn't think holding my own shoulderblades was that weird, either. Shows what I know.

Then again, I can scrub my own back, too.

I love the "this way to my left eye" pill box hat.

Nobody poses with the Napoleon hand-in-shirt pose anymore, and that's sad.

I love the idea of World's Fair era parents cosplaying as spacemen to the chagrin of their child. It's like if Andy Taylor and Barney Fife dressed up as Gambit and Wolverine and took Opie to Dragon*Con.

I'd like to imagine that the action that follows that first photo is you removing your shoulder blades, throwing them at a bank robber like should-arangs, knocking him out to be dealt with by the authorities, and then two new shoulder blades slotting into place with a ch-chunk.

Lucas, I'll ask you not to share my private crime fighting hubub around. People will start thinking I'm not chaotic evil.


That kid probably grew up boring and conservative!

Ow ow ow ow. Dang that looks freaky. Actually, it looks rather sexy in a strange way. Damn now I have a kink in my shoulder. Warning: Do not try this without the supervision of someone who can message your neck and shoulders after trying.

Nice pics of you. You have beautiful eyes.

That kid in the family pic looks worried. I suppose he should be.

[info]hmrpotter Your icon says a lot about most of us. I love it. :>D

Yeah, probably not a good thing to try if you're not already sort of flexible.
And thanks, I grew them myself!

I love these pics. The hairstyle in the 2nd and 3rd pics looks great on you, and the outfitfrom last Friday is so stylish.
LOL @ Hypnotoad.

Thank you. The hair took longer than I'm willing to spend on everyday hairstyling. It's like Hermione's hair for the Yule Ball, it's a rare event.

I can do that with my shoulderblades, too. Very odd. It kind of looks like wings. Hand...wings...

Oh, man, your Julia/Clive icon...

That gif was in a forum I was reading earlier and it was horrifyingly mesmerizing.

I also wonder how many of us tried doing the shoulder blade thing as soon as we saw that picture...haha.

I think probably everyone. I was trying to see what other weird things I could do last night. It's hard to gauge, though, because who am I to say what's weird?

Thank you, yes I did. Or, I altered it from other things. The top was just a velvet jacket and the skirt was a shower curtain.

Oh, nevermind, I just saw in the comment above... THAT'S AWESOME! I was asking because I have a shower curtain skirt too! Mine is black, and I hold it together with buttons. I'm so irrationally excited to see someone else do it. ^__^

YOUR OUTFIT IS SO AMAZING. As usual.

Also the holding of the shoulder blades made me make a WTF for a moment, too.

Also the skinny bitches at work be crazy. You're not even "curvy-as-a-nice-way-of-saying-fat" you're juuuuuuust right.
