Nate, 

I have people email me from high school all of the time and, even with photos, I can't remember who they might be.  It takes a lot of work for me to recall these nice people I used to hang out with a lot.  It's weird. 

So, for me, I guess my memory is shot and I suck at reconnecting with people I once knew.

I'm like that, too.  At times, I can be a total airhead, but I've got a knack for remembering people, details, things I've read, you name it.  I really think that's why I was able to make good grades in school--and I play a mean game of Jeopardy.

That's so cool!  I <3 crossword puzzles, too!  I'm weird...I *must* use a mechanical pencil and fill in all the squares in all CAPS when crosswording.

In keeping with the thread, I need to dig up some old pics...I've got some ugly Michelin baby pics of me somewhere.

I use a mac.  I upload all of my photos to flickr then select the size that I want from there and copy and paste the link they give me for the individual photo in the size I want.

 

They have an uploader for mac that makes it really easy to get your photos on their site.  Also, you can have a free account with up to 200 photos in it - which is fine if you're just using the pictures to share on here or something.  I recently upgraded to a paid account though because I had more photos.  It was only $25 for a year of unlimited annual storage.

 

Long explanation to say:  I use Flickr and am not sure how to do it any other way.

I'd had the yearbook one scanned not too long ago, and just caved and hosted it on Flickr. I have an imageshack and photobucket account, but i would have rather just used that little "choose file" button down below, unfortunately I could not get it to work.

I was watching this show on msnbc about homeless teenagers in Portland Or, and you look alot like this one pregnant girl that was on the show.  Maybe it's just the nose thing, 'cause it seemed like all the homeless kids had them.

I also cut off the sides and put it up in a massive mohawk, but I don't think I have any pictures.  Either way, I think back on it and sort of hate it.

You guys are way too kind. I must say it is a shame the boys in London don't seem to share your thoughts, I'm sure I would be having a lot more fun if they did! Oh apart from the guy in his 60s that was trying to work his charm on me earlier at work today.

 

Alissa you have to find your old goth photos too!! Smile Big

 

Poor Damien got totally overlooked back there. I am loving the cowboy outfit...you should do a modern day recreation!

anyway, i did wear some kind of a western cowboy plaid shirt for new year's 2008 but i probably won't post it because it might be incriminating and you know, internets and incriminating photos don't mix well. i probably can't send it to you either cause that'd be weird, unless you're into that.

I'm not trying to flatter you when I say this, but it's just not possible that the boys in London don't think you're hot.  You'd have to go around in an astronaut suit with a blackout face plate to even stand a chance of dimming your gorgeousness.

So either you're too busy being Alex to notice them digging your chili, or you don't know any straight guys.  Probably the former, because it seems like gay guys (kind of like straight women) can appreciate gorgeous girls in an asexual sort of way...
