The pic was taken in Amsterdam, actually. So yeah, I was, um, doing a lot of laughing.

I know! It happened last fall I think, where gr got a little more fbook-y. And that's a great picture, like you were just laughing at something.

Yay! I really love that I will forever be associated with Semengate, and Karen, of course.

Thanks for the friending...it was really a flash following you and Karen during Semengate!

bwahahahaha!!

I feel like semen has really brought us all together on this day.

Thanks Kevin & Natalie! It's been up for awhile, how funny that you both noticed it within like an hour of each other.

your current default pic is awesome!!!

I like your "book-loving" picture, though it is slightly disturbing. Hahaha.

do you have any other websites that i can befriend you on? i was just sorting through my goodreads friends list and was like, oh HER! (that being you), i quite like HER! (you again). you're rather funny and interesting and you gave me a compliment once i think - obviously beneficial to my devastatingly low self esteem and i'm pretty bored on the internet since i got it back. i moved interstate, see. anyway, message me with any deets on where i can stalk you at. i'll take my caffeine-fuelled rambling elsewhere now.

Thanks! I wish I'd had something to do with it, but no. I really ought to figure out how to Photoshop my face on, but my design skills are woefully inadequate.

It's lovely in any case. I guess I was mostly wondering if that was you in the picture or if you had anything to do with its creation.

You know, MFSO, I already forgot where it came from! But I think it might have been from the blog Boldtype? (It's possible that I forgot accidentally on purpose, because I don't want anyone to steal it...)

Where does that excellent avatar image of yours come from anyway?
