mystery solved




Question for t2: is this where the Puerto Rican thing came from? The photo on the top is me and the one on the bottom is NOT (obviously). I thought that was clear from my respective posts but maybe not so much. (Photo #1 was a play on photo #2...)

For those of you unfamiliar with what's going on here, when I met trinity2 face to face, she had said she was thrown when she saw me. Thrown, not necessarily because of my "look" but more so because she was under the impression that I was Puerto Rican. I ain't no freakin Rican.

Just wanted to clear that up in case anyone else is thinking the same thing.

What? Puerto Rican? I thought you had talked about having some version of red hair. OR maybe you didn't say that on your blog but in a comment on someone else's blog. Not that it would be bad if you were Puerto Rican, I haven't met one yet who wasn't totally hot.

I know zoe, I know. I don't know what to tell you, except that it was pretty funny.

I'll keep that picture in mind when I am in town for the Cubbies game in August-maybe can hook it up for some arroz con pollo. Lemme know :-P

Blogville is funny. You kind of carry pictures in your head of what you think someone looks like. I always pictured you as sort of a young Shirley Maclaine. That red haired, generous mouthed young thing.

A recent blogger told me once that she thought of me as a Gloria Estefan. Probably because of the name Maria. Not in my wildest dreams.

Hey, both pictures do sort of look puerto rican! -even the top one! Your skin looks olive and it's hard to see what color your hair is. (If I missed the reference to red hair in earlier posts - my bad!)
But, hey - whether you rican or not - it's all good! :-) - it was a GOOD shock.

Hey shea, when in August? I'll be out of town for a lot of it but...

maria,
Shirley Maclaine? I'm unfamiliar with what she used to look like but whatever! I actually have zero vision of you but I'm not sure why. I guess I just have nothing to go on. I try not to envision because I'm usually wrong.

I know t2, just joking. I'm glad we cleared it up though and I didn't mind being thought of as a Puerto Rican... even if it was for only a second. It's cool.

Hey afunt, how's it going? I'm glad you like the photo-thanks. The thing on my wrist is my "wrist cuff". It's kind of old.
