Truthiness in Blogginess
I like to think of this little exercise, brainchild of ma betch, as a lowering of expectations. You see, by posting a totally decaffeinated, au-naturel, first-thing-in-the-morning pic I will be so much more impressive if and when you see me in person with degreasified hair, unblotchier skin, and a lot less eyebagginess that you will be awed and slackjawed at the sight before you. Or something.
So if you want to see the real me…clickety click right heeyah* If you want to see the less real me, look through my Flickr.

You’re gorgeous as usual, Iz. ;-)
Hell if that is the worst you look all day then you should be pretty happy. I’m sure your hubby will agree that you look great right out of the covers. :)
I think I am a bit more frightening first thing. Coffee does put a smile on my face too :)
What kind of camera is that? One of the smaller Nikons (D40?) with an SB-800? flash? Sweet.
Oh, honey, you’re adorable. And also? You have the hair I’m trying to achieve. Once it grows out. In, like, three thousand years of not cutting it.
You look even hotter than I remember.
I did this over on my blog too. Sadly, I don’t look half as good as you do.
Beyotch.

You give me hope. If I look like that first thing in the morning a few years from now when I’ve started having kidlets, I will consider myself a very lucky woman. You’re hot! :)
Your hair looks longer than I remember.
Not as brave as the photo I posted before I went in the hospital; you look fetching and spunky!
Psssh. Go on with your gorgy self!
I am loving the results of this. So interesting.
Are you kidding me?? Your even gorgeous in the morning. If I get the nerve I’ll share what true first of the morning hideousness really is. I’ll let you know.
Hey! We have the same hair! Well when I straighten the mad mess of curls that I despise…. but you look much MUCH happier than me first thing in the morning without a liter of coffee.

Well sure, it’s easy to get truthy when you look so fab. Not even lying. I’m jealous.
I’d do you. ;)
I did this today, too.
Your hair was what I was hoping for when I went darker, but sadly, with my cowlicks, I ended up channeling Steve Perry, instead.
Sigh…

Damn. You look great first thing in the morning. I hate you. OK, I don’t hate you. I actually luv ya. But I do envy your hair.
I should say something but I am afraid my wife will eventually find out my comment and she’ll kill me.

Why, Miss Izzy…you’re beautiful…
Geez Louise girl, if that’s what you look like au naturel, I do not want to see you when you are all done up.

You don’t look a day over 18 and I love your hair longer!
slackermommy’s last blog post..Aggregation aggravation
Good Lord, woman. You look great right out of the gate. Damn.
Plus I’m loving the longer hair on you. Fab.
I did this on my 30th birthday (October 17) with the intention of posting it and chickened out…that and the fact that I had to take it arm’s length because no one was around to take it for me.
You’ve given me the courage…it will go up for Wordless Wednesday and I’ll report back.

You’re so hot you make me want to hate you. But then I can’t because I also want to be you. Quit making me confused.
Yowzaa your hair got so long!! you are so purty Iz, I’ve always thought that. I did it today too. Not sure how I feel about my greasy mug up there, but it’s done.
