This Is How You'll Recognize Me

[raebates]

It occurred to me that many of you who will be at NC don't know what I look like. And, just in case you were wondering, I won't be wearing my Post Slut* Slippers. So, in order to make it easier for you to find me at NC, here's what I look like. I'm only 5' 1" tall. You'll probably hear me before you see me. I have a loud laugh, which I use often.

I don't photograph well (The Furry Guy says I don't translate well to two dimensions; it takes all three to really appreciate me), but this is basically what I look like.

So, now it's your turn. If you look like your profile, let us know. If you don't, upload a photo so we'll be able to recognize one another.

See you soon!



*Post Slut is a term we used to hear here a lot. It was someone who posted short, often unnecessary posts in order to reach the next level to get a new, different star. It was a term of affection. At one point a sweet person named Ann created a Post Slut t-shirt on Cafe Press. I made matching pajama pants. That same sweet person made those Post Slut Slippers for me.

My profile picture is generally how I will look, could have my hair down and curly, maybe even straightened, and I might appear to be lost? We shall see.

I'll be on the lookout for you, Jasmine.

And, now my nails are ready. If you aren't convinced by the flippy red hair, loud laugh, and short stature, check out the nails.

Those are fantastic!! I wish I were going to NC for so many reasons and meeting you in person after reading your daily NC tips is definitely one of them. I love all your ideas and will definitely implement them when I am able to go to a future NC so thank you very much for taking the time to write them all down.

I just couldn't not comment on your fabulous nails!
