Theme Thursday: Self Portrait

Let's see....

I am:
Opinionated
Sensitive
Kind
Cranky
Funny
Sarcastic
Verbal
Prone to melancholy....

What?  Oh, you meant a PHOTO self-portrait.

Okay.

Here it is....


I am:  
Hispanic
Near/far and middle-sighted
My face is oddly asymmetrical
I have the Gonzales ears (oh, dear)
I have more chins than the Hong Kong phone directory
I have a nice mouth
I have earned every gray hair on my head (as Erma Bombeck said: Gray hair is inherited -   you get it from your children).

I hate having my picture taken, even by myself.          

I am also linking up with Cari at Clan Donaldson for Theme Thursday.  Go over there and see the other self portraits.  Go on, now...

Quit looking at me!

    I love the word AND picture portrait. You're right, you do have a nice mouth. And very kindly eyes.

    My children have given me a lot of gray hair. But I love my kids anyway. :-)
