a photo a day, day 22

For the photo a day meme: a photo of your town. My town. My town. This subject is fraught for me because I have struggled with the concept of “my” in regards to San Francisco. Although I have lived in the Bay Area for 11 years, I still feel fairly detached from it. As a result, I haven’t taken any astounding photographs of this place. That said, this photo captures a little part of my SF experience.

For the photo a day meme: a photo of you wearing something you wore when you were younger but wouldn’t wear now. Surgical scrubs and black lipstick. I have no idea either.

For the photo a day meme: a photo of you at a restaurant. Anyone who has ever gone to a restaurant with me knows I am usually taking pictures of what I am eating, not of myself. Good thing I usually dine with someone who likes to take pictures of me. This was taken during our honeymoon by FunkyPlaid at Café Nell, a Portland restaurant so fine I almost don’t want to tell you about it because if it gets too popular for me to ever eat there again then I will only have myself to...

For the photo a day meme: a photo of you at work. I don’t have any photos of me doing work at work. In fact, I have no idea what I look like while I am doing work at work. That is probably for the best. But here is a self-portrait that I snapped in my office the day I kept getting compliments on my pirate costume … that wasn’t a costume.

For the photo a day meme: a photo of you drunk. Ah, a chance for me to use the webcam archives! Here’s a saucy birthday wink from several years ago. Hello, younger, drunker me. This meme is more fun with company! I love Jen‘s, and can’t wait to see Adam‘s.

For the photo a day meme: a photo of you and someone you love. The wedding, as it happens, provided excellent fodder for this meme. Seth snapped this while FunkyPlaid and I danced to our song. I had imagined this moment so many times that it was hard to believe it was happening.

For the photo a day meme: a photo of one of your relatives. This one counts double, because it is a photo of my dad taken by my uncle! O, yes, and I am in there too because it is another wedding photo. Are you getting tired of these yet?

For the photo a day meme: a photo of your best friend(s). I wanted to wait until I had a photo of FunkyPlaid with my Attendants of Awesome from the wedding, but this will have to do. Courtney took this of my five Attendants of Awesome — Lara, Hawk, Ryan, Courtney, and Jason — plus me and my mom! We had just gotten our nails done for the wedding. We all had brunch at Samovar first, and then went to B Restaurant for cocktails before heading to Zaza Nail Spa. It was a perfect day. Not pictured: my stepmom and my mother-in-law, but they always deserve a...
