I'm so awfully tempted to tell you her age... But I guess I should let her do that.

But Finduilas ..you should never give away a lady's age ..even if it is your sister.... believe me you may reap the benefits in years to come especially if you are known to be the younger sister...

Gwathy, indeed.

I do wear glasses, and I do have brown hair. (It's only short 3 times a year, however.) I am about 6' 2", and I am neither fat, nor burly, nor thin. I either laugh or scowl. Usually the latter.

Eventually I'll get a picture on the photo page, but until then:

There. No more Lurch.

Had the prevailing impression been Gregory Peck, or Clint Eastwood, I wouldn't be nearly so hasty to correct it. Heck, I'd have settled for Bruce Willis, or a young Bruce Springsteen. Ah well.

Oh, Gwathagor! My image is shattered - destroyed! No longer will I think of you as my height, dear me, no. And no longer are you Gwathy. Ha. Anything but...especially when you're scowling, as you usually do.

*chuckles wryly to self*

No more Gwathy. Splendid.

I know it is a bad assumption, but ever since you revealed your Pogue-appreciation, I had a strong picture of you as of the male gender. I know, it is bad to assume that, but most people I meet who actually know who they are, well, are male.
Which is sad too, because Kristy MacColl was with them for awhile, and she was (and is) amazing! I would have figured more women would be aware of The Pogues just because of her for starters, but I guess it is mostly of where I live that no one has a clue who they are. *sigh*

I know the Pogues... but only by way of a male punk friend... so I don't know if that counts much.

The Ka: gratuitously long black hair, skin that ranges, depending on nothing in particular, in tone from albino to a burnished copper. Heavily lined eyes. Always very heavily lined eyes.

Well, for here, I have my age in my bio, so that wouldn't be any good. And looks wise, I have lately got to know some people, and they for a while thought I was 13 or 14. Oh well, I don't think I act that young...
