Description It's been a very trying couple of weeks to say the least...

My computer still isn't funnly functional. I still can't get my internet connection to fire up on that computer so I'm forced on to dialup on a 5 year old gateway that's slower than molasses in December Not to mention the million other things that are going on in my house and have been since sometime in January...

Ahhh....

But yeah, this prettymuch sums it up.

This is the face that overcame The Perpetual Smirk...

I understand what it's like to be overworked and frustrated with things. I hope they improve, hon!
As for the image, I love that hair. And the expression is great!

Good! You need to take some time for yourself and just relax and do your own work! I know sometimes that's hard to do, but it'll help you feel better.

The expressions on this is amazing. I hope that smirk returns soon and things get better. Your one of the reasons I keep coming back to DA

Thank you, sweetie

I had this as my desktop for a week and was sitting here one day in that position....Shad tried to take multiple photos of me like that for emphasis, but was rather annoyed when every time he tried I'd look up to see what he was doing.

He said it was probably the closest thing I could ever do for a self portrait

Things should be prettymuch back to normal now though, and the smirk will be back soon enough, LOL!

I hope things start going better for you V.

I agree with everyone else on this though....the emotions are captured perfectly.....and there are so many swimming around in her head, I can tell.

Would you like something for your headache? j/k

LOL, I think I've been living on coffee and advil for about two weeks
I think we're finally coming off the slump though, and things should be back to normal soon enough....comp's back up, van's back on the road, and room mate moved out (finally)...so we're trying to get organized again and back to our routines

Just good to be back
