    Hey! Nicely done. You are talented.
    (Next time wear a bra - the girls are sagging.)

    Now I know who to look for on Saturday night!

  3. K8 UNITED KINGDOMon 25 Feb 2008 at 7:14 pm

    Sixty!! Cheeky fecker :) *slap*

    Grannymar; I’ll be the geek with the glasses beside the bigger, hairier geek with glasses.

  4. Grannymar UNITED KINGDOMon 25 Feb 2008 at 7:50 pm

    I’ll be the geek with the glasses hanging on my zimmer!

  5. J Adamthwaite UNITED KINGDOMon 25 Feb 2008 at 8:15 pm

    And there was me thinking you looked like that strange little creature you have on your profile picture!

  6. K8 IRELANDon 25 Feb 2008 at 8:31 pm

    The bushbaby? Nah, I only look like that after midnight on a full moon.

  7. Ben IRELANDon 25 Feb 2008 at 9:35 pm

    Very impressive drawing! I can’t even draw myself in stick man format!
    Knowing you were drawing yourself , ya think you would’ve put on some decent clobber lol ;)

  8. Thriftcriminal IRELANDon 25 Feb 2008 at 10:30 pm

    Fair play. Could not do that to save my life.

  9. Baino AUSTRALIAon 25 Feb 2008 at 10:36 pm

    Aww give her a break, she’s wearing jewellery! How dressed up can you get? Long live the jeans and T shirt . . should be compulsary uniform for all!

  10. J Adamthwaite UNITED KINGDOMon 25 Feb 2008 at 11:32 pm

    A bushbaby! That’s what it is! I’ve been trying to figure it out for ages… I thought it might be bat related.

  11. Kateon 26 Feb 2008 at 12:44 am

    My self-portrait would be far more stick-figure/impressionist/surrealist. No latent drawing skillz here.

  12. manuel UNITED KINGDOMon 26 Feb 2008 at 12:59 am

    talent…..and then some….

  13. Roy (irish taxi) IRELANDon 26 Feb 2008 at 2:12 am

    you’re lovely!

  14. Conortje NETHERLANDSon 26 Feb 2008 at 12:04 pm

    Wow, you are so talented. I hate you.

  15. Queen of Clean IRELANDon 26 Feb 2008 at 3:10 pm

    Lovely… no, really I mean it, I wish I could draw as well as you.

  16. GoingLikeSixty UNITED STATESon 26 Feb 2008 at 5:30 pm

    Conortje: that’s what I meant to say except I am passive aggressive.

  17. K8 UNITED KINGDOMon 26 Feb 2008 at 5:58 pm

    Ben; That tshirt has ‘HOOTERS 1986′ written on the front, but I left that out so youz wouldn’t get the wrong idea about yours truly. Should’ve left it in now I reckon, except it would’ve said 6891 SRETOOH which would have been confusing…
    Anyway… shut yer piehole summarizes. :)

    Thriftcriminal; I can’t catch a bunch of keys to save MY life.

    Thanks Baino! Rock… on.

    Kate; I quite like surrealism… anyway you sure as hell can knit!

    Manuel; Why spank you!

    Roy; Why spank you too!

    Conortje; Awww, thanks, I hate you too!! xxx

    Queen of Clean; Thanks, you draw quite excellent pictures yourself! I was right there with you laughing at that golfing bint in the water and her valiant rescuers :) Classic story.

    Sixty; Who let you back in?!?! *slap*

  18. Queen of Clean IRELANDon 26 Feb 2008 at 6:44 pm

    Thanks K8, funny really that was just a footnote to the day, still it cheered me up after Mrs ‘you owe me’ knickers.

  19. Medbhon 27 Feb 2008 at 4:59 am

    I’ll be looking for you on Saturday to say hello and have a drink then, K8.
    Cheers!

  20. Camronon 27 Feb 2008 at 5:39 am

    Gorgeous. So very pretty.

    Wait - does tha mean I’m a lesbian? Sheesh - y’all should just leave me alone…

  21. Natalie IRELANDon 27 Feb 2008 at 11:01 am

    And you want to drive a taxi????? I can see another not so blue collar job lined up for you! Come on K8!!!

  22. K8 UNITED KINGDOMon 27 Feb 2008 at 4:01 pm

    Medbh; Cool beans… safe travelling duckie! Will you be bringing the lobster with you?

    Camron; Sure all us girlies have at least 15% lesbianism in us, even if we don’t admit it.

    Natalie; *sigh* Alas, pointless screeving does not a bill paying job make…

  23. Granny IRELANDon 28 Feb 2008 at 1:19 am

    k8, you got the hands right and that is not easy! We could never get that one right at art class except for one girl and she ran off with the art teacher. He was dishy!! We got no more art classes at our school for some reason :(

  24. Jefferson Davis UNITED STATESon 28 Feb 2008 at 5:11 am

    I love it!!! Fantabulous self portrait, K8. :) I can’t sit still long enough to draw myself.

  25. K8 UNITED KINGDOMon 28 Feb 2008 at 8:40 pm

    I got to paint a live willy once. It wasn’t as exciting as you might think.

    Jeffo! You don’t need a live subject… you already have a gallery of stuff in the vast room that is your imagination, I don’t know how you do it!

  26. GoingLikeSixty UNITED STATESon 28 Feb 2008 at 11:38 pm

    @k8 You said you wouldn’t tell.

  27. Jefferson Davis UNITED STATESon 01 Mar 2008 at 8:10 pm

    I think we all had imaginary friends growing up. But, I had imaginary siblings, parents, pets, aliens, toys, and the like! :) That, and I read a lot! I usually go for the sci-fi or romance novels. I say the heck with that “reality” stuff. :)
