Dont Fix Your Hair

"Take a shower. Wash my hair. Get rid of unwanted tangles. Scrub my fur. Get out damn flea. Clean in my ears. Get all the wax out. Dry my fur and hair. Keep it flat and semi-wet. Keep it combed. Find a good shirt. Nothing too fancy. Nothing too heavy. Something just right. Make my hair look perfect. It expresses who I am. Time for a picture. Where's my camera. Look in the mirror. Make yourself look innocent. Look cute. Try not to smile. Can't smile. Focus the camera. Stupid pixels. I'm very camera shy. God, do I look ugly... *click* ... Time to put it on the web."

Did this after I uploaded my first IRL image online. I joined Pounced.org a few weeks ago. Its my first time on a "relationship search" site and the first time putting my face on the web. In all truth, I hate cameras...well…getting my picture taken in general. It’s the shy part of me.

Found it funny uploading this today due to the large submissions of people posting Real Photo Memes on FA. Thought it was a good time to post this picture since it is about self-photography. No relation thought.
