In Which I Get Caught Making Some Pretty Silly Faces
Because I love y’all, I’m going to show you what a dork I can be.

My father-in-law shot some candid photos while he was in town. As usual, he caught me at my best. Typically he catches me with a fork midway to my piehole. This time, though, he caught me channelling a variety of celebrities.
In this one, I’m getting in touch with my inner Marlo Thomas. This is the face of a woman whose son just graduated from high school. That, my friends, is the look of relief.

Here I am, reliving my days as front man for Black Sabbath.
C’mon, everyone has an inner Ozzy.
This has been my photo pose with the boy, lately. There’s another one like this from his last marching band concert. I don’t know what gets into me.
Maybe this is more of a Gene Simmons move. I don’t know. I grew up on Madonna and Cyndi Lauper. The heavy metal stuff didn’t kick in until I was WAY too old.

All I gotta say is Cher’s got nothing on me. Just picture a giant, ridiculous Bob Mackie headress with feathers and beads on my head and you’ll see it.
So of course, my father-in-law didn’t send a single good picture of me.
And now you know why, in most cases, I use an avatar instead of a photo. I just can’t seem to play it straight.
Which one’s your favorite?

While all are adorable, I like the first one best.

oh goodness, you think my Ozzy is adorable? Not to mention the several chins in my Cher? I have to admit, I kind of like the That Girl shot. It’s just so goof.

We’re not friends anymore.

The second one is brilliant!

I immediately thought Gene Simmons sans makeup, so I’m going with #2 because you look like you are going to rock and roll all night!

I’d sooner name my favorite child.
You look cute as a bug’s ear in all three snaps.

Definitely Marlo Thomas.

You have to love the That Girl reference. Looks like Donald just asked you out for a night on the town…

That Girl, totally!

Cher, by a land slide.

Cher. I totally see it! All of them are a hoot though! Congrats to your son on graduating HS. My BFF’s eldest graduated this year as well.
