IRL, I'm very average imo. The thing that stands out the most is my hair. It's been almost pure white since I was about 40. I have unusually green eyes. I've been told I have the 'it' factor. Usually it's men that are hitting on me who say that. My sister and DH have also said that. I'm not sure what that really means.
The closest i've gotten to being Meryl is winning a lot of awards and trophies for acting when I was younger. As far as the golden retriever......I have a yorkie shitzu mix baby that is a golden color. All the rest is imagination.
I'm a bit shy, and love paint, canvas, and art supplies. I'm obsessed with plants for some reason. My paintings are a bit abstract, but not always. I occasionally write poetry, and am a 5 star baker. People beg me to do flowers for their wedding. I guess you can say i'm an introverted artsy type. I live in a place where i'm surrounded by natures finest. I adore my adult children. They make me laugh, and taught me what real love is.
I was at a point where I was ready to say I am what I am because of what I am and if you like me I'm grateful, and if you don't, what am I going to do about it? Anne Bancroft
I always pictured Anagrammy as Eva Marie Saint, but now I will switch to Ann Bancroft if I can. My mind is not very elastic anymore so it will be an effort.
I picture fidget as the red headed vampire on True Blood called Jessica. :-)
And annagrammy I picture you sort of as Mrs. Pots in Beauty and the Beast :-P guess I was cartoon deprived too, twojedis.
Mia I wasn't expecting you to say you were light haired. I sort of pictured you as brunette.
I think I look a lot like news anchor Erin Burnett only with hazel eyes and my hair is a lot longer and a couple shades lighter with a red tint. But especially the way she talks and smiles, sometimes I wonder if we were separated at birth...
RJ actually looked almost exactly how I pictured him before we became FB friends...Must be a a stereotypical image I have of dudes into Metal, lol.... Ana and Mia make me think of a few older feminist women I've known, especially my HS English teacher. They all wear glasses and have beautiful silver hair.
As for me, I look like a relative of Barbara Streisand, Bette Midler, and Marisa Tomei. As far as I know, I am neither Jewish nor Italian. :)
I told a coworker this morning that someone on RFM pictured me as Tim Gunn and he said, "That's funny because my friend Scott always says that." I would have never thought that.
So, Ambivalentexmo, you may not be that far off, though I have a lot of sandy grey hair that falls all over the place.
I've also had that image in my head when it comes to you. I do think that you have a softer edge than tim though.
As for me and Miranda, hmmm. I think that the resemblance ends with the hair color. I wish I was that tall, slender, and well put together. I can't imagine her getting dirty from working outside, or getting paint in her hair.
I think MJ is more like her personality with the face of Jack Nicholson.
Interesting. I'm thinking I should take up letter writing and stop talking to some people. lol
One thing about the internet, you can let, or lead people to have perceptions that may be far more flattering than real life. Or, are we just showing who we really are on the inside?
I think most people have powerful internal personas that we often miss because we can't get past the external packaging. The internet is great in that respect.
Apparently Meryl Streep got the exterior packaging I should have had. Who knew?
"One thing about the internet, you can let, or lead people to have perceptions that may be far more flattering than real life. Or, are we just showing who we really are on the inside?"
Excellent question. I show more of myself here than I do anywhere in my life. I am really guarded. Really.
p.s. My new favorite rose is called 'hot cocoa'.

Forbiddencokedrinker don't hate me for saying this but I always pictured you to be like Kevin James. But ask anyone I know he's my biggest crush (especially in his king of queens days)
