Oh no! I love this one.

I love pinups and I love pumpkins. "Pumpkin Lady" is more of a coincidence though, because that's just me. I have a hard time not changing it weekly, I have so many pictures I like. I know people associate the reviews with the avatar so I try not to.

It's my own drawing. Been drawing that kitty everywhere for almost 10 years.

I don't know the artist or model, but about eight years ago one of my friends found it online and said 'She looks just like you!' I did look like this at the time - my hair was one length and down to my waist, although I wore glasses. Gah, to be twenty-five again! (But not married to 'Mr. No Libido'.)

This is Dip, my only son. He loves the bathroom, esp the sink. When he was a kitten, he couldn't stand to be alone. I used to let him come into the bathroom with me so he could play in the sink (I'm not kidding).

I snapped this pic with an old camera phone when he was small enough to jump in and out of the pants around my ankles.

My picture, I took it a while ago. It's me holding a leash.

Mine is always a photo of me, because I don't mind showing my face - and because I go to a lot of events and meetings, so it's easier for people to recognize me

A number of these have changed since the initial post.

I picked mine because, well... its a 'pussy' cat, I love animals (no, not that kind of love!), and I consider my personality a little cat-like!

I have a little toy metal robot. I got it as a gift. As it turns out, I like robots...so I guess that's all it says about me!

My lips, a marshmallow. Just thought it looked sexy and enticing.

I had a bunch of huge gorgeous Stargazer Lilies in my wedding bouquet. They are one of my favorite flowers too.

My fiance's aunt's wedding bouquet and all their flowers were Stargazer Lilies. I'm so sad that I can't get them for my January wedding, but I'm thinking about just getting fake ones and making my own bouquet as well as all the bouquets of my girls. I will get a half sleeve of stargazers tho, that'll be sweet

Mine is a picture of JEM I found on google images. My screen name is JEM after my favorite childhood cartoon and thought it only appropriate to have her pic as my avatar as well. I mean she is pretty awesome with the pink hair and all!!

Mine's a picture of me, done in a photo shoot by a friend of mine.

Mine is of course a picture of me. One of my bf's favorites. It used to change a lot. I go back and forth between animations of things I like or art and pics of me. I really like when I can put a face to a name and so I appreciate when I see faces here. I understand the concern though for not doing it. Trust me, I know the crazies out there. I will probably change it soon though

Mine's of a 60s Playmate named Fran Gerard. My boyfriend and other people have said I look like her. I like retro nudie girls

I actually wanted to ask you if that was you, because your avi is gorgeous.

I LOVE her. She's just so pretty. I think that kind of prettiness is rare these days.

I think it might actually be her glasses that does it for me.

I'm trying to find retro glasses like that to wear. I need new glasses. My cat has cracked mine and bitten holes in them. I'm officially a cat lady.

Mine is a bit strange. My namesake is a Femme Fatale from pre-comics code comic in the 1940s. The artist/writer was the famous (to all you nerds out there) Will Eisner, the Comic was The Spirit and the Woman was his all time "don't know whether to bust her or fuck her" nemesis/lover P'Gell.

I was gifted the nickname in adolescence, due to my "manner" and I ended up not only idolizing her, but looking a lot like her. This painting was done only a few years ago, in the Eisner fashion, by an other artist. His rendition looks so much like me, I HAD to use it as an icon.

If you are at all interested you can Google The Spirit or P'Gell or Will Eisner for more info. It's a fun, pre-censored comic and I love it.

Some eye doctors will let you bring in any pair of glasses (suitable for being eyeglasses) and swap the lenses for your actual prescription. It sometimes costs more, but I'd be willing to pay for it. Have you checked eBay?
