OH! That happened to me once! I changed my stuff at where I worked, and the place didn't do the changing. I was so mad, but you are right, nothing to be done. Maybe let the air out of somebodys tires or something, J/K, don't do that.

This is the one time of the year us breeders have it made. I don't know what I'll do when they all grow up and leave home though. :P

ADP, the payroll company. What's on your W-4 gets communicated to them if they're the contractor your company uses to process payroll.

I checked today. I was told that I have two exemptions. I asked if she read that on my actual W-4, and she said she did. I don't know whether to trust that, though. I did explain to her that I thought I fixed it last year, but that prompted no further curiosity on her part. I think she just looked at what it was in the computer. IT'S FIXED NOW. I was actually there as she processed the change.

My ex-roommate's mom contacted me Saturday on Facebook, so I wrote her back. Laid out some of my thoughts. No response. I'm a bit unsettled by that.

AG.. that would be hard. But having lost a son, I'm sure it's a flood of emotions. I wouldn't take it too personally. She's probably still dealing with her loss in her own way. Maybe she just needs some time...

The improv group is getting caricatures of everyone done, so we were asked to submit photos. I took this tonight:

You have the prettiest eyes. Now tell me why caps never smile with their mouth open? I always wondered this.

*The second one is showing your Gem, for sure.

I don't because I don't have teeth that are flat straight across. I don't have majorly messed up teeth, but they aren't great. There were no adult teeth for the teeth next to my two front teeth. Actually, that's not quite right. To the (my) left of the two front teeth there were two adult teeth. They were both canine, though. On the right side there was no adult tooth for the one next to my two front teeth, so it stole the adult canine, and I never lost my baby canine on that side. So in my top teeth it's not a nice straight line. I envy people with good teeth. I'd also lengthen my teeth if I could. I think mine are on the small side. I definitely didn't get Jim Carrey or Dave Grohl's Capricorn teeth gene.

Let me see if I can find a picture. I think I smiled bigger in one of the photos last night.

Here's an unposed open mouth pic from our little karaoke party:
There's three Capricorns and one Cancer in this pic. Can you tell which is which?

And another:

I kind of liken my mouth area with Jim Belushi. He does open mouth smiles, but for the most part there's no teeth showing.

Much, much better when you smile! Your teeth look fine to me, and you look more natural and less pose-y that way, seriously, you should always smile and show your teeth, it's charming.

aaahhh tax woes...
*sighs*
my SSN was wrong on mine

and as for teeth, mine are big. You can have them anytime you want. I can't smile without showing them. Actually it's quite embarrassing as you can always point me out in pictures bc I'm the one with the biggest smile. My mom actually yells at me for smiling so big.

You have a gorgeous face, so warm.
And it is my opinion that when Bowie got his teeth fixed he lost all his charm. My bloke has car crash teeth and they are so characterful, I wouldn't change a thing about his teeth.

Smile you beauty, smile!

I thought the Cancer was the far right... Something about the body language.

I agree with wheels, straight white choppers are boring...

Is it just me or has everyone gone mad lately?? hmm

You'd be right, Ghani. Very good. You get a gold star.

It's really kind of fascinating to read these reviews. I kind of feel mixed about how I look. I know pretty well that I don't look offensive, but I'm pretty certain I'm also no beauty king. I kind of think myself in the Bill Murray range of looks.

I know that some people have a charisma that seems to transcend their looks. It's like they don't look like models, but people are attracted none the less. Like I have a friend who was attracted to the guy that played Tony Soprano.

I'm pretty good at taking flattering pictures of myself, but it's also kind of fun to take less flattering ones...just to be real.

Sweeeet! I'm usually crap at guessing sun signs, but Cancers do usually seem to be protecting themselves in some way or another...

AG, you're adorable, you seem very assured and capable, just a great guy to have in ones company. And good for you to take unflattering pics of yourself. I take them, but would never show them to people. Sadly, growing up in theater and around these beautiful women has made me insecure. I'm getting better, though.

Yeah, I think my posting some unflattering pictures here is just a feat of courage really.

Oh, and yes, some people have gone mad, and some people just seem to have gone away.

LOL! You know what, we should all have a "post an unflattering picture of yourself day." Wouldn't that be an exercise in courage, AND fun at the same time? I mean we will all still like each other afterwards, and it will prove to the individual that what they think is unflattering maybe quite different in anothers eyes!

I must be an atypical Sag, I HATE having my pics taken, and I always look bad in them, to me. The ones I've thrown away over the years greatly outnumber the ones I've kept.

Some people just cannot be conveyed accurately in a photo, their personality can't come across I think.

But, Ag, you are a lucky one, cause yours does.

Thanks! I'm feeling quite flattered by all of this.

I told my improv teacher last night that I take the best pictures of myself. She disagreed. I'd sent her some pics above including the two that look similar above. Thus far she hasn't taken or used a decent picture of me for our stuff. Now she has the ones I sent plus some new ones she took last night.

I like the idea that my personality is conveyed in my pics. I hope it is. It is sometimes tough, because movement does factor into a impression. Photos can hide both the bad and the good.

Well I haven't had a chance to see your pic's because at work the fire wall..security thing...whatever it's called.. won't let me see most of them... some but not all... yours included...<pouts>

But I've seen pic's of you on here and I have to agree with Gypsee.. you have amazing eyes. They say the eyes are the window to the soul... so there ya go!

And I kinda like the post a BAD pic of yourself thread. I wonder who would actually post a pic and be totally honest about it being a bad pic..not a so so pic lol.
