This is how you tell me apart from a model...

This picture was taken when I was working as an actress/comedienne at a summer festival about five years ago. The two gorgeous people on either side of me were part of another show that was running at the venue next to mine. They were models. Shawn laughed so hard at this picture I almost had to move out.

But they are too thin - the woman especially. You look thin in the photo but not unhealthy.

Hahahahahahaha! Boner sandwich! I love this picture so much. How tall are these fake-tanned models??? It's like you're on another planet with a race of tree-people.

Just wanted to tell you that this is the third time I have been back here today to look at that picture. It makes me laugh every time! You look about twelve years old. You're so cute. <3

Thanks secret agent. Standing next to these two was incredibly weird. And I find the photo incredibly weird.

ace, I'm pleased that you are pleased, though I'm not sure I like being part of a "boner sandwich". These people were *really* tall, well over six feet. On my home planet I am only a little shorter than average, (5'4'') but on this planet I was definitely a mutant.

Oh, the height thing again. I am 5'1" but consider myself a tall person traveling incognito.

I live with a 6'4" tree person who is unable to change bulbs in ceiling fixtures now, and I am not tall enough even with a stepladder. If we were four-legged animals, Nature would compensate for his AD by making me taller.

And you look better than the swim suit model, who seems to have been retouched by the Ann Taylor people.

I always wondered what it would be like to be tall like that woman. Not only was she tall but she walked around in stiletto heels proudly. In spite of being intimidatingly "perfect" these people were very nice once I stopped being afraid of them. I liked them better once they put their clothes back on.

Is it true that geishas blacken their teeth?

I was in hospital/nursing care for 17 days. Got out yesterday. Feel shell-shocked. Hate it. Stroke my hair now please.

Where the models jealous of you? Inspired? Thrilled?

I had never heard of this, but the internet says it is so. I had no idea. According to the article I read it's because white teeth look yellow contrasted with white makeup. I don't really see how black is better, but maybe it's like deciding to act really bad when you can't be good enough. What made you think of geishas?

I am glad you are home now because the turtles missed you while you were away, and so did I, lots and lots and lots. I am stroking your hair, which looks just the colour of diet pepsi in the sunshine. And you smell like cupcakes. Sniff sniff!

Yes, the models were terribly jealous of my compact design. They thought I was like a Smart car, efficient and practical, no wasted space. They all aspire to look like me, but alas, they cannot, no matter how hard they try.
