This...
is the best thing...
ever.
It's absolutely my new favorite picture of myself. I want to make it my new primary photo on my blog. I want it to be my author photo on my next book. I want it carved on my gravestone.
It's me as a character on the Simpsons.
It really looks astonishingly like me, I think. Except that I never wear my hair in a headband.
You can get your own here. And if you do, will you please please please please tell me? If you have a blog or website of your own, post the link in the comments. Or else just email me the jpg, to greta at gretachristina dot com. Maybe I'll Photoshop together a group portrait!
P.S. I want that T-shirt!
(Via Friendly Atheist, who is my new favorite atheist blogger for finding this thing.)
OMG.
This really IS the BEST. THING. EVAR.
WOW.
Just, I'm having problems registering for a name at the site. Did you? My other friends are talking of the same difficulty.
BTW, where did you find that hairstyle? I couldn't find it or one that matches my actual hair (half way down your back long, little body/fine hair, no bangs)

That really does look like you! The glasses really make it.

No, I didn't have any problems registering for a name. Maybe they were haivng a temporary glitch.
They do have a lot of hair options -- you have to keep arrowing through the several pages-- but I also didn't find hair that looks exactly like mine. This was the closest approximation I could find.
And if you post yours on your blog, let us know!

That looks like you to an insane and unexpected degree. Like Groening was drawing you from life. Weird. And I can't use it because this compy doesn't have Flash installed. Crap.

Greta,
They've put up more options on the site... more hair styles, more t-shirt styles, etc. I now have one that actually looks like me.
You might want to go remake it.

Cool! If you post yours on your blog, will you post the link here? I'd love to see it.

Mine doesn't look a heck of a lot like me without freckles. Also, none of the body types actually resemble mine.
