Complete, utter, devastating embarrassment

Part one:
So, about a week ago I decided I'd take a page out of [livejournal.com profile] minrho's book and take some before and after pics of myself in the mirror, to see if Kung Fu would help me lose weight and build muscle. I wasn't brave enough to post it to LJ (I was thinking about it, telling myself, "Body positive! Be proud of what you look like!" but I kept squirming out of it.) Anyway, I still have the image on the harddrive, me in front of the mirror, sweatpants and sports bra, cheesy grin, trying ot look muscular. This image had the generic file name, "Image_005".

Part two:
A few days ago, I managed to get in touch with Trisky's breeder, from whom I bought Trisky ten years ago. I sent her a bunch of pictures of Trisky and she emailed back to thank me and tell me more about the rest of the litter. I decided it would be nice to send her the most recent picture of Trisky, which I took yesterday and put in a folder inside of a folder inside of a folder. This image had the generic file name, "Image_005".

You can guess the rest.

If I wasn't laughing so damned hard, I might kill myself in some really imaginative way right now.

:D

which shows that you should always rename photos of yourself AND post them to lj!

Heee. Still not sure about the posting. And as far as the particular photo, I got mad at it (it was its fault, you see, and not mine,) and trashed it right away. ;)

THis might cheer you up. (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v78/kapunua/JRMnakiewetandangsty.jpg) At any rate, it always works for me. ;D

I heartily agree!
