Not Speechless

Although mustache Bow Tie o’ the Day isn’t visible– and although this photo is only slightly different from one I already posted in my swimming suit post– this  picture is one of my all-time faves of me. And I don’t like many pics of me at all. But I think this expresses me and my outlook, scrunched into one pic. I think it’s a pretty accurate representation of my attitude as I move through the world. It shows my relationship to the world. Here are some captions I’ve come up with that fit what I see of me in the picture. These are things I can imagine myself saying in this photo. They are words which sorta give you a tiny peek at my philosophies and my life-posture.

  • I love my life this much!
  • Would ya look at this?!
  • Does this swimming suit make my butt look big?
  • Suzanne, this is the exact spot where we’re building a beach house when you retire!
  • Everybody come see this!
  • What do you mean, you forgot the marshmallows for the s’mores?
  • I ain’t goin’ back to work!
  • (When things are tough) Yeah, I’ve got this!
  • (When things are relentlessly tough) Bring it on!
  • (When things are toughest) Is that all you’ve got?
  • Who drank my last Diet Coke?
  • Is all of this picturesque earth just for little ol’ me?
  • (Singing, from the hymn) “The wind and the waves shall obey my will…”
  • I can see forever from here!
  • I can’t believe people would rather start wars than sit on their beach towels together on an ocean beach, around a bonfire, watching sunsets.
  • Wow! I get to have all of this scene’s elegance AND a cool swimming suit!
  • This is photoshopped, right?
  • Hey, wind, water, sky, sun, clouds, sand, swimming suit! Come here and let me give you this big bear hug.

If you’ve got a caption you think captures my spirit in this photo, feel free to share it. I’m curious to know what kinds of things others think I could be saying in this picture.

  1. You are the coolest person I know! I’ll sit on any beach with you any time you want! And I’ll be especially happy if you wear the swim suit in this photo!
