Six HNT

If you've been by since last week, you'd know that this blog celebrated its 6th Blogoversary last week (actually, last Wednesday, but I spaced it out). So all this week I've been reposting some of the first writings of this blog. As I said when I started that, I think I was a better writer back then. I'd like to get back to where I was. I hope you'll check the reposts back to last Friday.

I wanted to do some sort of celebratory HNT for the 6th Blogoversary, especially since I spaced it out last week. Something based on "six". Possibly six pictures? Nah...that's overkill. Painting a big "6" on my body somewhere? Nobody would want that. Ooh! Take a picture of something I've got six of! Think about that for a minute... There's not really a whole lot, if anything, that we have SIX of. God seems to have figured that we don't really need more than two of anything, other than fingers and toes. And then it hit me!

But first, a story. When my nieces were growing up in the 90s, we used to tell them that their Uncle Os was born with six toes on each foot, which were amputated as a baby. This was always a source of fascination for them. And in the summer months, during the days of flip flops or bare feet, I'd let them inspect my feet. And there it was. I have what seems to be an unnaturally large gap between my big toe and the rest of the toes. I haven't really seen anyone else with quite the same gap. And my big toes work almost as well as the opposable thumbs on my hand. I can grab things, twirl them, toss them, and all sorts of other things. I'm a freakin' freak of nature!

Anyway...my nieces would come and check out this gap, get all grossed out, then run off to grab Uncle Os another beer. Which was the real goal anyway. So what better way to celebrate this blog's 6th Blogoversary than to show off my foot, and the gap where my 6th toe was "removed" (trust me, the gap is much more prominent than it appears here!)?

As an added bonus for this picture, I took it this morning in the brilliant sunshine.
The same sunshine that's kept us in the mid-40s for almost two weeks now
and has melted just about all the snow.
I do this for my friends back east. I knew you'd appreciate it.
ETA: NO comments about needing a pedi, please.
I never realized how truly dorky looking my feet are!

I am a woman. So strange to type that word. Woman. When I think of the word woman I think of those who are in their later years with a lot of wisdom, knowledge and experience. Those who have been through so much more than myself. So I rarely refer to myself as a woman and think of myself as more of a girl. A girl who is living and learning about life. I come here to write about the “chaotic clutter” that goes on in my head. I am also a girl who will grab her camera or use her cam to take photographs. Sometimes of myself. Sometimes of other things. I am an overly sexual girl who is going through a continual journey and I enjoy expressing the way I see my adventures through words and photographs. My eye is drawn towards erotic photography but I see beauty in so much more.
Our bubbly, but secretive Mystery Guest will be revealed on Thursday afternoon. Be sure to come back to find out who it is!
This week's MG is The Secretive Writer! You need to stop by and see why exactly she was needing to take a bath (and shame on you if you've never been there)! Say hi while you're there too!

Lots of nekkidness over at "...the Other HNT" this week. Be sure to support your fellow HNTers and leave some comments, OK? NSFW, as usual!

A new development as of this afternoon. The new chairs for the orchestra arrived today, as well as the rest of the music stands. And since we have a concert this weekend, what better time to show them off? This of course, means I have to assemble, unpack and load the new equipment. And transfer the old stuff to a different storage area, since it won't all fit in our current one. With that in mind, I'm assembling rolling chair racks tonight, and doubt that I'll get around to see anyone until sometime Thursday. Hope you're all looking good this week!
