So, what do you think of this picture?
I took it the day after I got my new haircut. I love my new haircut and wanted to show off the fact that I could actually style it! I showed it to some friends and then threw it up as my myspace profile pic. I really like how you can see the front and back and that I actually look halfway decent.
But, I've gotten A LOT of flack for it (yeah, I mean you Monica)! Everyone says I look really mean in it. Or that I'm a gangster. Or that I'm about to kill someone!
I know I'm not smiling, but I feel all cheesy when I'm taking my own picture and I've got a goofy grin on my face.
So, what do you think? Gang banger or normal soccer mom?
I think you'd look much better smiling. You look pissed. Your hair looks nice. :)

Okay...so first...LOVE the haircut!! I do so wish I had the hair to be able to have that style.
And I think that you look like "normal soccer mom"...but one that is behind the wheel of a mini-van full of noisy kids, running late, on the way to a match, in heavy traffic...and the air just went out on the van and the oil light is flashing!
:-D Yeah...a small smile would change all that!! But still, great hair!!!

Love the hair! But I wouldn't want to meet you in a dark alley.. I don't think the hair has anythign to do with that though.

Love the hair! But you do look kinda tough--like you could totally kick my ass!

LOVE THE HAIRCUT! The picture doesn't represent the Lori I know. The Lori I know is warm and caring, spunky/crazy.
This lady pictured looks really mean! She's scary!

I am totally giggling at these comments. I love the one about the soccor mom in a van full of kids. LOL
Love you hair...but yeah....you look a bit mad.

The hair is good, but you look soooo angry. Go for a smile, there's only you there and no one will know you took it yourself if you don't tell.

I likes it! Then again, I am all about the angry pics. :D
The hair look fabulous, though!
Plus, I am a gang banger soccer mom - what's wrong with that?!

You aren't gonna shoot me are you? Gain some rank in the gang? heh. See I'm not the ONLY one! You look beautiful and your hair looks great, but SMILE! LOL.

you don't look like a gang banger AT ALL
however... you look like your kids did something to warrant about a month of time out.

Love the style but you look waaaaaayyyyy to serious in this photo. Does not match your personality at all.....

Gotta agree...the hair is awesome, but if the photo had audio I think I'd expect to hear growling! J/k! ;)

Love, love, love the hair.
You do look a bit peeved though--how about a half-smile or looking not directly into the camera?
