Quid pro quo

A deal's a deal, and I never renege, so here's my picture for those who requested it. I am, however, not quite as au fait with the mechanics of the whole thing as you artistes are, so I've had to link to a separate page. I apologise for that.

For the record, I do, *occasionally*, open my eyes more than that. It was just a particularly sunny day, and our southern hemisphere sun is particularly bright. That's my story and I'm sticking to it.

Wow, you're lovely! So it's inside and out, then. :)

Thank you *so* much, sweetie. It's actually quite hard looking so different from everyone else. I used to dye my hair to match when I was a bit younger and less secure. But it *really* didn't suit my fairer skin.

How are you? I've missed you!

I've missed you, too. And I've been well, thanks. :)

Blonde jokes are told with *great* glee at family functions. But the old ladies in the village Back Home assure me I'd fetch a *much* higher bride price than my sisters. So I guess it's swings and roundabouts.

Thank you so much! You are so sweet.

Kiki! I'm just about done with that story. You know, the one I said I'd finish months ago??? I feel so guilty. But soon, I promise.
