Tabula rasa
I am feeling blank today so I am taking some inspiration from YOU my fellow Xangans.
The Best Stuff posted on his experience with swans. So I thought I would share some pictures of one of the swans the kids and I love here.
Gizella Orangespunk aka Amanda, posted on her alter ego…
It made me think about MY alter ego…
What is my alter ego like? Mine wouldn’t be afraid to be sexy, she would be decisive and ambitious.
What would I name her? Maybe Deliahla something… I will have to give it more thought.
I have ideas brewing…
What about you? What would your alter ego be like.

Bold, strong, fearless, divinely beautiful, smart, and always doing the right thing. Wonder Woman.
Humm, we’ll start with thin, beautiful, fearless…wait, I am fearless. Strong, nope, got that down. Smart, articulate, funny, check, check, check. Okay then, me. Only thinner and beautiful-er. Hey doll, glad to be back. Lets see if it takes this time ;0P
It is nice to know that some people missed me!
You are getting too question of the day, what is this an essay contest…I can say this I am her sister.
My ego is too big to have an alter.
I’m with WinsomeONE–my ego is already supersized!!!
If I had an alter ego, she would be the girl who had more female friendships. Maybe a real girl’s girl who cried at movies and stuff.
hmmmmmmm…well, according to Mirriam-Webster: alter ego: Etymology, literally, second I ; a second self; esp. a trusted friend . . . so, my second self might be totally social – ha! A party girl: high heels ((laughing)), short skirts, rocking and rolling every night until dawn . . . God, I just hope she takes me dancing!
love, love, LOVE the swans, btw…my favorite fairytale is the Wild Swans . . . and then there are the swan boats of Boston Public Gardens . . .and swan songs and swan dives , , ,S
My alter ego… hmmm, I’m not sure about that one. Will have to think about her for a bit.
Smugs’n'Hooches!
Down to earth, he has no enemies, always helpful and just the best frien one can have. Love the swan pictures. The second one’s to die for.
Well, I always try to be truly good… so would that mean my alter ego would always try to be truly bad? A scary thought, indeed!
cool. a tomboyish always calm sort of cool. almost like a hero in ways, just that fearless and levelheaded.
or maybe im that already, i dont know
mine is still back home on the ranch…I’ve been working on tracking her down tho
Pics are awesome Angi – as usual.
Alter ego, huh? Sexy, vivacious, spur-of-the-moment, HAPPY no matter what the circumstance, in the groove…..LOL!
Have a good day!
It’s funny because I always say my cat Evamarie is my alter ego because she is feral, neurotic and affectionate. But I meant it because I think that is the way I am. In the sense you are talking about I would say; I always say please and thank you, I would be more patient and I would not rush things so much. Oh, and there would be a man in my life that loves me oh so much.
The swans are so sleek. Unlike ducks.
Alter ego – strong, confident, beautiful.
My alter ego right now is thinking they want to be just like me!
Beautiful pics.
I love swans but I had a bad experience with them when I was a kid. I was walking in the park and noticed some swan puppies (or whatever you call baby swans) walking by the river and so I stopped to pet one. It was cute, fuzzy, and made pleasing noises; so what could it hurt? A lot. I picked the little guy up and was happily petting him when something stabbed me right in the ass. Ow! I looked down just in time to see a swan peck me a 2nd time. A frist I thought it was a goose, but no, it was definitely a swan. It made the mose awful noise until I put her baby down. Honest, I wasn’t going to hurt it, but it didn’t seem to appreciate my good intentions.
I had a good pair of bruises right on my bum for at least a week too…
Hi Angi: I think you could take a picture of a phone book and it would look fabulous, you’re so good with a camera!
This is a really interesting question!
What I like about myself now is my ability to be compassionate and creative, honest and loyal. However, if I could add to these and create an alter ego, I’d say: Strong, inside and out. Feisty. Fearless. Complete faith in myself and in my vision, and the ability to not get discouraged once I’ve set a goal. A little outrageous, very outgoing, flirtatious and irreverent, but my (existing) affection and loyalty for friends, plus generosity and utter charm would earn forgiveness for my little excesses. Oh, and a much better memory than what I have now! Some of these I can learn to do on my own, which I’m working on!
They’re beautiful. But I hate them, they almost ate me up once! -mumbles-
I feel loved
I’m glad you liked my post.
By alter ego are you refering to my ego before or after I reached the alter with my wife?
