Buy the good stuff.
I learned an important lesson today: HP Photo Quality Paper, Matte Finish is total shit and is not worth my money. But HP Premium Photo Quality Paper, Glossy is pretty.
So why was I printing pictures at home [on Dad's super nice HP PrintScanCopyOrderPizza]?
Because I’m a digital junkie and how else would I create my senior pictures?
I finally won the great Senior Picture War of 2002 with Mom and got out of using a professional photographer. Instead, it was me, a picture from last October, and Photoshop.
Yes, I Photoshopped my senior pictures.
I changed the neckline of my shirt so it didn’t look so weird and…okay, yeah, I gave myself a digital tan. It’s subtle, though!
Well, I could have done much worse and added in a UFO in the background. I certainly considered it.
And as promised, cute kid pictures:
[ONE]: Rachel and Elizabeth, sitting in the backyard.
[TWO]: Rachel and Anna dancing on the picnic table in their backyard.

You photoshopped your senior picture? Ha ha, hee hee, ho ho…. actually, that’s a really good idea.
It looks like I’m just not going to have any. Eh.
