I feel puny. Both of my ears are infected {insert whine}, and they feel like they will soon be exploding right off my head...taking much brain matter with them. My throat is sore {boo hoo}, and talking makes it hurt worse. I am in a feverish state and shaking like a leaf at what must be subzero temperatures in my house {violin, anyone?}. However, it's Self-Portrait Challenge time, and I briefly entertained the notion of not bothering to post anything for it. Why bother? Sometimes when I see what others post, while interesting and well-done, I fail to see how it really fits the theme for the month. Then again, we all have our own unique thought processes, and self-expression of them is the name of the game when it comes to the SPC. This month's theme is enclosed places. Should I take a picture of the cotton ball that is currently shoved into my ear? Uh, I'll pass. That would actually fit the theme, though. ::grin::
Anywhoooooo, in keeping with the theme of confining and enclosed spaces (and not out there on some super cerebral plane of consciousness), I have posted this self-portrait of me inside a revolving door. It was taken in Chicago on August 4, 2006, just as I was entering our hotel after having seen the King Tut Exhibit.

I like the impromptu nature of your self-portrait in an *enclosure* ... and can so relate to the icky illness feeling (SAME HERE! why is it so cold at the moment!)
I hope your ears get better soon! Also just wanted to say, from the perspective of a newcomer, that I think SPC is most interesting when people try and go with the theme. What's got me thinking here is that someone has thought to take a photo of you in the doorway.. between a hot street and deeply cool hotel. Intriguing..
Looks like we don't know if we're coming or going! :)
Revolving doors have always fascinated me, I don't know why. They seem a little creepy to me sometimes. I think being trapped in one would be strange, especially those really big wooden framed ones. I'm also nervous about my kids going through them sometimes and getting caught in between.
I think this is perfect for the theme - revolving doors creep me out! You look pretty though. :-)
I hope your ears get better soon.
AWWW Nikki I'm sorry you feel like crap:( You look happy in your SPC though :)
Sending virtual chicken soup, cotton balls and hugs. XXOO
Feel better soon!
Hope you feel better. Hey maybe I should go test my camera. Does a cramped closet count? LMAO
get well!
Aww Nikki hope you are feeling better now?
Want some soup? I will run right over! ;)
Wish I could
Jodi
