I grabbed this shot while walking down El Centro yesterday. (See tiny me reflected up there at the bottom of the round mirror?) When I saw the image, I realized it had a few qualities I really like. It's happy, it's silly, it's weird, it's imperfect, it's off-kilter, it's unsettling, it's casual, it's unpretentious and it's carefree --all good things to celebrate today, on my birthday!Now, where's my cake?

Have always loved that angle with the mirror...glad you caught it---celebrate in style---in SoPas of course! ;-)
Well HAPPY BIRTHDAY, youngin. It's a great shot to celebrate your birthday with. Now, about that cake ... I think you can guess what's coming here. That's right, if you look over your shoulder there's an apple pie following you with birthday candles and party hats, horns and streamers. Have a wonderful day Laurie and thanks for your very inspirational comments about Wyeth.
A Very Happy Birthday, Laurie! Celebrate all those qualities you listed with that cake.
This is awesome. Love your hand and your grin at the bottom. Happy Birthday darling girl.
This is my favorite BIRTHDAY song of all times.
Happy Birthday!! It actually took me a while to figure out what the picture was. From a glimpse, it looked like the mirror was zooming into something. After a few minutes of staring, I realized that it was a mirror by the side of a building. LOL! I hope you enjoy your day! It's the weekend. Time to celebrate! (=
Double D is right. There can be no cake for Laurie. It must be a hot apple pie and since it's your birthday, make sure to have it a'la mode.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY LAURIE, my precious sister/niece !!!!
Wishing you a VERY Happy Birthday & MANY happy returns of the day! Thanks for showing me the world through your eyes day after day... a real pleasure!

May life bring all your best wishes and all the happiness you can bear.
Live long and full of health so we all can have the pleasure and the honor of having you in our world even if it is this cyber world, but as long as you are in it we will be more than happy.
Big happy birthday kiss to you, I’m afraid I’m too far away for baking you your so well deserved birth day cake, sorry...
Hope you had a fun day and that the coming year is a happy and healthy one for you.
Happy, Happy birthday Laurie!!! I love the whimsical nature of this pic...especially the tiny self portrait in the mirror...sounds quite psychodynamic!!! Hope you had a lovely celebration!
