Eye of the beholder

Tomorrow's my birthday (actually today, since this is a backblip) and someone else is taking this photo for me. He knows how to make me look good and that should help me from getting sad over the fact that I am now a whole year older than I was yesterday.

It's cheating, I know - I should be the one looking through the viewfinder. But I'm not sure I'd like what I see. So my Blipfoto birthday wish is that you'll let me have this moment of self deceit and let this one slip.
Here's me, looking better than I actually do.
