Want to join the Come As You Are Blog Party?
Take a photo of yourself… RIGHT NOW… and post it on your blog. Then invite/tag (ping) the next 4 bloggers that you want to see “as is” 
Then tell us WHY you look that way (in your photo), and say something about the person that ‘tagged’ you with this Meme!
I’ll start…
That’s me in my favorite flannel pajama pants, a hot cup of coffee and my “I’m not quite awake yet” face on! My commute to work is short: wake up, brush teeth, put coffee on and power up the computers. (I’ll brush my hair later!)
Now you know why I dont like unexpected company 
Who I’m Inviting to the Come As You Are Blog Party:
And… I’ve got entirely too many cool friends to stop at just 4, so you guys are invited too:
How to Participate
If you’ve been tagged with this Meme (aka Bleme, or Blog Meme), join us! Let’s keep the Come As You Are Blog Party rolling through the blogosphere! Simply create a new blog post with the following outline:
1) Take an “As Is” photo of yourself and post it
2) Give us a quick little bio about you, and what’s going on in your home office today
3) List the links to 4 bloggers you want to invite to the Blog Party
4) Tell us who invited YOU, and link back to their CAYA post
5) If you use Tags, include “come as you are” and “bleme” in the tags for this post so that we can check out all the cool bloggers who join in!
(You may want to tell your readers that you are joining in on the CAYA Blog Party, and give them a link back to this post so they can see what it’s all about)
Have fun!
(I dont think this tops that one pic of me floating around where I’m in sitting indian style in Camo pants at the computer! 
Anyone remember that one? hehe)

[...] In response to Lynn’s ping for the “come as you are” meme, here’s a pic. Gawd, I hate pictures of me. [...]

Great idea Lynn, I don’t usually get involved in the viral invite thing. But I did publish my own article with the general theme!
Thanks for the idea, Brett

[...] Yesterday morning I was catching up on all the blog posts that I have missed over the last week and a half. When I got to the bottom of mrscrumley’s blog I discovered that she tagged me for a meme called “Come As You Are Blog Party.” [...]

[...] A few days ago many of my friends participated in Lynn’s “Come As You Are Blog Party“. What was it all about? It was about sharing your special place. The place you blog from. Take a picture of yourself right now. [...]

Woops…where have I been? Just on my cell phone, surfin’ while watching New Adventures of Old Christine (think you’d love that show, Lynn, if you don’t already watch).
When I get on my laptop 2mrw…I’ll get right on it. I promise not to put on any makeup, but I will probably brush my teeth first.

[...] Anyway, she invited me to a Come As You Are party started by Lynn Terry. I don’t mind being tagged but a picture of me as I am? I’m no party pooper, hopefully, I won’t drive traffic away from my blog. Here I am, in my God given glory… [...]
Come as you are blog party « A “Can-Am” couple’s adventurous travel stories // Dec 2, 2006 at 3:10 pm
[...] Zoe looks thrilled to be a part of the festivity, doesn’t she? She’d been fed a big breakky and was really wanting to curl up in a little ball and sleep the day away, an old dogs favorite activity. As for me, well, this is me at work - just snapped a quick pic with the webcam. Haven’t done much else with myself - I’ll be getting dolled up later this afternoon for the BareNaked Ladies concert tonight - pretty dang excited about that, will tell you all about it this weekend. I was invited to this party by a friend of mine from “the box” Arika, a Virtual Assistant and Tax Expert. One fun thing about playing along has been to follow the back the invites and check out all the blogs people have going. The whole idea started here - Lynn Terry’s ClickNewz! I’ve really enjoyed browsing through her stuff this morning. [...]
