Autumn sent me TWO masks and says: Sight UnseenHow do you gage a person without looking into their eyes?Is it the tilt of the head? The upturned lips of a smile?The set of the jaw?Or is it the mystery of sight unseen that carries the greatest appeal?

Barefoot Dreamer says: "Hello. How are you?""Fabulous," says I with a beaming smile.My smile lies. Watch it carefully. It will fool you. It took years to construct it, to perfect the ploy. My smile will knock you unsteady. But the truth lies in my eyes. Study them and you will know me.For my smile lies. It is my mask.

Sailor says: Every day, I put on a mask- I hide myself in the uniform of a corporate drone, and hope nobody can peek beneath it to the naked, raw self, that is the real me. Sometimes, though, some people do see- and then, I am most vulnerable; however, it's also then that I am the most alive.

Southern Sage says: The outlaw tag was hung on me at about 14 years old. I didn't ask for it but I got it anyway. So much so that my "handle" or nickname on the CB while hunting (usually a given nickname not one chosen by the person) is in part, outlaw. When you live in a small town and you get tagged this way you get blame/credit for damn near everything and not just the things you actually

"After Paradise" is a blog no longer in existence and Adam has been transformed into another. But before he changed identities, he shared his mask with me and said:"After Paradise," has provided me, the mask of Adam. I've been seaching, and now, I realise, that if I were to truly reveal the mask I wear, it would be a smile, hooked upon my face...hiding the little boy who was bullied. I use this

AndyT13 says: I'm really in a rough spot emotionally. I'm lonely and depressed which makes no sense since I'm surrounded by friends who love and support me and my music and my efforts to stay sober. After 16 days last night was the first time I really felt like "Man, fuck this. I REALLY want to get loaded." I was really angry at a friend and just fed up with everything. I'm still really angry and

Bud says: I ODed on holidays in general and especially this one when I spent my entire adult life up to four years ago as an elementary classroom teacher. Trust me, the holiday thing can get old. It did for me and Cathy, anyway. I know, I know, some teachers never tire of it. You know the type. They're still telling the same jokes too. Not that there's anything wrong with that.

Cap'n says: The reason for the camo is twofold. One, I love spending time outdoors watching nature come alive. Two, LB has a penchance for camo.Often, like most men, I might hide emotions behind camo...not allowing anyone to see any confusion, anxiety, hurt, etc. In general, men are weak emotionally. What they usually need is reassurance that they're good and strong in real, tangible ways. Stroke

ChickyBabe says: On (my) blog, I wear the mask of anonymity by choice. My vital features remain hidden from the world, yet my blog persona is an integral part of me, as real as I am. To the mere observer, one can see an ornate façade, with flirty feathers, sassy sequins and midnight colours. Yet looking closely, one can see through the window of my soul.Don't let her fool you.She's also a Super

dangergirl says: "The similar mask in the background begs the question 'Is it identical or similar?' That is how I tend to view people – look for the similarities and also the differences which may be subtle. Not everything is black and white (contrary to my family’s opinion) and I tend to live in the gray area which is messier but infinitely more interesting. Regardless, I don’t have the luxury

I can no longer find Felicity's typepad, so I guess she's gone. =(Back in Nov '06, she made a mask post for me and said: Of course, being the literal person I am, and the person who overthinks everything... that's why I like endorphins and alcohol, the two things that shut off my Monkey Mind...And then the wonderful flattering comment from my girl Mari... wherein she said, and I quote, "...it's

ME says: I know a picture of my lips is not original for most of you (wink), but when given the task "describe your mask" it is only natural that I'd use my smile. It is a mask in every definition. It has been used alot lately to conceal emotions and frustrations. I can not conceive replacing it with any other costume piece. It can be changed to any color.

[Oct '08] Mojo sent me some masks from H'ween '05 and says: "Ever done the "Time Warp" on rollerblades? I have." Yeah, I make my own sticks. Do my own stunts too. I shoulda won this contest.... but I couldn't outskate office politics. But I'm not bitter.After further discussion, Mojo decided to send me an additional one and when I asked him how/why it is *his* mask, he said: "First, because I'm

SCH says: I picked this because it is solid gold which represents wealth. This was also the mask of a monarch, a very powerful individual. The article accompanying this mask read:Archeologists have discovered a 2,400-year-old golden mask that was likely made for a Thracian monarch's funeral. The mask depicts a full face with moustache and beard. The rare artifact is made of 600 grams of solid
