This is the "Icon-Explaining Meme" (one of many that's been going around). Comment here and I'll pick 7 of your icons; you explain here or in your LJ what they mean to you and why you're using them.

In the meantime, here are my icons that gloriajn asked about:

Honesty 101 here... I am rather boring though.

1: Carly Cow is a self depracating perversion of Carly Kai, which is the short form or affectionate version of Charlotte Katherine. Somedays I feel a bit like a cow - what the heck though, I'm somewhat the smart ass so it can be a pink cow. In the department of total honesty, it also lets me hide when I am feeling a bit insecure...

2: the bathroom. A hotel in Victoria is also the venue of choice for a local kink group; usually this is fine as the group rents the entire conference area and kink and non-kink do not meet. I discovered while attendeding a work shop that the group had rented only half of the venue - the other half being occupied by a local computer users group. I had to pee. I'm not passable in harsh lights or up close so I had to decide on the women's or the men's bathroom. I opted for the women's and faced some less than happy females...

3: My red dress that I wore during my first photo shoot with a human at the end of the camera. This one represents the shy me, the unsure me.

4: Zombie me is how I feel without coffee and when I mess up my holy trinity of estogren, spiro and provera.

5: Mannequin Head is a sad indication of where I am in the transition process - I percieve that people do not view me as boy or as a girl, making me feel like I am not a human, just an inanimate store dummy.

6: Carly baby is me and my mom... I use this one when I think of my pseudo re-birth when I dicovered who I was and did something about it.

7: Kink is the only user icon that shows the neanderthal me (on the left), a person who is perhaps diametrically the opposite of me - This icon carries a lot of emotional baggage as it reminds me of the many aspects and facets of my life that could not follow me...

But mostly the coffee, I'll bet.
