Effects

I was pretty disappointed to discover that very few people had much to say at all about my choice. There were a couple chuckles, but the overall vibe that I got was that most people seemed to take it in stride. I can't say for sure whether this is just a quirk of my social group or simply that I didn't have enough going on for it to be noticable, but I didn't get enough natural feedback from anyone to draw conclusions. 

The few responses I did have were from good friends and of course, my mother. I did learn after the fact that a few other people had considered commenting on it, but didn't really prioritize it. One friend said she "actually just got used to it way too fast," which to me indicates that the flop was probably because there was so little changing in the pictures.
