A lot of folks ask me about the "rules" of this project. I posted them way back on Day 5, but here is a slightly updated list. It's a work in progress, so please give me feedback if you think I've forgotten anything!
THE RULES
1) The project started on March 26th, 2011 and will end on March 25th, 2012. (FYI - I'm getting married October 1st, 2011!)
2) I allowed myself a 1-month transitional period. This is when I figured out how to navigate/avoid mirrors in my daily life, and how to apply make-up, style my hair, put in contacts, etc. without using a mirror.
3) Reflective surfaces do "count". Window shopping has become very tricky... :(
4) Of course I use my rear- and side-view mirrors when driving. I just can't use them to check myself out!
5) I'm allowing myself to look at my shadow.
6) When using skype or other video-chat programs, I disable features that allow me to see my own image.
7) My readers voted on Day 36, and I'm NOT allowed to view photographs of myself throughout the year ... with the exception of my wedding photos. ***NOTE - I'm not actually sure whether I'll look at my wedding photos, but it's nice to have the option!
8) Any/all of these rules become null if this project makes me go insane.

Have I forgotten anything from this list?
