Small amusing things and one hot guy

[aesc]

#1: I have a menthol rub sort of substance I use to help with headaches/muscle aches. Sometimes after I rub it on, Finn forgets he doesn't like the taste, licks my hand and makes this soft, disgusted "Phhfft, phhffft" sound, trying to get the menthol off his tongue.

#2: Whenever I see someone using one of my older icons, I want to say "Oh my God, here, let me take that and make it less horrible. I'll give it back to you when it's decent." I just saw one of my really early cropping attempts and didn't know whether to laugh at myself, wince in horror, or rush off to see if I could remake it.

Also, if you like SGA and you're on my flist and have not seen these at morebliss's place, I show one to you here because akjdlkf:!JOE! (*looks at dogeared*)




*whimpers quietly but sincerely*

One more thing I shouldn't find funny because it reinforces a stereotype I rail against and because in its more serious forms it discourages people from pursuing their interests in the name of financial success: the fate of the medieval lit. postdoc.

In other news: sgabigbang ALMOST DONE!!!! One last chapter to write, a couple more things to fix, and then my novelty is pastede on yay.

In annoyed and pissed off news: STOP WITH THE FIREWORKS IT IS AFTER THE FOURTH OF JULY STUPID PEOPLE *SMITESMITESMITE*

OH MY GOD YOUR ICON. asfkjlf!!!! You don't happen to have the stock image for that, do you? I'm thinking of doing some of that good old fashioned picspam, and I would love to have something like... like that... to add in. Yeah. Oh, please please say you do!

What is the right word for it?

So--

GUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUH.

Yes, that would be about it. I wish I could become one with my computer monitor, I mean, just... Yes. Guh.

When I see them, I just want to reach in and-- I don't know-- fix them to make them look beautiful, instead of just-- you know-- dull.

I saw one yesterday and thought for a moment about emailing the person who was using it, asking her to remove it while I worked on a much, much better version, and I'd send the new one to her. It's kind of old, too--maybe even from my pre-discolore days.
