[neverwhere]

I just listened to My Immortal, by Evanescence. Everyone who's been waxing lyrical about it on their journals (and, wow, there certainly were alot of you) are absolutely right -- it's an absolutely beautiful song. I have no idea who this groups is (are they big in America? I'm sure it makes a pleasant change from those insipid boy bands) but I think I will have to go out and buy all their albums immediately.


I have such gorgeous friends. I saw pictures today of misslunakitty, who has mind blowing green eyes and looks like she just stepped out of a 1950's pinup calendar, and brandybuck, who is just as cute as can be -- playful, hobbity, and utterly adorable. I could go on (trianne has a dazzling smile as bright as a Silmaril, xendragon's a total hottie...etc etc), but I think you all know that you're beautiful. And even if you don't, trust me, you ARE. :)


Yesterday’s stroll around Covent Garden was quite diverting -- I found a stunning purple velvet coat that I simply must buy when I have the chance (i.e. after I rob a bank) and listened to the wackiest String Quartet in the world. The violinists would dance about and do a little jig while playing things like Eine Kleine Nachtmusik, it was so enchanting to see them having such fun, and making classical music entertaining for all the wandering tourists. I'm sure if children were introduced to classical music in that manner, they wouldn't disdain it so much.


And now, because I'm bored and can't think of anything else to say -- My Icons Explained.




Keyword: Happily Ever After

Schmendrick the Magician and Molly Grue from the best film ever, The Last Unicorn. (Okay okay, best film apart from all the other ones I love and adore. Heh. ;-) The quote is from the book/film, and I think it's beautiful. This is a pensive/content sort of icon.

Keyword: Otters are cute and fuzzy.

Because they are! I love otters. They're so me -- playful, clever, funloving, and occasionally very clumsy. Yep, that's me all over. *grins*

Keyword: Pippin Smirk

It's Pip! Making an adorable face that is smug, yet clueless. Ahhhhh, how I love him! As the keyword suggests, this is my snarky icon.

Keyword: Tig! Tag! Drop your trousers!

One of only two remaining original icons, this is a fanart picture of Pippin playing Tig, probably with me. Oh yes. Play with me Pip...*giggles* My bouncy/happy/squeeful icon.

Keyword: Molly and the Unicorn

Molly Grue comforting/being comforted by the Unicorn. My sad/showing love for others icon.

Keyword: Here in my Head.

Tori Amos picture and lyric. I love Tori. A thoughtful/melancholy sort of icon.

Keyword: Have a seat while I take to the sky

My newest and current default icon. I love this one! I've been meaning to use this Tori lyric for ages, but I could never find the right picture. Inspiration hit me yesterday, and this lovely icon was born. It's an everything emotion, because this is how I feel.

Keyword: Psycho Bunny

Hee! I'm cute. I'm scary. FEAR ME! :D

Keyword: I'm so cute

Yep, that's me. Aren't I adorable? :)

Keyword: Neverwhere

Screencap from the opening sequence of the Neverwhere BBC series. I am Neverwhere. I have been for 7 years now, I don't feel like changing. *grins*



Well, that was fun, wasn't it? *grins impishly*

Meep! Your icons are fantastic :) Though I mus tadmit to being scared witless by The Last Unicorn as a child -- thought the red bull would come and eat me in my sleep. Then they turned into an energy drink. Which I refuse to tocuh :)

Wheeee! Thanks for the compliment schnugglepumpkin. *smooch*

The Red Bull still scares me -- both the drink and the beast. ;-)
