missmiah: (Fallen Angel)
([personal profile] missmiah Jan. 12th, 2005 01:16 pm)
I missed my morning class yesterday due to the Army being a giant wad of putzes. Is that even the correct way to pluralize that word? No matter. After dealing with my disappointment (snort) I then turned my boredom to more creative paths and spent the day playing with Photo Shop. Which, I'm sad to say, still mocks me.

My end results are the Fallen Angel icon (seen here) and a lovely panicky Gilderoy icon that can be found in my pile O' icons. I would have liked the pic in Fallen Angel to be a bit clearer, but any closer and I would have lost a lot of the wingspan I really wanted. As for Gilderoy, I had to crop most of the center of the pic (Since it had the length of the catwalk between Snape and Gildy between them and I needed them to be closer. But not in a slashy sort of way, because after spending the last few months writing for Gildy on [livejournal.com profile] bw_afterglow, I don't believe anything short of a compulsion spell would get Gilderoy anywhere near Severus' oral hygiene. Not that I don't love me some Severus. I'm just saying.) and clone bits and pieces to cover up the super obvious merge line. Also, I just like using the F word in such a pretty, girly font and a lovely shade of gray and cream.

Oh, and Jason? Someone commented on the OMGWTFBBQ? icon that you figure so prominently in. Even wearing a fuchsia bra on your head, you are still thought of as "cute". You might want to consider it as a conversation starter. "Excuse me, sir, but what are you wearing upon your head?" "Why, a fuchsia bra and a yellow Christmas bow. Why do you ask?" "I think it's simply adorable and not the least bit scary or psychotic. Would you like to have dinner?" Or something similar, I'm sure.

Hmmm... so, no writing as of yet. But I made icons, that should count for something, yes? No, huh. Damn.

*Note to Self* Mixing the following two is a very bad idea and should never ever be repeated. Do not wake up at Asscrack O'Dawn Early (Okay, seven) and then forget to eat anything until after 8:30 at night. Do not then remember to take your medication for the first time in four days. Because it takes just under forty minutes for Holy Hell to begin somewhere along the digestive track.

Needless to say, I was in no fit state to go to my morning meeting and am barely able to prop myself up in front of the computer without falling over of the dead. But you can be for damn sure that I remembered to eat something within two hours of waking up this morning, boy howdy.

That seems to be everything of interest at the moment. Other than completely weird, yuckyness induced dreams involving people I know, dirt roads, people I know via LJ (who appear as people with completely blank faces and little floating signs above their heads with their LJ ID displayed), several car crashes where in I almost got hit by a flying car!, kissing, a grope or two, spinach (blech), the woods, no sign of DH, dead cell phone batteries, and a dog.

I don't understand it, either.

Regardless of your self-effacing comments, I think your icons are teh cool! The editing on the Gilderoy/Snape icon was very nice.

Crazy dreams! Completely blank faces and little signs ("here's your sign?")! Now my subconscious will probably gank that from you and I'll have a little faceless fest of my own.

And thank you for describing the Jason icon. Until today, I thought that he also had some sort of weird antennae coming off of his head, but I realize after closer inspection that I am seeing background tinsel or something. The picture seems marginally less strange now (I know it's silly; bra & bow = okay, bra, bow, and antennae? = pretty weird).

Oooooh! Likes the new icons! :-) Photoshop is evil. I've only got 6 on my computer and Sig keeps saying stuff like "We can upgrade that!" and I'm resisting because I'm still learning my way around this version.

Speaking of Snape, I really need to get caught up on Afterglow. WHY does Hermione have his wand? I read a few entries the other day and was like, "I MISSED a heck of a lot!" I'll probably use a chunk of the upcoming three-day weekend to do that.

Herms has the wand because... she went to the Hogsmeade Apothecary and found a life size stand up of Harry saying how wonderful a Potions Master Snape is, etc, to advertise Snape's potion line. Which Harry knew nothing about (and since she's shagging Harry...). It didn't take long for her to realize that Snape was using the schools potions ingredients for his business and now she's holding it all over his head. (In case you didn't make the connection, the potions business is to pay off all the debts from when he and Minerva thought they won the Wizarding Lottery and spent money like it was made of tree leaves).

Whooo.... hope that clears up that little bit. Any other questions? Oh, and have you seen how darling Myrtle and her new beau (http://www.livejournal.com/community/bw_afterglow/254297.html) are? I get all sniffly.

Myrtle has a BEAU? *squeaks!* I'm more behind than I thought!

OMG! It's almost the middle of January! Oops. I don't think I've read faithfully for about three weeks. At least it will be FUN catching up! :-)
