things!

1; Went back to the library this week for the first time in a couple months, and picked up Catherine Coulter's The Nightingale Legacy, which I think I read once back in high school along with a few of her other ones? (It's been years since I've done the whole romance novel thing; back in the day, I only nosed into that section to give myself (occasional & very brief) breaks between SF/F binges. :P What can I say, I imprinted on my favored genres at a very young age.) In any case, the Coulter was just as bland as I half-remembered. Feh.

On the other hand, I also picked up Ursula LeGuin's The Left Hand of Darkness on karanguni's long-ago recommendation, and as;dlkfja;sldgkh eeeeee! &hearts &hearts &hearts HOLY SHIT, you guys, that was SO SATISFYING. ALSO, MINDBLOWING. I've been dying for a good scifi kick for ages; should've remembered to go back to LeGuin. MORE OF HER BOOKS, I NEED THEM, NOW. Um, possibly I will blog about this one properly when I am more coherent/have finished the rest of the books I borrowed.

2; sophinisba gave me six icons to talk about!

iProngs! *g* I don't remember who made this one, alas- I snagged it a few years ago when there were a bunch of iPod icons making the rounds. I had some Remus/Sirius ones and an SGA one too, but I decided to keep this one because JAMES! PRONGS/FLAILY ARMS! OBNOXIOUSLY GREEN! Hilariously fitting in every sense; I keep it for when I am feeling ridiculous, or when I need a laugh.


I made this one... last summer?... as a pick-me-up for myself; I was trawling for pretty pictures of pretty people to offset a bad day, and Aishwarya Rai was one of them! Her eyes are so stunning.


Ahahaha. I made this one a few months back, after having a laugh about the world's tiniest violins. I got the original picture from ciderpress; I have no idea where she got it, though! Is there a tiny violin photo-stash somewhere on the internet that I can raid???


crossedwires made this one as part of a glorious Saving Face icon post! I'm sure you've all heard me go on about Saving Face before, seeing as I have a tag for it, so I'll just do this short-form: &WIL; &VIV; &WIL/VIV;;;; Cutest ever! :> :> :>


Made by famineghost; snagged because HELLO, TELEPHONE??? LAHV LAHV LAHV, even if all the burning cigarettes at eye level made me wince. xD


Foot!love! One of my favorite scenes from season 1, n'aww. Colin's squinchy face is so precious. Made by hils.

Let me know if you want six! :)
