Your refund for ICANN fee overpayment

[carmen_lj]

An exciting email about paying too much for my website! Hurrah says I! We have reduced our registration fees and owe you money says email! Hurrah says I!

Here is your six cents, says email!

Boo. I was all excited for, like, three seconds.

Anyways, here is an Exciting Meme because I have not done a meme for forever.

Comment and I will give you 3 interests on your list, and 3 icons,for you to explain. Then you must post the answers in your own journal and allow others to comment.

Here is what nostalgia_lj gave self:

highway 61 - my favourite Dylan album. I am a Dylan!cliche, sadly.
wandering aimlessly - from when I lived in Edinburgh. I have an appalling sense of direction and that was my way of finding stuff. IT DOESN'T WORK.
fred the cybermat - an in-joke from the OG. There's a regular game of Survivor in the Timelash forum, and it's built up over the years to include a lot of side-games and, um, guest stars, like Peter Cushing, and that porter dude from Spearhead in Space and Fred, a Cybermat. He even has his own page in the Survivor wiki, cause it's that sort of a nauseatingly cliquey forum game. (Er, I do love it though.)

because stories are better when there aren't. Or I like them better, at any rate. Also it had a pretty drawing on it, yes. I have no idea where it's from, because I do go aforaging for icons and am shallow at things that are pretty to me.

from Men in Black! Because it amused me and Will Smith was right: little Tiffany did deserve to die. There's probably a deep message in there somewhere.

a quote from Black Books when Bernard is faced with a decision and has been given only two equally irritating choices. There are many, many quotable Black Books lines, but I feel this one constantly amuses me and is terribly versatile, yes.

I've got to butt in here and say, palmetto, your icon is the best I've seen in YEARS....
Do you know how many times I tried to get a still shot of his arse over the console like that? Damned software just won't get it clearly...

I just sat in VLC, turned the framerate as low as it could go, and snapped every single frame. It was a lot like photography--there were so many crappy shots and one good one. :D

Feel free to use the icon, just credit. :)

O my dog, ta very much! I also use VLC but just could not get it to render a proper clear still frame. Ah well. Best left to people with more imagination and patience, praps...

:)

Ta very, very much!!!

It is a lovely shot, and I may want to borrow it, too.

1993 toyota pickups, bnl, trick semes

[palmetto.livejournal.com]

1993 Toyota Pickups: A cherry red '93 Toyota pickup is the first vehicle I ever drove. I now own that truck. It's old now, and cantakerous, and has had more than its share of bumps and scrapes between me and the previous owner, my dad. It's still the best truck ever, and I ♥ it.

bnl: If I had to pick a favorite band, it'd be the Barenaked Ladies. I have every one of their albums (except Maybe You Should Drive, which has become a matter of joking at this point) and can sing along with most of them when they come up on my Zen.

trick semes: Uh. Well. That's a relic from my days in anime fandom. >_>; Basically, it's the delicate boy that people assume is a bottom, but is really a top. An old injoke that comes back to haunt me every so often? :D

Icon 1: Haruhi from Ouran Host Club. First episode, before the real wackiness ensues. I actually never finished watching the series, but everyone needs a good 'bzuh?!' icon and that one just fits.

Icon 2: My Christmas icon. :D

Icon 3: I was a member of hpicons and had to have this icon as soon as it was made after watching GoF. Neville Longbottom is adorkable.
