I'm bored and avoiding real things...

[tommygirl]

Stolen from the wonderful ligia_elena: Comment and I will give you 3 interests on your list, and 3 icons, for you to explain.

My answers for her.

Three Interests

Idina Menzel: She was in the OBC of Rent in New York City and I used to be a renthead. I love her lots and lots. She was also in Wicked, has a few albums, and is married to Taye Diggs.

Kindred the Embraced: It's a show that lasted about seven episodes about different vampire clans. I loved it so much and miss it like whoa and find myself watching my dvds at least once every few months. Good stuff.

Smarshall: A private joke of my sister's (floundering) and mine regarding Alias pairings. I was explaining how Syd/Sark was called "sarkney" and that Syd/Weiss was "sweiss" and we tried to see if Syd/Marshall would be "Smarshall." It seems though that she and I are the only two people who have that as an interest. Go figure.

Three Icons



roniabirk made this for me in one of those icon interest memes. It's Johnny Depp's arm and he's just hot and I love it a whole lot.



It's another one roniabirk made for me to use. It was based on this picture of Jensen Ackles and Christian Kane that surfaced early last year. Jensen was obviously drunk. And then I wrote an RPS story based on it. And how can I get rid of it when it's so true?



I still don't know who made this for me. It was an anonymous gift for Valentine's Day 2006 and I still love it, mostly because of the nice gesture behind it.

I'll play

I love your Sydney/Jack icon. The more I think about them as a couple, the more I like it.

[storydivagirl.livejournal.com]

That is the whole goal of the icon. To get people so in love with the idea that they write me lots of fic.

They are just *hot* and I love them both so much.

Okay, for the meme:

Interests: alias fanfic writer, largo winch, spies

Icons:

[shay-renoylds.livejournal.com]

I like playing! Can I play? ^^

[shay-renoylds.livejournal.com]

Also! So much <3 for Idina! She's all for the fun! ^^

[storydivagirl.livejournal.com]

Word. I love Idina. She rocks my socks.

for you

[storydivagirl.livejournal.com]

Yes, you can play.

Interests: horror movies, intertextuality, micheal ende

Icons:

[stac88.livejournal.com]

Ok, I'll play

[storydivagirl.livejournal.com]

For you!

Interests: dagorhir, eric lindros, wench

Icons:

[stac88.livejournal.com]

OK...dagorhir: Its a play fighting group that I was involved in a few years ago, similiar to a role playing thing, but you use foam weapons.

Wench: Its part of the whole rennaissance faire thing, and goes with the international wenches guild.

Eric Lindros: A guy I liked my freshman year of college liked the Flyers. I started paying attention to them, and saw a little picture on Eric in the back of a Cosmo magazine that talked about the 19 year old wonderkid. As he was a Flyer, and hot, I was hooked...and have been ever since. Its sad, but back in the day, he was a really good player.

The Icons..

Eeyore: My first tattoo was Eeyore. I liked it.

Siberia: Lyric from a BSB song..and fitting for depressing stuff.

Pirate cupcake: I wanted a pirate icon..and its cute.

As he was a Flyer, and hot, I was hooked...and have been ever since. Its sad, but back in the day, he was a really good player.

I couldn't resist picking that interest because oh, I miss him being a Flyer like whoa. And oh so hot!

[stac88.livejournal.com]

There is the whole Bobby Clark thing, so I'm really no longer a Flyer fan, but they are still a good team.

He is quite the hottie. I was proud of myself that I could actually form a complete coherent sentance when I met him.

Now, if he could only play for a full season.

You don't know how happy it makes me that you not only still use the icon, but that you really like it!

[itsaslashything.livejournal.com]

I love Idina!! And I wanna play!!

[storydivagirl.livejournal.com]

Okay, let's see

Interests: food network, michael rosenbaum is perfect, thank you so much!

Icons:

[itsaslashything.livejournal.com]

Interests:

Food Network: My kids actually got me hooked on this one. It started with the Iron Chef competitions, and then I found Paula Deen and Giata DeLaurentis. It is still the most watched channel in our house.

Michael Rosenbaum is perfect: This one really speaks for itself. He is so beautiful and such a dork, that I can't help but have undying love for him. I'd also have his babies if I weren't like...this much older than him!

Thank You So Much!: This is a line from The Closer. Brenda says it several times in each episode. She's a southern Peach from Atlanta, dropped into the middle of LA. It's an awesome show! She's a bitch, but she's so polite about it!!


Icons:


Tulips are my favorite flower. I found this picture of tulips with christmas lights and just had to make this icon. Over on JF I go by only slashything and I used it there first. Here I'm itsaslashything, but it still works...right?




This is a line from Queer as Folk. Emmett says it during one of the leather nights at Babylon, and it just cracks me up. During this part of that show I was writing some seriously hardcore BDSM fic over on JF, and the line just tickled me!



This one I don't use much. I love it though. It speaks to me of soldiering on even when things are horrid and I just want to go back to bed for a week.


Thanks for letting me play!

[storydivagirl.livejournal.com]

You're welcome! Thanks for playing. I love these things because you learn little tidbits about people on your friends list.

[random-serious.livejournal.com]

Kindred the embraced! I thought I was the only one missing that show like carzy! So much so that when Stacy Haiduk showed up in, like, 2 episodes of Heroes, I squeed out of delight and then flashed back to the fantastic characted she played in Kindred.

[storydivagirl.livejournal.com]

Me too! She will always be a Toreador vampire in my head. My best friend and I used to sit around and think about what clan we would belong to and discuss Cash's hotness versus Julian's. Hee.

[random-serious.livejournal.com]

Oh, oh, oh! And the dracula vamp in the basement or wherever was seriously hot too (Yeah, OK, I'm weird.)

[storydivagirl.livejournal.com]

The Nosforatu clan! Hee.

[naive-girl.livejournal.com]

Sounds like fun! I'll play. :D

[storydivagirl.livejournal.com]

Interests: abnormal people, epic battle scenes, robert-pattinson's-seedy-opium-den-of-doom

Icons:

[naive-girl.livejournal.com]

Here (http://naive-girl.livejournal.com/88349.html?mode=reply) are my answers. :D

[http://users.livejournal.com/amy_star_/]

I'll play too!

Idina is married to Taye? I hate her now! *g*

If Jensen looks that good drunk, he can be that way all the time. *nods*

[storydivagirl.livejournal.com]

Yep, she's very lucky because he's so hot. Her whole album, Still I Can't Be Still told me way too much about their sex life though. Hee.

And really, I'm not sure Jensen is capable of looking bad per se. Hee.

Now for the game...

Interests: bronze beta, econoline crush, jonesy

Icons:

[http://users.livejournal.com/amy_star_/]

The Bronze Beta is/was a posting board for Buffy fans. It's different from its original form, but there's still a linear board over at www.bronzebeta.com.

Econoline Crush are a Canadian band. Their early stuff is heavy, electronics meets metal almost. Their second album is my favorite, with a bit of a neo-industrial feel melding with hard rock. The third is more light-rock but still with that jagged feel because of the way they use the keyboards and effects. They have re-formed after breaking up recently, and a fourth studio album is on its way. This was their big-break single, Home. Link: http://www.yousendit.com/download/TEhYV0p5OC9GOFEwTVE9PQ
And to continue pimping, their myspace is here: http://www.myspace.com/econolinecrush2007
Trevor Hurst is brilliant. Love him.

Jonesy was a character on Carnivale, possibly my favorite. Quintessential good man in a difficult situation, and I will never forgive them for not giving us a third season to resolve his storyline. Anyways. That's another rant. He's played by Tim DeKay.

On to the icons...
The first one, well, I just needed a "bite me" icon. And I love cats, and, well, look at him! He's SO UNIMPRESSED. I love it.
The second one I grabbed from a random troll through an icon community (actually, that's where about 90% of mine come from :P) and amused me. I only use it at appropriate times. *snort*
The third one is my bad!fic icon. I'm not really a Harry Potter girl, but the hubby reads a ton of Potterfic, and some of the stuff I've seen... *shudder* I think I got this from a bad!fic community rec, actually. It does not refer to rape in canon, it's about the raping of canon material, i.e. the really, really bad, horrible, disastrous fanfic you can find at places like the Pit of Voles (or, as some know it, fanfiction.net).

[storydivagirl.livejournal.com]

Ah yes, bad fic land! It's a place I try to avoid if I can.

*Comments*

[skuf.livejournal.com]

Aww, that last icon is really pretty!

Re: *Comments*

[storydivagirl.livejournal.com]

It really is. I love it lots!

And now...

My answers (http://skuf.livejournal.com/144107.html).

[storydivagirl.livejournal.com]

Very interesting! Thanks for playing!

[mel-b-angel.livejournal.com]

Kindred the Embraced sounds really interesting ... who was in it? Anyone we'd know?

Ooh, am I too late to play?

[storydivagirl.livejournal.com]

Mark Frankel was in it, but alas he died in an accident not long after the first season...so even if Fox wasn't full of idiots, it would've gone off. I defnitely suggest checking it out. Such good stuff.

And never too late to play...

Interests: collecting postcards, pink diamonds, socceroos
