I think...I think I want to replace all of my icons with icons of ANIMATED THINGS THAT BRING ME JOY. I don't know if I will, but that is my current urge.
(Now featuring: the titular character of The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya, that one anime I went kind of crazy about and still really really want to write fic for...some day.)
I feel a bit weird about this urge because I don't really want to pimp Naruto to anyone on my current flist, because directing people through the quagmire of terrible animation and bad pacing that is the first HUNDRED EPISODES while also making sure they obtain knowledge of plot and character details is a Herculanean task only undertaken by mad people or
ryokophoenix. (Which is sad, because Shippuuden is made of sheer unadulterated okay, occasionally-adulterated-by-residual-pacing-issues AWESOME and I love all the characters into little tiny pieces, especially my three favourites.) But I WILL whole-heartedly recommend my other icon sources like Death Note and Ouran and AVATAAAAR and of course the abovementioned Haruhi show.
Right -- I am about to do some notetaking, walk to the shopping centre and back, and then do some more notetaking, but after that I may have some free time, so, here's an interesting meme that I stole from
bravecows:
Everyone has things they blog about. Everyone has things they don't blog about. Challenge me out of my comfort zone by telling me something I don't blog about, but you'd like to hear about, and I'll write a post about it*. Ask for anything: latest movie watched, last book read, political leanings, thoughts on yaoi, favorite type of underwear, graphic techniques, etc. Repost in your own journal so that we can all learn more about each other.
The thing about me is that I often don't mind talking about personal aspects of myself, but it never occurs to me to do so. So this is probably a good meme. Have at! If I find a question too weird or personal then I'll tell you so, but you should be fine to ask me anything at all.
*Or, you know, talk about it in a comment. Some of these answers aren't very long!

Hmm! I think everyone on LJ already knows about my prediliction for mediocre sci-fi. Let's see what else.
- dreadful action films like The Saint, Mr & Mrs Smith, the Die Hard series, Bond movies, etc.
- certain romantic comedies. only certain! romantic comedies are very polarising: I either love them or detest them. if they have Drew Barrymore in them they get an EXTRA LEVEL of detestation.
- reading long, involved, terrible fanfic. I do this when I am totally mentally exhausted and just want to follow a thread of narrative with minimum effort and maximum trashy payoff.
- food-wise...Cherry Ripes and iced coffees
- not that you'll consider this a guilty ANYTHING, but: pop from my childhood :D
YOU STILL NEED TO SEE HARUHI BY THE WAY. It's short. Any chance we could marathon it sometime between the 20th and the 30th?
