re: friending– yes, by all means, please do! Everyone who would like to is free to friend/watch/whatever. I’m honored! You don’t need to ask first. When new people friend I like to at least get a “hi, friended you” so I know they are there, but you’re all exempt from that cuz you said so here. :)

re: icon– yes, that is Eponine (Eppy for short), my Papillon. I can’t access the ‘net from my own computer right now because I’m still in the weird living situation with the folks, so I just took a pic I had of her and cropped it so there was something there. She’s the best dog I’ve ever, ever had, and I love her to bits and pieces. :D You can see her on Dogster if you’re a Dogster sort of person. XD

Thanks everyone! Now maybe I’ll stop sidetracking in threads here (er… as much, anyway… lol!)

At least you’re just watching them, I’ve MADE them

Hey, you’re doing something creative; I’m sitting there zoning out. Various friends have been after me to watch the new Doctor Who; your videos may tip me over the edge. My favorite was always Tom Baker; Jon Pertwee was a close second.

Another shameful indulgence is cartoons from my youth – Jonny Quest (the ones from the sixties, not the sequels) has held up tolerably well, but there really is no excuse for Speed Racer when truly excellent stuff like Kenshin and Miyazaki’s movies are around.. Except for the nostalgia thing, but even that doesn’t excuse tracking down ALL of the Speed Racer episodes…

Love me some Torchwood… John Barrowman is HAWT!!! That and I love Ianto and well makes the hubby all misty eyed as he grew up in Wales- town called Llanelli – which is up the coast from Cardiff… or is that down the coast?

As far as the boob test? When I followed the Grateful Dead ( 6 years till Jerry died ) and then Phish – My cleavage was the stash spot for all the illicit substances being snuck in.
This would include your smoking substances and certain types of fungi as well as a small pint of something alcoholic. I was a walking cleavage fun zone !! Even when they started patting people down, I could still make it in with all that amongst the “girls”.
hmmm good times good times

My husband is a cartoon nut so I will have to tell him about this Avatar of which you speak.

BTW sugarleigh I friended you on LJ

At least you’re just watching them, I’ve MADE them. And will probably make more. I love video editing, and when you don’t have original footage (or, since I got Final Cut Express – if you want an excuse to play with crazy effects) it’s pretty fun.

I’m halfway through like three projects right now that I really need to finish, seeing as it’s been like half a year since I posted anything new.

Yeah…

*hides*

When I was younger I was a total pothead. When I used to score weed I’d stash it under my boob on the drive home.

MY BOOBS ENABLED MY YOUTHFUL DELINQUENCY

My breasts could carry pencils for me before I got out of grade school, when I wasn’t fat but thought I was. I also have shoulders like a linebacker, which is kind of a good thing, because everyone I know built like me who doesn’t has serious trouble with backaches and considers reduction surgery, but I particularly hate pictures of me from the back because I just look huge (from the front the breasts distract from the linebacker effect).

there’s a new episode of Simon’s Cat up on You Tube:

Thank you thank you thank you! I had not seen this before and it is life enhancing. (Laughter makes you live longer.)

We don’t currently get cable TV, so my guilty pleasures are more along the lines of fan-made music videos, like the one for Spirited Away to the tune of Coldplay’s clocks, or the dozens of Raven videos (from Teen Titans) to songs by Within Temptation.

I’d always felt I didn’t have the choice – as SM put it – to perform femininity: that my large pores and roundness and facial hair precluded me having femininity at all, without it being like I was wearing drag. I was unduly traumatized by Fantasia as a child. ( Hippo in Tutus. Anyone else with the hippo/tutu trauma? )

Anyway. WNTW taught me that it was accessible, and that if I did it following some basic aesthetic ideas, I could wear clothes that made me feel good. They were also the first people I’d EVER heard that said “change the clothes, not the body”. Without them, I wouldn’t have tried for fatshion, because I would have worn a bad shirt and thought it was a personal indictment.
