indiana_j1. Reply to this post, and I will pick five of your icons.
2. Make a post (including the meme info) and talk about the icons I chose.
3. Other people can then comment to you and make their own posts.
4. This will create a never-ending cycle of icon squee. Whoo!
The Sound: This was an upclose picture of The Sound from the Outer Banks in North Carolina. We went there one year before Thanksgiving for a family vacation and The Sound was probably the most still body of water I had ever seen. It was very soothing and continued to be a source of comfort and serenity for me, especially since we find
Techie Sidekick: Ahaha. A long running joke with frito_kal and myself - she was more than happy to be the Tech Wonder Woman in the house as long as I played sidekick. And, more often than not because of wrists, I ended up doing a lot of the screwing and unscrewing. She shouted this out to me down the hall and I immediately had to make an icon of it.
Wah! crying baby caterpillar: Oh man. This was from some weird Japanese tea commercial. The daddy caterpillar was taking the baby up the tea leaf to get the best tasting one - but when they reached it, a tea picker was already grabbing it. The baby immediately starting crying while daddy attempted to use hypnosis in order to regain the leaf. It was strange.
crazy: Ahh, one of my favorite characters from season one of Jeremiah, which was the show that former 90210 characters went to die or be awesome. That's Jason Priestley, playing Michael who really believed he was God. While he might not have been, he certainly was bat shit insane.
Self?: From the webcomic Wapsi Square - it was first shown to me by nute when the main character was wearing the 8 ball shirt and shook it around, much to the horrified fascination of her friends to her chest size. "Hey, it's you!" *snerks* And so my love of the comic was born.
~~
Fire!: This was made by aura_wolf and she actually has the same one on her own journal. A lot of our conversations about work at the time tended to start and/or end with "They should all die in FIRE!" or something very close to it. We were both rather disgruntled in our current jobs at the time and so she gifted me with this. It's the icon I use when I'm irritated and want to set people on fire.
The Sound: already done above
WhatEVER: One day I went through a page with animal pictures and made some icons. I came across this trio of penguins and just thought that the first one was in a snit with the other two. He certainly looks it. I tend to use this as a teasing icon more than a snitty icon.
Elle and Emmett: I am a sucker for the Legally Blonde: The Musical. I have never seen the actual movie and I really have no desire to but the roommates put the musical on (and I really didn't want to watch at first...at first!) and I just adored Elle and Emmett together. This is my "why you" icon.
Walking alone: This is my "my headspace is too much"/lonely feeling icon. I found it on a random stock photo sight and I've always really liked black and white pictures. The snow was especially drawing to me, so very solitary. But calming at the same time.
~~
Adorkable: Mmm, one of my favorite scenes from Legally Blonde: The Musical. They were just so, so, SO cute, though I really preferred Emmett with the mussed up hair. Because, really, guh. This is a "so tempting/almost there" kind of icon and, of course, anything that's adorakable. :D
Bouncy: I have no idea where I found this at but when I saw it, I just couldn't stop watching it. Elephant, bouncing! With the flapping ears and everything! Just so cute. Hyper icon to the rescue. ;)
Told You So: Huh, I don't see this one...?
Wah! See above with Nute
Golf Clap: This bunny is the cutest thing ever and there's another picture of him sticking out his tongue. So. Cute. I got the *golf clap* from when I used to play WoW and you could type that in and your character would do this little clap. It's my "You're so impressive </sarcasm>" or tongue in cheek icon.
~~
Also, I've decided that on nights I don't go to the gym I'm going to walk (unless it's raining). Which means that my weeks will look like Gym x3, Walk x4 and for the start, I'm just doing from my house down to the end of the neighborhood and back. It's a little over a half mile walk (is that good to start?) and while I pushed myself into going a little faster than normal tonight, I can probably do that in about 10 - 15 minutes.
Have you ever had your limbs feel like mint? You know that shocky burst you get when you bite into mint? Yeah, my legs feel like that right now. :D
