Stuff?

I found this really cool collage thing looking through a friend's flist - basically it's all my friends' default icons. Behind cut, because very bad for dial-up!

Feeling blah and sick at the moment, so being rather non-commenty... sorry. I'm here, really! Also this week was half term, so I had the children all day, every day. *sigh* They're wonderful of course, but I'm looking forward to monday very, very, very much! Also cheering me up is this pretty icon made by sandy_s. :)

Hope you're feeling better soon!

[elisi]

Thank you! :) It's just morning sickness that got confused and thought it should stay all day.

There is seem to be a common theme through your flist! ;)

Hope you'll feel better soon!

::offers you some tea with lemon::

[elisi]

A theme? Pray what could that possibly be? ::giggles::

Thank you for the well wishes. And tea sounds like a wonderful idea... will go make some!

I hope you're feeling better soon. *hugs*

Half term starts on Monday for my children. The only good thing about it is not having to get up quite so early in the mornings. I'll be insane by the end of the week. :)

[elisi]

Thank you! *hugs you back*

I love sleeping in, but after a few days even the thought of the alarm going off at 6:30 starts to look appealing. School is a wonderful thing! *nods*

I really like that collage thing--and your (newish?) layout!

Hope you're feeling better soon and move past the morning sickness part. Unless you're like one of my friends who had it the entire pregnancy! Eek.

*hugs*

Poor thing! Every sympathy, both with the sickness and the kids. I still have the joy of half term to come ::shudder::

Soon be Monday. Meantime make considerate husband take the kids, put your feet up, drink peppermint tea for the nausea and wallow!

((hugs))

Ooo! Pretty collage! :)

I'm sorry to hear that you're sick! *hugs* I hope you feel better soon!

All those icons really do make a pretty collage. And there's mine! Hee!

I haven't been commenting very much lately, either. In fact, I meant to comment on the last chapter of your fic, but I couldn't come up with any interesting way to say that I liked it. And that kiss in the beginning was very hot, too. :)

Hope you'll feel better soon!

Cool little script, makes for a pretty picture :> Sorry you're feeling ill and tired. Monday'll be here soon!

This icon meme seems to be sweeping through LJ at lightening speed. And I only changed my layout last week - I got a bit bored. ;)

one of my friends who had it the entire pregnancy! Eek.

How awful! This will thankfully only be temporary!

[elisi]

Thank you for your nice comment!:)

And remember - half term only lasts a week! You can do it!

I'd not heard of peppermint tea as good for nausea - will have to give it a go. Husband very kindly bought ginger biscuits, but sadly I feel sick just looking at them, so that didn't really work out!

[elisi]

*hugs you back*

Well, the sickness will pass I know, it's just one of those things...

[elisi]

I like your icon - very wintery! :)

Also thank you for the feedback - very glad that you liked the kiss. Feedback can be tricky though. speakr2customrs's latest story had me writing reams of feedback, where as thedeadlyhook's William fic just makes me go 'guh' and I write something like: "I read. I liked. Em... can't think of anything else." ;)

And thank you for the well wishes.

[elisi]

Oh, I'm looking forward to monday very, very much! :)

And is your icon a picture of you? It's lovely!

[yourlibrarian]

Yep, it is. I recently made one of those Portrait Illustrator icons and found a photo was helpful to match to. It was rather fun doing, I made one for Mike too :>

[elisi]

Well, you're very pretty! :) I doubt my husband would ever let me have one (he's a bit paranoid), but I intend to do a picture spam tomorrow, what with it being Valentines and all.

[yourlibrarian]

*Blushes* I've been told I'm photogenic -- repeatedly. In other words the camera fibs somewhat ;D

Well, your husband does have a point. I'm guessing that's why a lot of folks use the PIM avatars instead of photos, other than the fact that you've just spent an age assembling it and it's fun to use! Mike says it looks a lot like me but I doubt anyone would actually recognize me from it.

Of course for that matter photos can make people less identifiable than one might suppose too. Our school has a big distance education program and as a result created individual bio and photo spaces for all the students for more of a community feel. When I teach I often have photos of about half my students. It does help me learn their names faster given that I'm sitting in a classroom looking at them for an hour. But if I was just trying to recognize them walking around the building some of the photos wouldn't be as helpful.

[elisi]

Well, be glad that you're photogenic! My mother's the opposite - if I was cruel I'd do an evil picture post some day, but luckily for her I'm not. ;)

And I know what you mean about photos not looking like people. Although it does puzzle me why people use *ugly* photos of themselves as icons. Anyway, must run.
