Saturday, March 30, 2002 Posted 18:28 by Del C this is my personality type according to The Funky Shapes Test that Maril sent me. YOU ARE ANALYTICAL, trustworthy and self-confident. You appreciate things that are of high quality. Your personal style is elegant and refined. and look, Maril! i'm Michelle Branch! heheheheheh... You�re Michelle Branch! You�re the �girl next door� type of gal. You�ve got a down-to-earth feel about you, and you�re not afraid to be original. You�re still trying to find your place in life, but that doesn�t mean you�re not enjoying the trip. Rich and famous? Sure! But you�re not gonna let that go to your head. ;D What Kind of Pop Princess Are You? Quiz by Jonah swiped me a few quiz thingies off of Maria's LJ. let's start with this rather apropos Sidekick thing Who's Your Movie Sidekick? Find out @ She's Crafty i don't really like Pretty in Pink much, but i do like Duckie. Which Breakfast Clubber Are You? Find out @ She's Crafty i did relate to Allison. a lil bit. not including the pathological liar thing. :) Who's Your Inner Buffy Bad-Girl? Find out @ She's Crafty whatta gal! seriously psycho, but whatta gal! Posted 08:14 by Del C i haven't so much as touched my X-Men comics and stuff in a long while, but i still love them, of course. and so we have... I'm Rogue What X-Men Character Are You? ah have loved Rogue for the longest time, and when they first started flirting i used to be such a Rogue/Gambit 'shipper. but i kind of gave up on them bcause their combined angst was slowly sucking the life out of me. now i prefer Rogue/Iceman. so cute, those two would be! and i still have hope for Rogue/Magneto. :) and yet another favorable result for me: i am Kermit! it's not easy being green! You are Kermit! Though you're technically the star, you're pretty mellow and don't mind letting others share the spotlight. You are also something of a dreamer. Take the What Muppet Are You? Quiz! Friday, March 29, 2002 Posted 18:56 by Del C you know what really gets me mad though? all the stupid junk i get in my hotmail inbox. i mean, i really really hate spammers. they keep saying it isn't spam, but i say if it's crummy useless stuff that i did *not* ask for, then it's crummy useless spam!!! Posted 13:10 by Del C today i saw Eye of the Beholder. it made me wish Ewan would stalk me. after that was Breakfast at Tiffany's. George Peppard es muy guapo in this. and Audrey Hepburn, what can i say that would do her wondrousness justice? {sigh!} music for today: i listened to a few of my classical cds -- Mozart, Beethoven and Tchaikovsky. and Latel's Karen Carpenter cd. i love you, Karen! know who else i love? Maril. she did this Q&A thingy for me, and here's the relevant excerpt... Q: If u could give me anything, what would it be? A: A better phone. And a million free messages ;) Oh, and RON!!! thank you very very very much, Maril, i gladly accept! {lol} this is the welcome note on my cellular phone (Nokia): � � 'AAN� � G� � 'A HOOT'� would some1 please tell me how, if possible, i could change the grave accents on the uppercase letters, specifically � and �, to acute accents (� and �)? bcause that quote's just never going to look right otherwise {frown} i don't know how to get the exact letters i need from the keypad. Thursday, March 28, 2002 Posted 10:41 by Del C from See Ya in the Woods! posted 03-28-2002 01:57 AM by the fabulous Eme at the Sirius thread of FanForum's HP board: See ya in the Woods! part: i still don't have a clue In this eppy, we find out Del's mystery man! Legolas: My keen elvish eyes see that there is a couple ahead of us.. Sirius: Could that be Del and... Strider: ...her mystery man... Kagami: Okay, now we need a plan, how do we find out who he is? Anla: Well, maybe we could split and circle them? Strider: That might be a good idea.. Eme: but how do we split up? Girls and boys? Anla: I think it's a good idea. Kagami? Kagami: Me too. L,Si,St: Okayyy...but are you sure you want it like this? These Woods might be full of dangerous beasts..you need strong men to protect you. Eme: Oh please, let's just go and find out who he is. :Suddenly: Del: Hi guys! Nice to see you in these Woods too. Oh and here's my man, Haldir Others: Hi, nice to meet you. How did you spot us? Haldir: You were arguing so loud, we could have shot you in the dark. Others: That's just such an old joke L,Si,St: Okay, but girls, back to business E,K,A: Oh yes! Del and Haldir, see ya later...in the Woods! D,H: Yes we will thank you for that lovely story, Eme! visual of my guy: the one on the right is when he's off duty from being March-Warden of Lorien, and going by the name Craig Parker. ;) Posted 03:21 by Del C for Lucy, who returneth from the hills without ISP :D the screencaps aren't great, i know. {sigh} and they're Iancentric. (i watched Life as a House primarily because of Ian Somerhalder. but maybe i'll do some Haydencentric 'caps later...) anyway i got a bit of a slashy vibe off of these two, especially in that shower scene. Hayden likes to shower in this movie. i was half expecting Ian to get into the shower with him. both are very yummy boys. {eyebrow waggle} i was looking at my AIM buddy list window and i saw that Maria & Jaime are both online. they must be having one of their very interesting conversations. :) Wednesday, March 27, 2002 Posted 00:58 by Del C a manip by me (am also known as Gl�owyn) and my "lil" brother who says to call him Xander (that's not what we call him, heheheheheh...) first of a planned series of nine, one for each member of the Fellowship. we've already completed Boromir and Aragorn, and Gimli's just waiting for the text we're gonna slap onto his picture. i am open to suggestions for that, btw. anyway, the Legolas manip is my favorite so far bcause of the lovely poem by Emily Dickinson that i found for him. it's so apropos; Legolas fans at FanForum are called his Arrows, and i'm Arrow #125. i think my bro did a great job with that background effect too. we have a deal that first we'll make all the pics aside from Pippin, bcause he thinks i'd give up on the project once i have my Legolas and Pippin piccies. he could be right about that {lol!} speaking of The Pipster... I got Pippin and you didn't! Tuesday, March 26, 2002 Posted 01:41 by Del C music. one of my very favorite things in the world, but i haven't had much to say about it here for awhile...i still haven't found those lyrics with guitar chords for Latel. better get to work on that... It's official! wooohooo! coolness personified, redhead extraordinaire Shirley Manson rox my world. truly. aaand...break open the champagne! Radiohead frontman, who also seems to be a redhead in the picture above. hmmm... bcause of Jaime i was listening to Sublime yesterday. specifically "Caress Me Down" -- way groovay. but my favorite Sublime song is still "Santeria" mostly bcause Frank does a kick-ass cover of it. {singing: Daddy's got a new .45!!!} Monday, March 25, 2002 Posted 08:51 by Del C i test well, don'tcha know... it took me a few tries, but this is me, i know it... heheheheheh... Which HP Kid Are You? Posted 01:00 by Del C rented Little Voice yesterday. Ewan's *so* sweet that i envied his pigeons, and i adore Jane Horrocks, who has a phenomenal voice and whom i believe is a cross between mah gels (that's gels with a hard g, k?) Cate Blanchett and Alyson Hannigan. so. i'm on a British movie kick now. i want to see Oliver! again. and Bridget Jones. and The Shipping News. o.k., so that one's not British. but it does have Dame Judi in it. Cate too. and the other Kate i worship, Katherine Moennig. I Love Lucy. she signed my guestbook. yes, Luce, Death and i would be good together. but no, you may not have Ron. he belongs to all his Ron-hos. i've linked to Maria's LiveJournal. it seems only fair, since i got the HP personality test and the snack quiz from reading it. :) Saturday, March 23, 2002 Posted 18:34 by Del C just remembered one of the snazziest quiz thingies i ever found. The Discworld Celebrity Matchmaker! apparently the guy who would suit me best is DEATH. Clearly you could take your pick of mortal lovers - but why compromise, when the Ultimate Gentleman is single? Of all the people of the Discworld, Death is the most human. Patient, honest, fearless and unceasingly striving to do better, you can be sure that, when you most need him, and however busy he is, Death will always be there... And consider the perks! Unlimited air miles. As much time as you want. And nobody, but nobody, is going to push in front of you. You can even take him home and introduce him to the parents, safe in the knowledge that they won't bat an eye. and here i was gunning for some1 like...oh...say, Ponder Stibbons. {grin} Posted 01:30 by Del C i miss Vhing, who used to make me coffee and bite the outside of my upper arm at odd and inconvenient moments. sure, my lil sister bites my arm too, but it's just not the same. plus, my sister doesn't insist on making me coffee. although she prolly would if i asked... in any case, i miss Vhing, we haven't talked in awhile. i tried biting my sister's arm last night. it's fun. now i understand why they like doing it. Aafro Man Ziegod left a review of my D/G fic Damned at ff.net! Aafro. Man. Ziegod!!! of whom i am a hardcore fan! wooohooo!!! now if only i could actually get around to writing some more of that fic... {sigh} and speaking of fanfic deities, i've added a link to badwithtitles, co-blogged by the waaay cool & artistic Jamester, and Manu, who wrote When Words Aren't Enough, one of my favorite R/H fics of all time. :) dang! i just remembered that last night Latel SMSed me that she had premiere tickets to Ice Age. but i'd already arrived home and couldn't very well go all the way back to the city. argh. i hate it when that happens. well...maybe next time. here's hoping she also gets premiere tickets to oh, i dunno...The Time Machine or The Count of Monte Cristo, maybe. Guy Pearce...Jim Caviezel...Richard Harris... :D this morning it was a lil cold & rainy so i wore my fatigue-green anorak-type jacket that makes me feel like i'm a member of the rock band Oasis. possibly one of the Gallaghers. the plaid flannel lining that shows at the collar & cuffs detracts from the whole army-grungy "don't-mess-with-me-i'm-a-substance-abusing-git-with-an-attitude-problem" effect that i was trying for, though. {snicker} Friday, March 22, 2002 Posted 07:27 by Del C today let's talk fanfiction. these days i mostly read fanfic about HP (now where have we heard that before? hmmm...) and anime, particularly Ranma Nibun no Ichi or as i used to say when i didn't know any better, Ranma ½, and Tenkuu no Escaflowne. there oughta be more Ryoga x Ukyo fics! and Mousse fics. and Dryden fics. and Eries fics. which reminds me, i should go check on my Favorites... anyway, also on my fanfic wish list, a fic about my favorite Starship Trooper from Roughnecks, Carl Jenkins. i lurve him. and i'd lurve it even more if the fic was Carl/Dizzy. hoooyah! i could also do with a good Space: Above & Beyond fic about Cooper Hawkes and Shane Vansen, not necessarily romance, but i do 'ship those 2. i found some SAAB fics awhile back, but they were mostly slash and i didn't dig them much. {shrug} perhaps i should go looking again... Lucy's changed her template to Sandbox at Night, like mine. for a moment i considered changing mine too, but i decided it'd be too much work to do over everything again. yes, i'm a lazy git. anyway i kind of like the idea of our blogs being like twins. :) Wednesday, March 20, 2002 Posted 02:40 by Del C memo to self... Leorio height: 193cm (over 6'! mah kinda man!) weight: 85kg blood type: O (same as me) birthday: 3rd of March i found this out too late, so i'll just declare March as Leorio Month in Delirium Country. happy Leorio Month, ya sezzy beast! {lol} i was missing him terribly, and i'm ever so glad that he's back in Hunter X Hunter now, with Gon & Killua at that bazaar-casbah-type place. he can rock my casbah anytime, heheheheheh... Monday, March 18, 2002 Posted 02:03 by Del C Lucy says i'm lonely. hmmm...i don't think i am. not when i've got my Ron & Hermione to keep me company! {lol} i don't like DoublestufsTM. Could the Nabisco elves please just give me *No*stufs? i much prefer the cookies to the super-sugary filling. or they could give me a Ron to lick the filling off for me so i can have just the cookies. oh yeah...now there's a plan. {smirk} Saturday, March 16, 2002 Posted 03:17 by Del C "You can call me Del--it's not my name but it'll do" --me, shamelessly ripping off a line from Dashiell Hammett's Secret Agent X-9 Friday, March 15, 2002 Posted 07:57 by Del C 'waiii! meet my Neopet, Jabberwookiee the Wocky. cute, ya? my Wocky and i live in Delirium Country. it's a lot like Marlboro Country, only there's no smoking, and the scenery's a bit weirder. but still pretty. pretty weird for sure. i dunno... Delirium Country is adjacent to Dream Country. you won't get that lame joke of mine unless you read Neil Gaiman's Sandman series. Posted 02:31 by Del C lalalalala... doesn't it just *bite* when you can't think of anything to say? oh well, my only recourse in times like this is to think of that old adage: "it is better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak and remove all doubt." so. i added a few links on the left. oh, and a very very happy 19th birthday to Sean Biggerstaff, or, as i like to call him, Captain Ollie Wood. {lol} factoid of the day: March 15, known as the Ides of March, is also the day Julius Caesar got stabbed to death at the Senate. aaand... O. M. G!!! it's also Mark McGrath's birthday today! on this blessed day in 1968, my Markie's mother brought him into the world... :) Thursday, March 14, 2002 Posted 02:31 by Del C urg. i have been guilted into actually posting something on my blog, bcause i have been neglecting it shamefully. bad me. so. i said something before about being a tremendous 'shipper. i still am, maybe more so than ever. My 'Shipping News: Hogwarts - R/H, D/G, H/Hed(A), O/K Stars' Hollow - L/L, D/R/T Rawley - J/H, B/W, J/R The Creek - P/J Roswell - M/I, K/T whoah! look, i'm Ron! happy happy joy joy!
