Sunday, June 30, 2002 Posted 13:22 by Del C oh. my. goddess. DeeDee left me a comment. DeeDee, who wrote Finding Lily, one of my favorite HP fics of all time. who is one of my fanfic deities. who has a site, much-ado.net, which is one of my favorite places on the 'Net, ever. who hosts 2 of my favorite fanlistings. *and* she signed the guestbook. *and* she said something nice about my blog on her blog too. she called me spiffy! i must go reciprocate now. Thel and i talked today. we were incommunicado for awhile and it was all my fault. but finally we're talking again and i'm so relieved our friendship hasn't bn permanently ruined. definitely a more than OK day, i'd be running around screaming my fool head off if it weren't for this pesky sore throat. Posted 02:59 by Del C am chuffed! as of June 28 -- i think -- DeeDee added me to Prince of Ithilien, her fabulous Faramir fanlisting. DeeDee also wrote the equally fabulous R/H fic Finding Lily, which i never get tired of rereading. now i'm joining her �owyn FL too, even though i've just found out i've bn added to the original �owyn FL, Steel Lily, bcause i figure more �owyn love is a very good thing. Saturday, June 29, 2002 Posted 01:49 by Del C continuing in the ol' Tolkien vein... one of my multiple personalities likes to go by the name of Gl�owyn of the Rohirrim. this name i made up for myself whilst -- what a cute Britishism "whilst" is -- playing my Tolkien gamebooks several years ago, waaay before Tolkien bcame fashionable bcause of the movies, and i signed up for a Hotmail addy with this name back in 1998, i think, and still use it in spite of my continual aggravation due to all the gawdawful spam -- that's how attached i am to Gl�owyn. as for the spam, make it stop, pleeease! some1 make it stop!!! barrowdowns.com has a cool Tolkien name generator. when i tried it sometime ago, i decided on the Elvish name Angal�m�wen, Dwarvish Perin Woodenarrow (i like to think it's bcause i'm great friends with the famous archer Legolas Greenleaf -- lol!), Hobbit name Mentha Burrows from Rushy, and Orcish Krumk� the Plunderer (i tried it again today and got different results, but i'm sticking with the ones i got before) Plus, according to the Red Book of Westmarch, in Middle-earth Gl�owyn was a world-famous Valar! ^_^ last night, or perhaps "really early this morning" would be more precise, i officially got listed as #106 at Darkness Unescapable, the utterly gorgeous �owyn/Faramir site -- i even have one of their sweet lil code thingies already up at my "cliques & archives" page bcause recently i've bcome obsessed with getting into fanlistings for all the ppl and stuff i obsess about... @_@ Friday, June 28, 2002 Posted 11:49 by Del C hoooyah!!! i love this woman! Wednesday, June 26, 2002 Posted 11:02 by Del C memo to self: stop by statedreams.cjb.net starting maybe this weekend and see how Siobhan's vacation goes. she is after all, Sidekick #1. i thought i had a random IMer just a little while ago, turns out it was Siobhan going by another sn {vbg} speaking of Sidekicks, i *finally* did some work recently on my R/H shrine red knight scarlet woman. i got another redirector for it (ronandhermione.arecute.com) bcause the former one (ronandhermione.areawesome.net) was supposedly being phased out. but when i tried it, it still worked. odd, that. i liked the old URL better too -- more spunky somehow... Tuesday, June 25, 2002 Posted 20:32 by Del C
spot-on! not the beauty part, that's highly debatable. but 2 out of 3 ain't bad at all! Monday, June 24, 2002 Posted 14:58 by Del C beee-lieve it! ^_^ and that is a *wicked* fanart! i just noticed, he looks very much like Tasuki! btw, that snazzy Sidekick bar animated gif on the left column is by Jessie, fanart goddess extraordinaire. i am particularly smitten with this one particular R/H manip she made, which rox up and down the street and around the corner and for several blocks past that too. oh, and she made me my adorable Joisey avatar too! Saturday, June 22, 2002 Posted 12:30 by Del C i sink to a new low, stealing this test thingy off of a total stranger's lj Luce, so what you're saying is...i am like your pocket calculator bcause i'm crazy and hard to figure out? juuust kidding...what's with that random pocket calculator picture, anyway? it looks like the only pocket it'd fit into would be Hagrid's {lol!} oh, and something wonderful happened this morning. i heard my third version of John's "Your Body Is a Wonderland" on the radio, and it was such a treat -- it was from one of his live gigs and toward the end of it he snuck in a few lines from "Every Little Thing She Does Is Magic": Do I have to tell the story / Of a thousand rainy days since we first met / It's a big enough umbrella / But it's always me that ends up getting wet i felt sort of like he was trying to tell me he's a Sidekick too... {happy happy in-love smilie} Friday, June 21, 2002 Posted 12:54 by Del C Thursday, June 20, 2002 Posted 01:29 by Del C gacked from mah favorite bellydancing Wiccan, Annabella: you're american beauty. you're full of hope and appreciate the beautiful things in life. take the which prettie movie are you? quiz, a product of the American Beauty's a grrreat movie -- i was so happy with this result i had to blog it * right now! * but i'll be sure to try all those other ones later, Annabella :) later...with Jools Holland .... ehhh. no one's going to get that lame-arse joke but me. later...there were more quizzes. from internetjunk.co.uk: singing the Cookie Monster song (in obligatory googly voice): "C is for cookie, that good enough for me ... Cookie cookie cookie start with C!!!" Wednesday, June 19, 2002 Posted 04:00 by Del C it's my "lil" sister's birthday today! happy birthday, my ducky-chickadee-sweetiepie-babydoll!!! your "big" sis lurvs you! update on some new blog links: Subliminy whose blog i happened to stumble upon because of Annabella, and a newly found Sidekick blog, that of dj :) oh, and we have Wei� Kreuz fanart, made with much help from Jill and Xander. it's Yoji actually. Tuesday, June 18, 2002 Posted 15:30 by Del C {sigh} i miiiss yooouuu, Rushi!!! Rushi-pooh, where are yooouuu?! {howl} i also miss updates to HarpinRed & ShellyK's PTL. i hope they've been writing during ff.net's downtime so they'll have a nice fresh new chapter when it gets back to normal... Monday, June 17, 2002 Posted 03:05 by Del C ah-ha! just as i suspected! {g} what kind of a Spider-fan would i be if i didn't post this? fine by me. i kind of liked Harry Osborne and i *definitely* like James Franco {eyebrow waggle} credit for leading me to this quiz thingy goes to Kara's lj. am on a test binge today. Posted 02:33 by Del C Which adult in Harry's life are YOU? Professor McG and Dame Maggie Smith ruuule. more witches. so. after several tries, i am Magrat...oh well, i was hoping for Agnes Nitt. maybe Angua. or even Granny Weatherwax, whom i revere -- i want to be in her coven. but i realize i'm nothing like Granny so Magrat it is. she's not so bad. and her Verence isn't so bad either {lol} Death is a grrreat character. and i do like cats. so {smiley} oh my, i'm *Carrot*, of all ppl! isn't this an interesting development... Friday, June 14, 2002 Posted 07:27 by Del C i'm Rogue again, and i don't mind that i'm untouchable bcause i love her madly. not Goth!Rogue from the Evolution series, although she looks pretty cool. i mean vintage Rogue from the comic books, before they went and Anna Paquin-ized her. not that i dislike Anna either, bcause i think she's lovely too. i'm just more fond of 20something Rogue than teenage Anna type Rogue. she's vulnerable and lonely and messed-up enough already without reverting her to adolescence too! oh the mutant angstyness of it all! Posted 01:35 by Del C update: i now have an lj in addition to my blog and my dj. on the list to the left i've a new link to another Sidekick lj, belonging to the charming Kara. and yes, Annabella, i am decidedly strange for trying to maintain a blog and 2 journals all at the same time. but this isn't Delirium Country for nothing! {lol} i'm prolly going to have to get my long hair cut since i can't take care of it like i really should. which is a shame, bcause i really do want to keep my Hermione hair. and no plans yet to take a photograph of me & Jill posing like in our portrait :) Chels, thanks for the kind comment on the drawing, my sister really wants to know what ppl think of it. Wednesday, June 12, 2002 Posted 06:04 by Del C just a short post to reassure daaahling Rushi that i still love my blog like nobody's business. and to finally post this portrait of myself and my sister my ducky, whom i love too. she drew it CLAMP-style, i'm the one with glasses on. i love our eyelashes, and like to think they actually are that thick ^.^ but my hair may not stay that long for very long now...i'm thinking of getting it cut soon. btw, Luce, you can't keep me from loving John. he's too firmly entrenched in my consciousness now, and besides...we're going to do that duet someday, bwahahahahaaa!!! Monday, June 10, 2002 Posted 08:14 by Del C just had to add this quizzie bcause when i saw Chelsea's result on her blog i was suddenly overcome by a mad urge to take it as well and since i can't comment directly on Chelsea's blog, i'd just like to say here that i'm glad both she and i act like we're 17 :) Posted 01:18 by Del C Kym, if you're reading this, here's my first ever Higgs fanart, the other one's already in my june 4 Slytherin rant. OK, so Will Theakston's not Terence in this pic yet, it's from when he was Roddy Oliver on the BBC's Ghost Hunter, i just Slytherin-ized the pic a bit bcause i am in love with his smile. but over the weekend i did 'caps of the hunky Mr. Higgs, and i may just have another fanart of him soon. i tried taking 'caps of Marcus and one of the other Slytherin Chasers, but they didn't come out too well, so i'll have to try again. i got the Angelina i wanted, and i didn't even have to cheat! {lol} oh, and addendum to my Slytherin Quidditch team rant: their Keeper from the first HP movie was a girl, so the unidentified guy (whom i am tentatively calling Adrian) cannot be the Keeper, Bletchley; this was a casting mistake imho, bcause i firmly believe the Slytherin team is all-male. i took a good long look at the Quidditch match but i didn't see any1 who looked like our mystery man so the mystery continues. Kym mentioned another possible name for Marcus my Overbite Boy, it seems his real name may actually be Jamie Yeates -- and i'd gotten so attached to calling him Scott Fearn too...oh well, i'll have to do more research on this... {sigh} meanwhile i'm still thinking of him as Scott Fearn until i know conclusively otherwise. so there. oh, btw...i caved in and got me a deadjournal last night while blogspot was all wonky and stuff. link is above. and now for my regularly scheduled anime talk... here are the most gorgeous doujinshi scans of Kenshin x Kaoru i saw recently! (my eternal gratitude to the ppl who did violence to their beloved doujinshi just so they could scan these pics) K x K kiss!!! - my all-time favorite! {swoon!} and from Kenshinny's Doujinshi Guide, i am particularly charmed by the K x K kissing in the dojo doorway (awww!!! from a doujinshi with the charming title Violently Happy 2 ^.^ ) and the K x K ear nibble!!! (from before he goes to fight Saitoh) i like ear nibble...{giggle} one more quiz thingy: am pleased with this bcause i like Trinity a lot; she's actually my strongest reason for wanting to see Matrix Reloaded and Matrix Revolutions. Saturday, June 08, 2002 Posted 01:06 by Del C OK, i did some research on the unidentified Slytherin guy with Flint & Malfoy and i think i may have a name: David Holmes, who is credited as Slytherin Chaser Adrian Pucey in PS/SS and reportedly will also be in CoS. i still haven't checked to see if he's in the first movie though, so that's not 100% sure. alternatively, he could be the Keeper, Bletchley. but i prefer Adrian; he looks like an Adrian to me {smiley} and wouldn't it be sort of cool if Millicent Bulstrode joined the Slytherin team? then she'd be their only girl, but you prolly couldn't tell her apart from the guys {snerk!} {sigh} i really should lay off of the coffee... oh -- happy thought coming on: Dred's staying over at my house tonight! {g} Friday, June 07, 2002 Posted 01:54 by Del C 17 I act like I'm 17.
This test was brought to you by Liam - Serving you fresh farce daily. Take it here. sounds about right... {grin} today RoryGilmore1008 told me secret stuff about her Mom: She has held onto her childhood diary over the years as one of her most prized possessions. There is one entry in it. "June 27, 1979: Today I got a diary." She still thinks she may write in it one day. {lol!} that Lorelai, what a card! Luce, i thought i had me a random IMer this morning, turns out it was some1 i already knew, i just didn't recognize the screen name {grin} ai-ya! beautiful Aoshi x Megumi fic: Two Destinies by P. Rico, Soul Mates by Gracey, In Another's Eyes by Sariah DeGidio. Thursday, June 06, 2002 Posted 06:56 by Del C this has been going on for awhile now (actually more like since the first few episodes of Bakuretsu Hunters that i saw months ago) but today i joyfully announce my love of Carrot x Tira with a lovely lovely piccie from MASK - the Carrot Glaces shrine on the right below. awww...'waaaiii!!! and on the Rurouni Kenshin front, i love the idea of Aoshi x Megumi. i used to not like it, preferring Sano x Meg, but recently i was converted, and AxM is one of my official 'ships now, along with Sano x Misao ^_^ Wednesday, June 05, 2002 Posted 07:28 by Del C Luce, i thought snapfish had blocked remote linking from their servers, turns out it was just a bad link that was keeping my Higgs fanart from displaying...{embarrassment} but i set up an MSN community like you said anyway {shrug} Annabella, i hope you can see Terence below now :) and oh yeah, Luce, i saw Norah Jones being interviewed on E! last night -- she is so adorable. i hope i find her Come Away with Me cd so i can put it cozily next to John's Room for Squares when they're not playing. Joiseys ruuule! speaking of John...more of his gorgeousness in bnw photos from mtv.com Tuesday, June 04, 2002 Posted 18:35 by Del C Kuramaaa!!! whatta kitsune! this is good. i'll go see if i can find me a Kurama x Botan pic somewhere... looks like snapfish is no good for posting my pics anymore. got any suggestions, ppl? Posted 04:04 by Del C out of all the great new CoS pics EW.com published, i had to fixate on this 1 {grin} on the left is my Overbite Boy, Marcus Flint. he's Scott Fearn btw, not Will Theakston as the credits from the first movie erroneously state. Will Theakston is Terence Higgs, and a different kind of hotness altogether -- i'll have to post my Higgs fanart later. and that guy behind Malfoy, what a dish! thou must not remain unidentified, o cute Slytherin boy! i wonder if he was in the first movie...better check that on my video later too, heheheheheh... and now i bring you...a rather pixelated, but still cute Terence Higgs. Monday, June 03, 2002 Posted 02:16 by Del C Annabella, i'm not sure what's going on with you and the comments thingy, but rest assured that any problem i see will be taken care of with some judicious editing &/or deletion {huggle!} bunch of quizlets from a very kawaii site: Sunday, June 02, 2002 Posted 17:14 by Del C bcause i'm still feeling somewhat guilty about teasing Ben for the baby name book thing, and to along go with Lucy's trend of discussing names in her blog: i confess that i have plans to name my rhetorical son Ryan James (so i can call him Jamie for short) and my rhetorical daughter Emily Aravis (will also be called Eries). for girls i tend to favor androgynous names like Blaise, Jordan, Hunter, etc. in sort of related news, i know this webpage for Japanizing names and Luce, you can call me Deru {smiley} may i call you Rushi sometimes, just for fun? Saturday, June 01, 2002
Posted 09:40 by Del C today i watched the first three videos of the sh�jo anime To Heart -- i'm not quite sure what the Japanese title is, but the words cute and sweet were invented for this series. anyway, in the second ep was a band called Childish an Hour. Japanese bands have such whimsical names! ^_^ i'm going to go get that article about Japanese band names and be right back. well, here it is: Funky music stuff |
