Okay, I've asked and begged and pleaded for some hints on where people find their wonderful icons, and then I gave up and decided -- hey, I can google with the best of 'em. So I found me some icons! This one is courtesy of
edithgeraldine. It feels a little weird, putting up a famous picture of some pretty lady to represent me -- but I guess it's not any more weird than being represented by a not-yet-of-age mischievous hobbit lad, either, LOL.
Today I was completely bored at work, and so spent my time reviewing my entire LiveJournal from its inception almost exactly two years ago (June 3, 2002). And I have to say, I was a little blown away. I have never, ever, in my life successfully maintained any written record of my doings and thoughts -- just the occasional angst-ridden entry when I've been very, very down. Now after two years of entries I must confess -- I am feeling rather proud of myself. I've not written especially well or cleverly, but there is... a great deal of my life and my thoughts encompassed here. And I only made it through 2002! Guess I'll carry on, then. I keep finding posts I'm fond of and adding them to my memories list -- it's getting huge! *smile* And best of all, I'm reminded over and over again of the love and warmth and caring I find here.
shiredancer *smooches* to y'all!

Date: July 3rd, 2004 11:01 am (UTC)And for icons, there's a journal called Aesthetic Icons here, with lots of people posting lovely pictures that anybody can take. They ask for comments and credit usually, although some don't even require credit in the keywords.
Next? I have to figure out how to make LJ allow me more than 15 icons! Guess that means paying more, or something...
