Once upon a time... is now.

After that harrowing exam, it was a pleasure to go visit with ashfae, and randomchris, with the extra bonus of fyrie's prescence. We had a lovely dinner, with copious amounts of sugar cookies and icing (and sprinkles!) for desert while watching miscellaneous episodes of Iron Chef. This was followed by good conversation that was continued well into the night by Fyre and I. I haven't had such an in depth SW's conversation in ages *L*

We had a very leisurely morning which was filled with nostalgia for me. I had a crumpet for breakfast, read Ella Enchanted in bed (not that I've read it before, but it was the sort of thing I did read in bed when I was eight) and had peanut butter and jelly for lunch. In the afternoon, Fyre, Ashfae and I went to see Kingdom of Heaven about which I will just say a few things ( This isn't really all that spoilerly, but what the hey )

Ashfae mysteriously ended up following me home. I think it was because I promised her chinese takeaway;) In the process, I may have, sort of, addicted her to Doctor Who - or at least Doctor Who in the form of Tom Baker. Cause, really, there is no way any Uric the Oddball fan can resist the 4th Doctor *eg* And if I got to watch Dr. Who in the bargain? Well, what's wrong with that? Have also fueled her budding BSG obsession. I'm mean, aren't I?;)

Icon Tutorial

A couple of people have requested an icon tutorial from me at this point. I picked a rather complex icon just to provide something different than your average tutorial out there (and because uiggu wanted to know how I did part of it.)

I use a huge range of methods on all my icons depending on what effect I'm going for, so this is just one of many things. If anyone would like to know how I did a specific icon or effect on my website, feel free to ask. Most of the time, I might even remember how I did it;)
