My New Looks...

Mar 29, 2009 20:20

My new look on Live Journal is courtesy of a birthday gift from my fantastic beta deluxe, Mercurychkita, who was kind enough to design it and make it happen for me. I love it.

And, also in honor of my birthday, my father paid a woman to shear me this week--because I was so shaggy he no longer recognized me. And that's shaggy. Now I have my ( Read more... )

Oooh, it looks lovely! (I'm referring to the layout, since I can see it, though I'm sure the hairstyle is lovely too.)

I really like how this comment message box has a pretty pattern. And the color scheme is very pleasing. I'm sure it'll make the next chapter of "It's All Relative" or the next self-referential, satirical crackfic, or the next ridiculously insightful one-shot look absolutely fantastic. Not that I'm hinting. That would be tacky!

I'm so glad you like it. I adore it. Mercury was kind enough to take my fiendish love for green into account. As far as hinting, go ahead and it wouldn't be tacky. Good Lord, but it's time for an update. I'm finishing up IAR 20 (which is blossoming like a radiated sunflower) so that I can write a PWP. I'm so tired of plots! lol

Thanks again, dear.

Wow, that banner is many kinds of hot, and the layout is really great. Good jobe Merc!! I don't know if I'm trusting the whole 'bob' thing and you know why. I guess I will have to take it on faith that you DO in fact have a bob, you DON'T have buck teeth, you AREN'T a little phillepeano man and that you ARE smokin' hot and just plain ol' perfect. That's just how I roll.

I really hope your birthday was all kinds of great!

I love the banner, too.

Mmmmm. We should go item by item.

1. My mother and father (who diapered me) assured me that I was a girl as a wee child and no one's said differently since. My penis-negative status tends to lend credence to the theory and I've also never had a gynecologist have to break 'some rather odd news' to me. 2. My teeth aren't perfect, but I do not a pronounced overbite.
3. As neither of my parents looked/look remotely Filipino, I never got the impression I was, either. I feel sure my best friend in high school, who was Filipino, might have mentioned it.
4. Thank you for the compliment but my imperfections are so numerous they alarm me and only I'm smokin' hot to exactly one person these days, which is all I actually need.

Thanks for your part in making my birthday so wonderful, J.

Okay, okay...I'll give you the the first three points. BUT, the fourth point I take exception to. Everyone has imperfections, but it is still fun to joke...sometimes I will tell my sister to call me Mary (Poppins, def. NOT Jesus' mama). Now, since I have never seen you I can't say with any degree of certainty that you are smokin' hot, physically, but your mind and your personality? TOTALLY HOT! And yay for your having that one person that finds you smokin' hot these days, isn't that great?

I'm glad that I was able to make your birthday even a little bit better.

Ooh, this is nice! The colours make me think of mint icecream.....that's a good thing! =)

I find that haircuts are always better when someone else pays for them. I got shorn on the weekend and since I paid for it, I don't like it *sigh* But I'm sure yours looks great!

Also, like chainofclovers, I shan't hint about 'It's All Relative' or anything....nope, definitely won't hint ;)

Ooh, Sherlock, mint ice cream! That is a good thing. Unfortunately, the one friend of mine who is most sensitive to my hair growing past all reason now lives in NYC. She's paid for my hair cut (and color) twice, just so she didn't have to look at it. This was, I do realize, a form of extortion on my part but if you knew her, I promise you'd say, 'extort away!'

As I told CoC, I'm not above hints. I'm giving them to myself daily. In fact, Mercury, who NEVER hints, gave me a gentle and oh so subtle IM poke in the ribs last night. It's growing and coming along. I'll probably have to prune my ambitions for it into something manageable.

Thanks Sherlock.

Aww, I'm just glad you like it. Love you too, babes, and happy birthday.

And if anyone notices anything weird about the formatting, let me know and I'll fix it!

You poor thing. I think I've told you 500 times how much I love it, but here's the 501st. Thank you so much for being the deluxe LLOL that you are to me.

I know, right? I hate it when you can't find someone to cut your hair. In Atlanta, I had perfection, then he moved, and I had semi-perfection. When I moved, I found a butcher grade stylist. I've moved on to just above butcher grade. Sigh. I feel for you--and thanks again for your birthday wishes. I had a great day. Thanks, sweetie.
