ICON MEME

Via mscongeniality:

DIRECTIONS:

• reply to this post with the word MEME and I will pick six of your icons.
  
• make a post (including this info) and talk about the icons I chose.
  
• other people can then comment to you and make their own posts.
  
• this will create a never ending cycle of icon glee.

( The icons mscongeniality picked for me )

Won't guarantee I'll get to actually picking icons for everyone, but I'll try to get to you!

Kanzashi pics!

Reeeeally nice pics, this time! I found a tutorial online on how to make a cheeeap light tent to photograph small items, and although I didn't have a desk lamp quite strong enough for the best results, Photoshop filled in the rest. :)

xxxHolic: AnotherHolic

Amazon saw fit to drop the xxxHolic novel at my door today. It's hardback and very nice to hold. And on page 9, there's a place where whoever was dropping in a part of the footnote managed to accidentally hit a keypad or something which moved the cursor elsewhere. XD

The word thus produced is "paiyukimir", which should be "pair". The footnote is about yukimi daifuku, ice cream wrapped in mochi. A mistake *I* commonly make, which makes me feel indulgent towards it. Althougn it underlines the idea that while spellchecks aren't a substitute for copy editing, a good once-over with one near the end might be a good idea.
