~~scattered. some recs.
Jan. 12th, 2003 08:56 pmit's hard to always make sense. i just get words coming to me, flickering. batting. raining. sweeping. draining. lying. jeering. sapping. keeping. rowing. saying. bleary. fume. dread. fie. sea. dare. plume. sane. breath. fear. slam. perch. sleet. frost. bent. seer. rose. smite.
and now i get self-conscious. i doodled last night, feeling pretty good about myself and silvia's buffy songvid dancing in my brain, still. but really, so easy to appreciate things outside yourself. so much easier to love things when they're not you and yet they are. that's what good art is. it shows you things you never knew you were, because you recognize them. kinship. suddenly you understand. it all makes a little bit more sense. existence, and maybe not in general, just yours in particular.
anyway, meant to have hp art recs. haven't done those in a while.
mostly just
rabby's site, and this beautiful sketch of james with roses. *sigh* and hermione, even though she doesn't quite look like canon!hermione, she's so well-drawn i forgive her.
and silvia wrote more cute yumminess. wah, brain not working well, haven't eaten yet today. ehehehe. well, i forget these things. anyway. here and here. wah. words like pretty river stones and champagne ice melting on your tongue and making you a tiny bit tipsy and the world swirls in sparkly pastel. guh, can't express my loff. but you know. yes.
also, found neil's online store and belatedly realized i never did get what i wanted for christmas after all. (scanner, nothing!)
they have a new unpublished neil story on that site~! `cinnamon'. yummy. scrummy. neil. mmmm.
most of you probably don't know about tim hunter. but. he's from neil's `books of magic' and i adore him (i thought) much more than harry. he's like, what harry could be if he were actually cool and witty and brilliant and the most powerful wizard in the world, yet still a dorky british boy with glasses and a hopeless crush on a girl and dead parents and too many responsibilities. gah. i -love- tim. but. seeing this action figure of him-- you'd think i'd really want it. blech. i hate it. this is grown-up!tim, with the stupid goatee and the stupid stupid. stupid.
*pouts* he's become majorly uncool. my harry plushie beats him hands down, and that's sad. on the bright side, i'm lusting heavily for the delirium action figure. mmm. and the plushie, gahd help me. am resisting the dream & daniel plushies. i mean, really. it's a stretch to say that's dream & daniel. still, though. wah! plushies! *giggles* am dork.

Date: 2003-01-13 08:19 pm (UTC)i'm kind of fond of it, myself. there's just something about ... a certain sort of picture-- emotional, female-- that i tend to put more of myself into than a random doodle of draco, for instance.
but it's still amazing that you can tell ^^ as well as being happy you looked at all. sometimes i think people only read me for the hp rants ><;;
*giggles* though that's semi-paranoid of me, i guess. but still, so many people, one wonders why they're here. i think i've been less... myself lately, with all the audience, but since i've noticed, i figured what the heck, if it's too much "me" for them they could always leave ~:)
