And we all have so many faces

Thanks to the ingenious mswyrr (and the patient matociquala, who graciously permitted us to use her livejournal as a public forum for icon-making), I now have a new icon! Actually, I have two new icons. Behold quintessential Englishman and all-round easy on the eyes actor Leslie Howard as my favorite fictional detective and one of my all-time favorite characters, Lord Peter Wimsey. I can't imagine there will be much detecting in my online life—the mysteries in my life at the moment are things like, "What is this 'mourning Eros' doing on the reverse of coins from Nikopolis? And how did I let myself get talked into trying to find this out?"—but if I need to piffle disarmingly, at least I have an icon for it now.

"Do you find it easy to get drunk on words?"

"So easy that, to tell the truth, I am seldom perfectly sober. Which accounts for my talking so much."




Placet.
