I dozed inside the mirror

[sovay]

1. My poem "Sheydim-tants" has been accepted by Not One of Us. For everyone who worried about my last post, it has nothing to do with nuns: it is the poem I wrote on the flight back from Vancouver in November and there are demons in it.

2. Have narcissistic picspam. On Monday, we took my mother to see the Chihuly exhibition at the MFA; I remembered to bring the camera this time, so I have several dozen pictures of stained glass (some of which I may post) and then this one, which I took in between mostly unsuccessful shots of the Charles River on the drive home. It's really the fact that the warning legend on the mirror came out that makes it for me.



3. Happy birthday, gaudior! So many more of the same.

Apparently you are closer than you appear.

When I'm on your computer screen, I am.

You have such lovely eyes, Sonya. My unrequieted long-distance nerdtraction to you continues unabated. *sigh*

Now if you'll excuse me, I'm off for further nunsploits.

I married the only woman lovelier I could find.

*hands you a slice of nun*

Well played, sir. Well played.

(Thank you.)

Dude, you look rather well.

Are you driving the automobile? God Jesus. Better you than me. Better you than me!

[sovay]

Are you driving the automobile?

Good God, no! That's the passenger side. I'm not completely insane.

Well, I forgot it was a reflection in a lens, you see. Also, I think you can drive, so it was a natural fear.

That would make a great LJ icon, except that I know, if you shrank it down, the letters on the wing mirror would become invisible. Perhaps an icon of just your eyes, camera, and fingers, with a pseudo-wing-mirror-message across the bottom.

Hm. I really need to learn how to use Photoshop.

I'm not sure I'm quite narcissistic enough to use an icon of myself, but thank you!

It took me a long time to realise that within the norms of LJ this makes perfect sense (hence my default icon) - and I do love the mirror picture.

This is me making my "Look! Nice sharp teeth nice nice!" face.

*eyerolls at you* It is a striking picture. You're not topless, so I say go for it.

Grin and thank you lots! And congrats on the poem, and I quite like the picture (it's good to see you!)

Thank you!

You should post a picture of yourself; I haven't seen you with a Texas tan.

But... on the terrifying intenets! What if someone pierces my incredibly closely-kept secret identity, and discovers who I am? Woe!

(I'll see what I can find... Grin.)

Excellent!

And a wonderful photo.

[sovay]

Excellent!

I am quite pleased.

And a wonderful photo.

Thank you!

That's a fabulous shot!

I must see the Chihuly glass before it vanishes.

Happy birthday, gaudior!

That's a fabulous shot!

Thank you. It seemed worth trying.

I must see the Chihuly glass before it vanishes.

It runs into August.

[ericmarin.livejournal.com]

Congratulations!

(And that's a very cool shot.)

[sovay]

Congratulations!

On both counts, thank you!

[ap-aelfwine.livejournal.com]

Congratulations! And nice shot!
