01 → If you want me to pick six of your icons, ask in this post.
02 → Make a post (including the meme info) and talk about the icons I chose.
03 → Other people can then comment to you and make their own posts.
04 → This will create a never-ending cycle of icon squee.

Venture Bros - ILU BROCK :D

So now I have to talk about this, right? XD Uh. Well, firstly, I love Venture Bros. I don't know why, it's not maybe the usual sort of show I love, but I LOVE IT. And I do love Brock, because, come on. How can you not love Brock? XD So I just thought this icon was the cutest thing ever, with Dean being all... Dean (cling! :D) and Brock just being cool with it. Because he's really a big softie at heart - at least for his boys.


Minutemen - OMG ALIENS

I admit, the first time I saw Minutemen I caught it from the middle, and I was confused and not that impressed. Then at some point I caught it from the beginning, and I realized my mistake! It was really a pretty good movie, and it has Nicholas Braun in it so HOW CAN YOU GO WRONG? Anyway, I thought this was a pretty badass picture of them all LOOKIN LIKE ALIENS. So there. :D;


Lewis - Kool-Aid!

Well, you all likely know my love of Meet the Robinsons by now. (Man, I haven't seen it in a while; I should remedy that.) And Lewis is soooo cute. He's, like, the BEST KID EVER. And I have no idea why we thought the Barium Cobalt Einstein Kool-Aid line was so funny (other than, well, it was!), but we did. So there you have it. XD


Perry the Platypus!

Perry: Coolest. Pet. Ever. I mean, really, how can you argue? He's not only a platypus, he's a secret agent. With an evil nemesis. Named Dr. Doofenshmirtz. Who used to act as his family's lawn gnome (the nemesis, not Perry). Suffice to say, Perry IS a semi-aquatic egg-laying mammal of action. And it is fabulous.


For Sale :D

So waaaaay back when, in high school (sob), I had this really COOL page-a-day space calendar. And I totally remember this picture being on it! And I thought it was hilarious. Because astronauts, for all they are badass, are also clearly dorky. XD And so at some point after I got a LJ, I went looking for that picture again because I thought it'd make a great icon. And, amazingly enough, I found it! I have no idea what this guy is selling, but I THINK I WANT IT. XD


Merlin - Pudsey in your face!

This icon combines two cute things: Merlin's ears and a teddy bear! Okay, no, really - there's this yearly(?) charity drive for Children In Need in England for which the bear, Pudsey, is the mascot. And sometimes TV shows do little few-minute-long skits for them. And Merlin did one and it was fabulous~ Plus they had all these cute promo pix, so I nabbed this one and decided it would make a good icon. I have not been disappointed. :D

... wow. I sure do have boring icon names. D:



Right! So~ Weekend was relatively busy - had some work to get done, but thankfully not too much. I also vacuumed (yay!) and ran some errands - now I have Sledge's book (which I will start AFTER I've seen at least the next episode of The Pacific) and a frame for an incoming poster, which I'm hoping will arrive soon. We also gathered on Saturday night to catch up on Doctor Who - I am really, really liking this new season. I admit I didn't have high hopes, but the bar? The one that was way down by my ankles? Has been shattered. I really like the new Doctor, and I really, really like Amy. And so far the plots have been decently interesting, and... yeah. Good stuff. :Db I APPROVE.

Nathan had not seen Chronicles of Narnia (either of them!), so we remedied the first part last night before The Pacific, which was again better than I expected. Basilone's not my favorite character, and I'd seen the whole Flags Of Our Fathers business, so I really like where they went with the story instead. (And you know, I always feel kind of weird, saying stuff like that when it's a historical miniseries. But all the same, there's still a way you tell the story, and now that I've read Leckie's book I can also say that I like the way they told that story, and changed just a few things to make it better for the screen while not actually changing the facts and wow, no one wants to hear me ramble about this, do you?).

And then I actually got up today (yay!), though I STILL had to wait half an hour for the bus. But at least since I got up early I managed to get in at a decent time, and the figures I need for my meeting at two are done! Woo~ I'm going to spend the rest of the day writing (the thesis ;D) and looking for a paper to present tomorrow at extragalactic-ph. I dragged the laptop all the way here today, I'm going to use it, darn it! Plus my advisor is gone for the rest of the week, which in my head gives me license to goof off but in reality doesn't. XD Hopefully the proper one of those two will win the mental battle.

In any case, speaking of icons and Narnia, HAVE A PETER ICON. Because. PETER. <3

BUT before I go, a very Happy Birthday to sweetkaiser, just in case you happen to see this!
