The couch one? That would be one of nomorecasualty
s Ryan and Kirsten (of The OC) icons. Heh. And hey, Gilmore Girls! I need to get myself some GG icons.

[julester1.livejournal.com]

Heee. US TV confuses me in general - with their sweeps and hiatuses and everything.

Ha! He plays America Fererra's dad - and it's all girly angst, coming of age - you know the drill. But Brad is still gorgeous, and well, he wears tennis shorts. Ha, just to grab your attention :P

Heeeeeeeeeeee!! Yes. 'Kay, so have to watch again now. Along with everything else.

Patience?? What does that word even mean in relation to fangirling? *cannot comprehend*

[julester1.livejournal.com]

You so are! Enablers enabling each other is awesome. And slightly scary.

Heh, I know it. We have a sad d/l limit that gets sucked up pretty fast. HA!! Classic. *totally going to do it*

Thanks again for uploading! *loves* And hee, I always adore there pop culture jokes on the show. Lost, GA...

Okay, I'll stop. For now. [OMG, John and Jenna compliment each other on how awesome they are in scenes!] Love!

Hee. Priorities, of course! And having lovely friends is always good. Summer school always goes better if you have people to go through it with. I'm sure you'll be more than fine!

[julester1.livejournal.com]

Ah, I can see that now. It's so pretty - the lighting is gorgeous. I am insane about pretty icons. And gah, speaking of insane, I've made your FO post go over 50 comments and do that commenty thing where they summarise. Or whatever you call it. You will SO look popular!

[bertiebob.livejournal.com]

She makes some very nice icons. She's got a whole bunch of Kelly Rowan/187 icons that are just stunning.

WHEE! Over 50! Oh, we'll sooooo trick people into thinking that i'm cool ;)

[bertiebob.livejournal.com]

I don't think Brad could ever be anything but gorgeous. My Studio 60 love is slowly becoming obsessive, because he and Matthew Perry together are 10 different types of cute. Tennis shorts? o_O I'll be renting that tomorrow, then. *blinks*

I'm tempted to run back up to the other house and get it. Lmao. It's such a nice little movie. Actually, now that i'm thinking Meg/Tom i want to watch Sleepless. Heh. It's only nearly midnight, i could totally watch both ;)

Lmao. Patience sucks! It's what is forced upon lowly fangirls who have no money. *pouts* I'm going to go console myself with Casino Night :P

[bertiebob.livejournal.com]

And never-ending ;) Lmao.

My mum was talking today about switching the net at the other house from unlimited cable to one of those sad little 200MB plans. I tried to tell her what a horrible idea that was, but she didn't believe me. *shakes head*

Omg. The typing speed things are sooo addictive!

GA? There was a GA reference?! Lost - that was just so, so funny. I sucked coke up my nose when he said it.

AWE@!N#@#AFAS *smacks you*

I was whining in the car the other day about how close it's going to be with my final result for chem, and i was obviously pretty panicked about it cause my mum was like "you know, it's okay, if you fail you can just repeat it and concentrate more on theatre next year". I was like "...oooh, right. Yes. That's why i'm freaking out. Totally." You know, not the hot boys and the horrible possibility of not getting to spend the summer assing about with them. *cough*

[julester1.livejournal.com]

It's a vicious circle. Neverending. Keeps going round and round. That's what makes it vicious..and a circle/Sports Night geekout.

OMG! That is the sad sad plan we have. *cries*

Hee. Kelly talks about seeing someone on GA with skin cancer to try and cheer up Kevin. Heh.

HA! Yeah, I sort of deserved that. *grins*

*laughs* We don't need to share everything, right?! :P It's love that you do science but also theatre studies. And people think that science and commerce are a strange mix!

[julester1.livejournal.com]

I am waiting for it to air here, but am loving that everyone loves it! And yes, they have the best chemistry, and just love. I am getting incoherent! HA! Shallow always gets me in the end :P

Tell me you got some sleep - have we had this conversation before [has it really only been like 4 days since I first talked to you?]

Heh. Casino Night is my idea of the perfect episode. Seriously. Love. And Jen icon! OMG, we haven't even started on House!Love....

[julester1.livejournal.com]

Hee. But clearly, you are absolutely cool! ♥

[basictheology.livejournal.com]

heeeeyyyyy.
it's me.
i've brought you candy?
well, pretend candy.
also, pretend coffee?
pretend diet coke?
pretend... eyebrows?
love always,
your new friend.

[bertiebob.livejournal.com]

Ooooooh, pretend candy.

Pretend eyebrows, huh? I like it.

Friended, because you seem to share my randomness. And also my love of track pants. One day i plan to take over the world - and i'm going to do it wearing track pants. Because nothing says laid-back-world-domination like a good pair of track pants.

[misunderstood-b.livejournal.com]

have friended you, we seem quite similar *coughobsessivecough*

Though, unlike you, I wear black instead of grey, I'm one of those black and white people full of those moral absolutes :(

I have no life either; I seriously need one. Really.

[bertiebob.livejournal.com]

Hey! Sorry i took so long to add you back, life has been batshit crazy this week.

Haha. *coughnothingwrongwiththatcough*

Well, i do partake in a lot of black-wearing myself. I like grey more, but i probably own more black. Fancy black suit-pants FTW! I envy your moral absolutes, i do. I need to get me some of those.

You know, i think we should all band together, start a support group of some kind ;) Or an LJ community, but then that would probably be slightly counterproductive. *snort*

[camiie.livejournal.com]

Heyoo..

You don't know me at alllll =D

[bertiebob.livejournal.com]

Dude. You crack me up :P I got the email notification of a comment from you and i was like, okay, and went to my latest post and was all *confusion*, so i went back one, and another ... then i finally opened the damn email and was like *doh*

Hee.

Hey, random question: do you know of any good icon-help communities besides icon_tutorial? I feel like making icons tonight, but i can't get the colouring i want. *grumps*

[camiie.livejournal.com]

Teehee.. Arn't you lucky you knowz me! =D

Lolz!! *Doh*!!

Errrrm.. Nope, sowwie.. I just mostly ask like.. Megz and other people.. Aww.. Maybe you should try singing the Rainbow Song to your computer, you know that song? red and yellow and pink and green. purple and orange and blue. i can sing a rainbow, sing a rainbow, sing a rainbow too.. then it might let you have you colors!

Im sure it'll let you! =D

[bertiebob.livejournal.com]

I AM. Kate = lucky. Also? Caffeinated. *bzzz*

Hehehe. The rainbow song wins at music. *sings to computer*

I don't know, it's pretty temperamental...

[thesamerain.livejournal.com]

I just had to say, I love your little spiel here, it cracked me up :) A good thing, sure, but not when my family bugs me why I'm grinning at the computer!!

We sound alike, actually, which can be taken as a good thing or a bad thing, but I'd say good... :P We have a lot of the same fandoms, and I'm undoubtably a tv whore as well, but you won't hear me admitting it to just anyone... Kidding, of course. :D Out of the fandoms you've listed, I love Bones, of course, and I've always liked Grey's Anatomy but even more so since Denny came onto it. Then, along with the rest of the world, cried by eyes out when he died. :( Never watched The Office, Brothers & Sisters (which I don't think has even started here yet), Weeds or Gilmore Girls, but all the others I just love!

But yeah, I', blabbing ;)

Oh, and I adore your Emily/Zooey layout, they're both so gorgeous!

[bertiebob.livejournal.com]

Lol. I know what you mean - i've been watching random Bones clips/interviews on youtube all day and my family is like, what the hell is going on in your room?! *snort*

Hah. Totally a good thing. And my tv whore status is basically my only social hook - if i meet someone and we share a tv-love, i'm good, otherwise i'm literally incapable of making acceptable small talk. I tend to blurt out randomly useless facts and/or mock the general public.

Yay for Grey's Anatomy! I'm going to assume from your mention of Denny that you're watching them on free-to-air, yes? In which case i'll have to be careful what i say - cause i download it as soon as it's available from the US, and i don't think i have any other unspoiled Grey's fans on my flist. I'm going to have to embrace the spoiler-alert ;)

And omg, you totally need to watch The Office. And Weeds! It's just started on free-to-air here, i think. It is AWESOME. And Zooey Deschanel is in it! She's so bizarre, it's hilarious. I so need to make some Zooey-Weeds icons. I don't think Brothers & Sisters has started here yet - we might be getting it next year? I think i read that somewhere. When it does eventually arrive, you should totally watch it. It's full of amazing actors. And it's by a heap of the Alias people. It wins.

Lmao. I think i beat you on the blabbing. I'm slightly drunk. *sporflesnort*

Thank you! I don't think it was a big hit with most of my flist. *shrugs* They're pretty. I love it. It's so rare that i'm actually happy with a layout/header. So, thanks for saying that. *smooshes you*

[twisted-badger.livejournal.com]

hey :)

nice to meet you, thank you for adding me, thining my icons were nice and, seeing my kiwiw status as a good thing :D

you seem very swell indeed, what with using the word WOE. i am very fond of woe. you also have a quote from blackadder on your info, which i'm sure you know but, my point is that i am always very happy when people know the love of that sort of show yes. it is fab and think kate is the best shotening of bob i have ever heard.

there are also many other fab things about you i wanted to mention but i do not want to scare you yet so. hi :D nice to meet you and i look forward to meeting you more yes.

-kelsi

[bertiebob.livejournal.com]

hi! *waves*

Nice to meet you too, you're welcome, your icons are awesome, and kiwi status ftw! :)

Lol. I love the word woe - i was driving my mum home tonight and we were behind a truck whose number plates was 'WOE 237' - i'm not positive about the numbers, but seriously, it was WOE. Lmao. I took a photo, i'll have to post it tomorrow. Blackadder!love! It's such an awesome series, and so often overlooked by people. I like to randomly pimp it ;)

Omg, i dare you to scare me :P

♥

[thesamerain.livejournal.com]

Zooey's in Weeds!? OMG!! I SO have to watch it now!! Is she a regular or only in a few episodes?

But haha, I watch random Bones clips on YouTube too, I reckon I spoiled myself with a few dozen clips before I'd actually seen the episodes, but I couldn't help meself! All those B/B moments couldn't just sit there without me watching them, right!?

I'm the same with the tv whore status, I can be a pretty quiet person in RL, but get me started on my favourite tv shows and you'll never shut me up!

With Grey's, yeah I have been watching it on free-to-air, but I don't mind spoilers in the least - I actually love spoilers if they're good ones. But not if they'd totally screw up my Grey's-viewing!

Not sure about Brothers & Sisters, but I could have sworn I read something about it starting here next year in TV Week... Doesn't it have Calista Flockhart in it? Or am I thinking of someone or something else? But I'll definetely be watching it, now that you've said it's awesome (and the whole made-by-a-bunch-of-the-Alias-people is too cool)!!

[camiie.livejournal.com]

Lol!
Ohh.. It'll work for sure =]

My head is diiiizzy.. I was doing backflips on my trampoline lol =P

[riven-nz.livejournal.com]

oooh add me! i require more random spam on my f list =) - no really, please..
