dear firefox:
i'm sorry, darlin', but i think our time together has come to an end. it's not you, it's me and my old bf safari, who apparently went away and found himself and is now back and really has his shit together this time, so i'm gonna give it a shot.
signed,

and in conclusion, a meme - from

1. My username is _____ because ____.
2. My journal is titled ____ because ____.
3. My subtitle is ____ because ____.
4. My friends page is called ____ because ____.
5. My default userpic is ____ because ____.
1. my username is enkeli because once upon a time on the internet someone decided that i should have a handle that was gender neutral. given that english speakers aren't really exposed to finnish a whole heck of a lot (aside from nokia - ha), it mostly worked. where it didn't work was the finnish MUD we used to hang out at.
i still like to think that those guys were saying gentlemanly sorts of things to me in finnish.
anyway, the username stuck - besides the fact that i really like it, it also reminds me of this little story every time i use it. i always thought it was very sweet.
2. my journal is titled "sauntering vaguely downwards" because enkeli means angel in finnish and so i thought it appropriate to borrow from good omens.
3. my subtitle is "the crying, the laugh, the cuddle, the smashing..." because
this book this the funniest book on the entire planet NAY THE SOLAR SYSTEM. srsly, i picked up a promo sampler of the book from comic-con a few years back and could not stop laughing. and would, in fact, burst into laughter at random times throughout the weekend just thinking of it. the quote is taken from the back cover which i've quoted in full below:
the touching memoir of the world's favorite fringe hominid:
listen, i tired of tabloid distoring things about bigfoot. those jackal have try for years to devour me and slander good name. i write this to set record straight once and for all.
maybe also cathartic value.
for money too.
so if you like to hear about bigfoot from bigfoot this bigfoot book for you. come share the crying, the laugh, the cuddle, the smashing. first you accept me, then you love me.
4. my friends page is called "apocalyptic horsepersons" because it's important to be pc and not all bringers of the apocalypse are men. if neil's taught us nothing, he's taught us that! besides, if i'm ending the world, i couldn't think of a better bunch of folks to help me out. (no fighting over who gets to ride the horses, though.)
5. my default user pic is this random photo i found via google image search when i was making this journal. a little girl in a tiara and angel wings - i mean, c'mon.
