And yet another important post made on a deserted Sunday. Will I ever learn? :p

So! Not a huge fan of redirecting everyone to my personal journal (hello, this is my personal journal, you can look around the raaaare public entries, snoop in the tagsexcept no since the interesting ones are friends only, take a seat, sip some champagne), but I haven't found any clean, reliable poll application for FB, so...there it is.

I need to find a name for my new journal, which will host all my graphics/icons/layouts and whatnot. Since I intend to put it on my résumé, it must be poetic/silly but not too poetic/silly. My old icon journal was called "see_legolas_run" (old joke between me and my BFF) -- do I need to mention this is a no-go for the new one?

And as you should know by now, I'm notorious for not being able to reach a decision on my own. So I'm enlisting your help! The list is long, which just proves how desperate I am. As always, most of these words are taken from Emily Dickinson poems, because she's just the most wonderful source of inspiration that ever was. ♥

Sometimes the name might not be "quite it", so you're most welcome to offer variants, would it be just a change in the underscoring. Please, all FB people, do at least leave your name in the box, so I can know who voted.

Poll Adventurers of the lost blog name, part I

The most infuriating thing is that I know exactly what kind of image I want the name to carry, but I can't seem to put it into words. You know those dancing specks of glittering dust you can see in a ray of sunlight in a old dusty room? That's exactly how I feel about my graphics. That kind of ethereal nostalgia. My graphics are akin to virtual scrapbooking (totally ugly for a blog name, don't think I didn't think about it), pinning feelings on a page, but no title seems to encompass that. If any of you, because a lot of you are wonderful poets, has an idea, an inkling, the beginning of a thought....it would be wonderful. If I put this name on my résumé, it's a name that will have to endure for some time, maybe forever. I can't just eeny-mini-miny-mo it.

So far the most inspiring choice for me is the one with framed feelings, except the name doesn't work. Right image, wrong name, ARGH!!! *tears hair out*
