Dang. I hate it when I have fic bookmarked/in LJ memories and it disappears. Does anyone have a still valid link for Telanu's "No Windows", or has it saved on their computer? It's a LotR AU in which Gandalf did take the ring when Frodo offered it to him... it's very well written in a very dark and creepy way.
As for my recent mood theme woes, I had an epiphany for "restless", but have still been unable to come up with anything for
full
productive
tired
In the latter case, the problem is that the moods include "exhausted" and "sleepy" and "groggy" and whatnot in a similar vein, so it gets difficult to find something that doesn't just look the same. And I'd have liked to use something from Saruman's furnaces for "productive", but nothing worked at 100x60px size. Meh. Hopefully I'll find something... soon! I want to finally start using this mood theme!
Oh, speaking of productive: Today I hung the two LotR teaser posters of Frodo with the ring in his hand in my living room, which I had finally gotten around to get framed last week. They look gorgeous in their thinly-black-and-gold-striped frames! Now I just have to enlarge and frame my NZ photo (the full version of the one I'm using as one of my LJ header pics) to complete the trio of landscape photos above them. Some more posters to get framed, but they'll have to wait, since even simple film poster sized frames are expensive.
And spring finally seems to have arrived... at least for Easter! It's wonderful finally being able to leave the balcony door open all day (okay, afternoon - it's not like I often get up before noon on my days off) and to curl up in my hammock seat in the winter garden with a book, enveloped by sunshine and the sweet fragrance of the jasmine blooms. Now I just pray that this time, spring will stay for good!
