it tastes like sadness, it tastes like batteries

I finally got new icons. I have a new default icon, even! \o/ Sorry nameless dude, you have been replaced by Mikeyway, who is far superior and also sunnier in this picture. ....I just want all this rain to be over and for the sun to come back, please.

Tumblr, as it is wont to do, tells the truth:

This new default already feels like it's been here for forever. I've always liked when people's default icons have some sort of connection to their usernames (so in this case Mikey's red jacket--> redscarfe) cause it makes it easier to identify and remember them.

IDK it makes sense to me. In the same way that I like certain words not for how they sound but how they look when written- some words are just aesthetically more attractive. That's normal, right? Personally, I like words that are balanced (in terms of the placement of tall letters like t, f, h, and letters that drop down like g, p and y) and I like words that have round letters like a, e, s, d. Actually, that explains why I liked 'redscarfe' so much when I made this LJ. I could have tried to explain this in the voice meme I did yesterday but I suspect it would have been even more boring in spoken form, so.

I've been listening to this song on repeat because I'm bored and feeling sad. Also it's a cute song. Vegemite (The Black Death) by Amanda Palmer

Oh, and I bought tickets to the MCR show at the Hordern Pavilion for me and my sister! \o/ But I MUST be in some weird funk cause I'm not excited right now. Mostly because I picked the option to print my ticket thinking it would be safer and  to avoid the risk of it getting lost in the mail. I mean, that's true, but I realised that it also means I won't ever get the real ticket to keep. :( I LOVE collecting tickets, I keep them for movies and plays and other concerts, and even trains, wtf. So yes, I am kind of sad about this. (TBH I know I'm being petty. I'm sure in a few days I will bounce back to be being excited, probably when the weather decides to stop being such a fricken' downer. But seriously, I don't think I've seen blue sky for a week, what is this?)

Here, have some art.



Done in Paint, because I haven't got any better program to draw with. Christmas wishlist: PhotoShop.
