Apparently I can only make icons when I'm procrastinating from something else - even when the thing I'm avoiding is something fun like reading comics. I do not understand my brain. But there should finally be an icon post in the next few days because some of these have been sitting there for almost four months and it is getting ridiculous.

Last weekend I met up with
mskatej,
glammetalkitten and
penumbra and we had an excellent time getting lost in Covent Garden (this happens to me every time), buying beads (I made the two necklaces yesterday), eating Malaysian food (very early and very delicious), drinking expensive wine (in the only place we could find with free seats), laughing at The Aristocrats (so funny and so disgusting), drinking reasonably priced wine (at Kate's house), watching Hush (best Buffy episode ever) and taking about random fannish things (none of which I can remember - apart from the debate about the relative acting abilities of Tom Welling and Jensen Ackles).
On Sunday I met my friend G for lunch and we accidently visited ALL the comics shops and drunk lots of tea instead of visiting a museum as we'd vaguely planned. Oops! Among other things, I bought a secondhand copy of Teen Titans: Changing of the Guard (from the era when it was really bad and everyone was dying) for £5 just because it featured Steph and Misfit.
Why did no one tell me that Steph and Traci 13 once had a sparring match at Titans Tower and Misfit bounced in the middle of it? You all fail. That one scene was worth the £5 and more than made up for the terribleness of the rest of it.
