I have user pics!

[shadowedge613]

The contest of the user pic has yeilded my two superb entries from Ms. Penchanter, which rock my world. I must send you your prize soon. As for all you other people, you should totally look at my icons.

"dessert first" is superimposed over a picture of my hair as it was done up for graduation,
and "Persephone Swallows" over a cut out of the Pomagrante I made out of beads for my outfit. (For anyone who wasn't paying attention to me, I did my thesis on modern versions of Persephone.)


In other, less fun news, I have been working my rear off doing temp work in a cafe, which sucked, but they paid me more money to stay for the last two weeks. Friday is my last day. I'm looking for alternate life paths, this one is not cutting it for me.

oh! AND THE MEME!
