I have the what is probably hugest spider bite I have ever encountered right below the join of my thumb and hand and it is driving me insane. My entire arm itches. My legs are all twitchy and restless. Every single move I make seems to somehow aggravate the strange bruise-like mass it has become and I suspect that soon I will attempt to chop my entire hand off no matter how good it's been to me in the past ajfaigghgjawgk.

But, whatever! Not thinking about it!

My post-con sickness is slowly abating, to the point where I now have a voice again and can go whole hours without sneezing. Amazing! And last night my sister lured me out of my bed with the promise of a CVS run for more sudafed so she could use my student discount at the apple store for her new computer, and I now have an iPod Touch - for free! I'm not sure how this happened, except that it was fully rebated and very, very shiny.

[Poll #1227965]
To wrap this post up a bit, a slightly face-centric icon blurb. Twenty four in full: eight due South, eleven Callum Keith Rennie, three SGA, two Joe Flanigan.

If you don't know what number 12 is from, here, let me educate you. Scroll down to interesting scenes if you're in a hurry; you will not regret it.

There are biceps! Joe biceps! Pretty, pretty.

I think, in the interest of this poll, we need to know what names you have already given your other electronic devices. (Personally, I name everything. My computer is Rodney the MacBook Pro, naturally.)

I like to go into the Apple Store and play with the iPod Touch. It's so fancy!

And I'm glad you're feeling (mostly) better!

Aha! Well, my last laptop was named Elphaba because it tried desperately to be good to me, but always ended up putting a wrench in everything; this computer is Shep for pretty obvious reasons - one being its ability to charm me out of being mad at it; my last (and only) ipod was named PeaPod because it was green and adorable and I loved it to pieces. Ummm, I don't think I have any other electronics to name? My cell phone and I aren't really on speaking terms. :\

*snugs*

Jumping in to say that IMO you should continue with the theme of naming things after characters. It's an iPod Touch, so I'd go with a character who has an interesting reaction to touch/being touched, if you can think of one.

I've no room for any more icons, but these are very, very pretty.

Thank you! And may I say that your Ray is very very pretty and makes me smile in my heart? Because he does.

Nice CKR - will grab one or more - and I'm LOVING #3 of both of them together. Oh, boys. *sigh*

So massively in love! Cannot deal!

Agh, spider bite! I am hugely, hugely arachnophobic, so...*shudders*

*HUGS* Eep, sorry. I will protect you with my body.

....LJ just totally ate my comment, or at least, I think so. If this shows up twice, sorry!

Anyways, I can only assume you are turning into Spiderman. Tomorrow you should totally walk around testing your web-shooters and refusing to explain the behaviour if anyone asks.

You realize I'm going to do that now, don't you? Damnit.

It's the only sensible course of action!

Snagging 2 & 12. :D

Yay! Enjoy! :>

Callum, Callum, Paul, Callum, David! (Sorry, got a bit over-excited by the pretty Canadian boys.)

A totally understandable reaction. *nod nod*

Lovely icons :) Roooodney :)

And if the spider thing keeps annoying you, go to se a doctor. Please?

Promise. The swelling's gone down considerably in the past day, though, so now it looks less like an egg and more just like a regular ol' bug bite.

I'm finding it highly amusing that a bunch of us independently voted for the same name.

Some of those icons are very lickable. *yum*

I find that hilarious as well lol

I think Mer's kind of won out, tbh. And that's kind of an adorable name for an iPod. Mer.

*wiggle*

haha. I left my suggestion and then went to see what else was suggested... funny that...

Hahaha, Mer does seem to be winning out. Which is almost serendipitous seeing as I couldn't figure out how to shut the little pod up for hours.

ha! Well then it was meant to be obviously!
At least even if no one else knows what the name is from, it can always make you smile when you are down to think that your iPod Touch is called Mer... and then you can tell people its a boy if you like and watch them get a little confused haha.

My iPod is called Henry... and my iPod before that was called Stella. I feel its important to name these things :)

I have the what is probably hugest spider bite I have ever encountered right below the join of my thumb and hand and it is driving me insane.

ZOMG! Have you been to a doctor? This sounds like brown recluse or a black widow bite!! They be's bad, honey!

Okay, Mom-freak-out over--Your icons are lovely!

Ungh, those Due South ones are beautiful! I need to watch moar! Not enough tiiiime, boo.

Ipod touch! Dude! That is rather awesome of your sisterthing. I clearly need to see you again so I can fondle ~~you~~ it. And you. <3333

Fondling is always welcome when it comes to you, Anneling. ;D

Don't turn into Spiderwoman. It leads to all sorts of relationship problems, by all accounts.

Hahahahah, I will keep that in mind!

I saved 21 and will most definitely credit!

*stares at arm porn* *tilts head* Oh, that's lovely.

Mmm, arm porn! :">

I can't wait to get home and snag a bunch of these. 12!!!!

Yay! Callum is truly a hotass to be treasured.

Dammit I thought I was being all original- what does my choice say about the fannish hive mind?

Also your gorgeous dS icons have convinced me to upgrade to a paid account-when I had promised myself I wasn't spending any more on fripparies this month.

I've snagged #2 and #7

When I end up on the streets with the cats and a sign saying 'will read porn aloud for food' I hope you know I'm blaming you missy!

I will be sure to drop by with meals for you ALL the time. *beamish*

Mac!! Remember the black drawing salve you got when I was there and you had a spider bite?? Put some on a band-aid and put it on the bite!

I did already! It hasn't really helped much. Not much has, to be honest, although after three and a half days of itchy agony (remember those awesome bites I had when you were here that were ridiculously large and itchy and made me want to defenestrate myself? Yeah. Imagine that in a slightly more inconvenient spot), it's gone down a bit.
