Reply to this post with the words "TEA. EARL GREY. HOT" and I will pick six of your icons.
• Make a post (including this info) and talk about the icons I chose.
• Other people can then comment to you and make their own posts.
• This will create a never ending cycle of icon glee.

gadgetorious picked these for me:




By avictoriangirl. She made this for me after I posted my Cupid!Bones fic Once Shot, Twice Shy because she thought this line should be immortalized via icon. I love it deeply.




I have no idea who made this or where I got it, but I adore HBO's Rome and I adore Lucius Vorenus. I just....do. That is all.




By gadgetorious. Dr. Horrible meets Reboot. My love for it, let me show you it.




By gadgetorious. This one is keyworded as "Ample Nacelles." That is all I can really say about that. Sometimes I am deep and mostly I am...not. :D




By vivid_moment. "I like this 'ship. It's exciting!" This icon expressed everything I think and feel about my fandom of choice. The end.




This one was posted fairly recently but I don't remember where and I forgot to put in the note because I suck. BUT. I love this icon. Jim and Johnny Cash are like the OTP of my brain. (Have you READ any of my fic?? Then you KNOW.) Also, it cracks me the hell up. :D

Oh what set of LOTR?

And yeah I like Prof!Karl from Demons, silly as it is. His office is bigger than mine though. *SULK* ;)

And yes, DO talk about books more!!!!!!!!!!!

This set with the illustrations by Alan Lee - http://www.abebooks.com/Lord-Rings-Illustrated-Volume-Boxed-Set/1329624312/bd

An ex bought it for me, so he did manage to do some good things ;)

When I worked for a Student Association at another Uni, my office was actually a broom closet. It was listed on the plan as that! :D

Oh god, once I start talking about my love of Pratchett we may never stop :D

My office isn't small, it's just there's so much stuff in it. (And the desk is huge. Though I LOVE my desk.)

And okay I covet that LOTR set now. :D

[nikki4noo.livejournal.com]

It is a gorgeous set, the illustrations are to die for.

I adored my little broom closet, it had in it a huge old school wooden desk, a huge old style desktop PC, three filing cabinets, a fax machine, a photocopier AND my kinder surprise collection. The students had a competition once as to how many students could be fitted into my office without disturbing the kinder surprises :D

[caitri.livejournal.com]

LOL. I can't fit more than a couple people in my office right now. Too much stuff.

[nikki4noo.livejournal.com]

They managed to get 12 in I think, standing on chairs and the desk and sitting on one of the filing cabinets. Agricultural studies students have waay too much time on their hands :D But they were easy to deal with, promise them a keg and they would turn up to anything!

[caitri.livejournal.com]

LOL, duly noted. I work at an ag school, might be useful one day...

[nikki4noo.livejournal.com]

hahaha, really? I had originally typed 'aggies' and then realised that most people wouldn't understand who I was referring to. Although being australian we shorten everything and I confused my UK workmates by telling them I was going to visit the 'rellies'.

Oh boy, Keg on the Hill is an institution at where I used to work. I used to tell them how much they were allowed to spend on kegs before the function. I would come to work on Monday with at least double that in a bill waiting on my desk. They did dump two huge buckets of money on my desk which more than paid for it, so it was ok. The downside was that the ute was still up on the hill, stuck down firm in the mud as the night they had it, it pissed down with rain and the ute got bogged. :D I miss those nutters at times.

[caitri.livejournal.com]

Yeah, we're the Fightin' Texas Aggies here.

No kegs though. Being an American is...really dull sometimes.

[nikki4noo.livejournal.com]

That just seems so weird that you have almost responsible college students! Isn't that an oxymoron?

[caitri.livejournal.com]

Mmm, don't think that's quite accurate. They're just irresponsible in other ways. ;)

[nikki4noo.livejournal.com]

well I did put the 'mostly' caveat there ;)

[caitri.livejournal.com]

Appropriate icon is appropriate. ;)

[nikki4noo.livejournal.com]

I liked it :D
