The Letter "D"

[jedishampoo]

From all over my f-list... Memeage. Comment on this post and I'll give you a letter (unless you tell me you don't want one). List 10 persons/things you love that start with the respective letter.

knight_ander gave me the letter "D". This was tough at first, and then I realized I actually did like some things with the letter "D!" And it's nice to make a happy post. :) Cut so as not to spam the f-list.



1. Dahlias/Daffodils: I used to grow the heck out of these in Indiana. I had some huge, lovely dahlias, and multicolored daffodils. But now I live in the "D"esert, where I can't grow anything, so...

2. Desert Landscaping: needs little water and survives well, so that the HOA doesn't come after me for "D"ead grass.

3. Dean Venture: I love that lil' guy, from the Venture Brothers cartoon. If you haven't watched it, please do. It's so fun, nerdy and clever.

4. Dolmades: the Greek grape-leaf rolls. Without the meat. With lemon sauce.

5. Duran Duran: Yup, I was a Durannie back in the day, and their music still holds up so well, better than a lot of 80s stuff.

6. Dazzler. So I liked X-Men in the 80s and 90s. So Dazzler was my favorite character. Don't laugh at me too hard, please.

7. Doodling. After boring work meetings my notepad is covered with swirls and faces and shapes and all kinds of things that I have to hide from my boss.

8. Drumsticks. Not the meat kind (vegetarian!) but the vanilla ice-cream things with nuts and chocolate inside the cone. Yummy.

9. Digital camera. It makes selling on E-bay and getting pics developed so much easier.

10. Doujinshi! I have an addiction to Japanese fan comics. They're like fanfiction, except with pretty pictures. Or sexy pictures, depending on the kind you buy. Mrowr. I have zillions for Howl's Moving Castle and am growing a nice Saiyuki doujinshi collection, also.

Give me a letter! I need a meme to do...I can only waste so much time on Flickr, and there's no way I'm going to actually be productive and finish the power point that I need to present tomorrow.

Hey, if you're a good photographer, then why not waste time on something you like? ;) Hmmm.... I give you an... "H!"

Oh believe me, I have wasted PLENTY of time on photography. This morning I got up at 7:30ish in hopes of getting to campus relatively early. Instead, I spent the whole morning taking self-portraits. Then, as I realized I was about to be late, I had to actually restrain myself from taking a random photo of myself putting my sock on. "The lighting and angles are perfect," my artistic side told myself; "Your whole life can't be a self-portrait," my practical side countered. For once, the practical side won.

I think I'm kind of hyper today since I barely slept last night. I'm also (still) avoiding productive work. Ignore the rambly pointlessness of this comment.
