I believe I did this once quite a while ago, but it's time for another round.

Comment with the word "ICONS!" and I'll choose six of your icons and then you'll post this with some explanation of the icons I chose.

h_loquacious gave me the following:( My icons under the cut )

Back from my vacation and just wanting to relax. So here's a meme!
Cooking gadget meme fromchloris

( Gadget Meme )

From who_in_whoville
Post the names of five fictional characters whose names begin with that letter, and your thoughts on each. The characters can be from books, movies, or TV shows. Comment, and I'll give you a letter!

who_in_whoville gave me the letter "M". 

• MacGyver: A lot not my first tv crush (that honor goes to Stephen Collins as Jake Cutter on Tales of the Gold Monkey), MacGvyver was really my first "must see" TV. Yeah, the show is cheese and all but MacGyver himself was awesome. He was the Doctor without a time machine and a sonic screwdriver. He used tea kettles and bits of string.
• Mary Richards: Mary had spunk, a job, a groovy apartment and the love of everyone. She was also what sitcom characters wish they were and still aren't even today. I discovered the show in college on Nick at Nite and have adored it ever sense.
• Lisa Miller: From Newsradio. Lisa was the obsessive overachiever who probably never had a good time. Well except maybe on Dave's sofa. Not always likeable she was again, someone a bit different in the sitcom scene.
• Mickey Smith: He was not the tin dog. Never the tin dog. He got himself a big gun and then he got the girl. Maybe not Rose, but hell Martha is no one's consultation prize.
• Sam Malone: Ah Sam, womanizing, kinda dumb, owned a bar even though he was an alcoholic. And yet there was something about him. Maybe it was trying to figure out why the hell he had such a soft spot for Diane or wondering if he ever really charged Norm and Cliff. But Cheers was something special (well until the Rebecca years) and went  out well.

Not terribly profound, but I wanted to do this while I had the list in mind.

From h_loquacious:
Comment to this post, and I will list five things I want you to talk about. They might make sense or they might be totally random. Then post that list, with your commentary, to your journal. Other people can get lists from you, and the meme merrily perpetuates itself.

She gave me a list of five and my discussion is below:

Created with Rum and Monkey's Personality Test Generator.

 

I had a few minutes to kill this morning so I went for the drabble generator that I've seen around the f-list. Which is at http://prillalar.com/drabbles/

For added randomness, I used a word generator for much of the answers. Tis a crossover! ;-)

I tag: vatta  , kitchennoodles, l_wells24, theerabbit,tenteaconverse,  svhwdwnut,  editrix,  asti68 

Because I'm bored. And avoiding doing dishes.

You Are Silk Pajamas

You are a very sensual person. There's nothing you like more than indulging your senses. You also love to bring others a new sensual awareness... whether it's through food, music, or intimacy. You like to treat yourself. You spend a lot of money taking care of yourself. You are likely to sleep on a luxurious bed with expensive sheets and pillows.

I do admit my favorite pair of pjs is silk though it's a bit light for now.

When you see this, quote Douglas Adams in your journal. 

From my favorite chapter of Hitchhicker's (Which I should really read again, I read it when I was 16 and while I found it funny then, I didn't *get* half of it)

"The last ever dolphin message was misinterpreted as a surprisingly sophisticated attempt to do a double-backwards-somersault through a hoop whilst whistling the 'Star Spangled Banner', but in fact the message was this: So long and thanks for all the fish."
