many random things

First of all, GIP, because I finally went and bought myself a paid account, and spent most of yesterday afternoon making myself extremely bad icons (most of which will never see the light of day) using MS Paint, since that's the only photo editing software I have. I'm probably going to buy Photoshop and go nuts this weekend, though, making slightly more sophisticated bad icons. Whee!

And I've been sitting on my hands trying not to post silly polls every single hour, since the ability to create polls is actually what drove me to get the paid account in the first place. Actually, that's not true--when I *couldn't* make polls, I had brilliant ideas for polls all the time, but now that I can actually make them my creativity has withered on the vine.

Finally, I am finding it very fun to finally be able to use "friendsfriends." I predict much time wasting in my future. And one thing I discovered while surfing friendsfriends is that Joss Whedon has responded to the rumors about the CW restarting "Firefly" here.

Thanks! I love polls. I always vote in people's polls, sometimes even if I don't know what they're talking about! Back when I was seriously lurking, polls were a really non-threatening way to participate in lj for me.

Making bad icons is one of my favourite things to do.

Polls and friendsfriends are the greatest LJ things ever. Although pointless in many many way. *nods*

I really like your icon--did you make that one? (*Goes to your page, looks at your icons that are not attributed to other people*) I really like "Yayity", which is really my favorite new word, ever, if I haven't already told you that. And "Step the fuck off", too.

I'm really looking forward to making bad icons, you know? And pointless polls, once I can think of some again.
