I feel unloved. Not depressed, just unloved. Meh. It'll pass.

This whole audio blog thing is really nifty. Not because I like the sound of my own voice (which I don't--not on a recording, anyway. *shudders*), but because I find it really cool to be able to hear people's voices, and specifically, their accents. I'd be prepared to humiliate myself into posting an audblog purely so my American friends can be amused at my "odd" accent. However, the phone number is in the US, and probably isn't compatible with the Australian phone system anyway, because the American system SUCKS. Yes, yes it does. My parents can take their mobiles (note: not "cell phones", mobiles, short for mobile phones) practically anywhere in the world and use them; my dad's taken his to the Netherlands and Sweden and had it work, and he reckons it'd probably work in the UK ("they have the same system we do"), but not the US. Nooo. They have to be special. Stupid American bureaucracy and so forth. And besides, if I was going to purchase shit in American dollars, I'd be buying some fucking LJ icons, or possibly boots.

Which brings me to my next point:

OMG FUCKIN 50 ICONS!!!1!K

I officially hate all you bastards who have the icons already. Hate in an affectionate way, of course, but it doesn't stop me wanting to hunt down the person in charge of implementing permanent journals and holding their kids for ransom until they give me a permanent account with all that entails. Then I'd take them all out for icecreams, because I'm not a bad person.

OMG. Permanent accounts. Icons. Want. Want so bad. *has psychological breakdown*

Also, my mother has told me that she's going to do NaNoWriMo next year. Ahahaha! I drag another down into the abyss. Satan would be proud. So would the Mormons.

mrrr... I'd be willing to dole out the amount for a permanent account too, that's for sure. As for icons, it's not like it's a lot of money, really. Especially for icon gluttons. XD

Well, precisely. Are there permanent accounts available, though?

Not so far as I know, or I'd have one.

You mean permanent accounts, right? ^^; Just checking, as I am lame.

was just passing through ..
anyone can buy extra icons, you just need to have a paid journal, and then you can also buy 50 icons .. you dont have to be a permanent account.

No, I know. But I'd rather have a permanent account. And I also do not have the money to spare now, in any case, as I do not have a job.

I love those boots. I really do. I want a paaaaair.

Every now and then lj.com sells off permanent accounts - the last time they had them on offer was in January. They cost about 100 USD, and took about two days to sell out. You need to watch [livejournal.com profile] news in an anal retentive fashion to see when they're available. :/

Me too. Want so badly.

I vaguely remember that. I want a permanent account, dammit!

As a matter of fact, I want almost ALL of the boots on that site. If only I had money...

I want one too. But whenever they next sell some off, I'm willing to bet I'll be the brokest I've ever been.

I'm especially enamoured of the straight-across Victorian calf-highs. If I could get those in several colours, I'd be a happy chicken. Apparently, according to my Excel spreadsheet, the $162 boots are only AU$228.20 at the moment... and in theory, the AUD is going to climb to 75 US cents in the next short while, and they'll be even cheaper! Wantwantwant.

*nods* It's the way it always goes.

Climb, dollar, climb!

As a matter of fact, I'm willing to bet I'll be broke because I bought six million pairs of those shoes...
