Liz's Journal

I wanted Zabeth or Ysabeau for a username but they were both taken...

Ixwin was a random nickname for me suggested at one point but never actually used, so it seemed sort of appropriate for a new venture like this. I would much rather have a meaningless username, as I'd find anything descriptive far too limiting.

I'm off now to fiddle around with my Journal settings. Back soon!

Well, that'll do for now anyway.

Should have a user icon in the next few days, as I have been taking pictures of people in my department at work for the office intranet, so I'll send my own picture home to myself via e-mail.

It was quite amusing actually...several months ago I'd suggested that it would be a really good idea if there were photos of people accessible via the intranet, so that if you needed to go & see someone you'd been speaking to on the phone, you'd be able to find them easily, and everyone had said "yeah, that's a great idea". Then when it actually comes to taking the photos, they're suddenly a lot more reluctant...

I went through a self-conscious, hating-being-photographed phase in my teens (doesn't everyone?) but don't have a problem with it now. Still get a bit self-conscious being videoed (sp?) though.
