Happy New Year, Voice Posting, and Livejournal Layouts

[strangetomato]

First of all, Happy New Year, everyone! I'll be honest. I don't much like the number nine, but I'm keeping a positive attitude about this one. I rang in the new year at a wedding party, so it was a blast. We wore funny plastic fedoras. Good times were had by all.

I'm thinking of doing a voice post for that cultofrances pronunciation challenge, but I'll probably wait until I'm back home on my own phone line (which is looking to be tommorrow). It's interesting to hear how other people's voices sound. I think you'd get a better idea of my accent if I read a short piece of writing instead of just the names, so maybe I'll read a drabble or something like that too. Any requests? 

Also, I was wondering if anyone would be able to recommend a site that offers customized livejournal layouts with a space for inserting your own header. I want to change mine up a little with something outside of the layouts offered by default, but I don't even know where to start.

Happy New Year ST! I hope this year is as awesome for you as last year was.

I can't wait for you to do the Voice Post! I like hearing everyone's accents, it's so cool.

Maybe you could read one of your shorter drabbles? That way we could get a feel for your accent, like you say.

I know nothing about the layouts. I'm thinking of changing my Sim one, but all the LJ ones are so... ugly.

Also, I forgot, maybe you could read the one about why Franny doesn't like Ninjas, pirates or vampires? :P
