Dear livejournal genie,

Like a year and a half ago I downloaded a batch of desktop icons from, I think, the Apple site, where anyone can post icon sets or screensavers or whatever they make. Because I am deeply stupid and until today I didn't know how to attach an image to a folder, I assumed that these icons had a glitch (b/c they were just images, not folders, and when I tried dragging documents into them nothing happened), so I think I eventually deleted them.

They were really, really cute, it was a set based on Magnetic Fields songs, where each icon was a cartoon depicting a song. So, 10,000 Firefles was a jar of firefles, and there was one of an Eiffel Tower, etc.

I want them. I just went through what's available for downloads on the Apple site and they are not there. Does anyone know what I am talking about, or where I can procure them?

Merci.

download the files, unzip them, there will be a bunch of icons. To append an icon to a folder, click on the icon, click on "get information," then click on the picture of the icon in that rectangle that will pop up, copy, "Get information" for the folder you want to append the icon to, select the picture of that folder and click paste. Voila.

hi, anthrobaby! sorry i've been non-existant over the past couple of weeks. sick. sick. flu. stomack bug. some more flu. blah blah balh...
hey! what are you doing this upcoming thursday? i just heard: vera pavlova will be giving a small reading. care to come out for a day?
if not, she is often reading at this lit. evening thing that my friend is hosting, but i'd be cool if you came! only you may not be able to crash with me, as max's friends from amsterdam are in town (i don't remember exactly when they are coming, but i think it is either tomorrow or on wed.)
also, a possibility i will be in boston on saturday, but nothing is set in stone yet. anyway, let's touch base.

miss ya,

A.

Ask her if she remembers my dad, would you? Mark My Last Name.

If you will be in Boston on Sat. I, of course, want to see you. You must take me to one of those roast-beef-free diners.
