Where?
hah, so did I. I have been on such a strict diet thing and haven't had any mexican in a looong time. I think d and I will hafta hit the Comales tonight for dinner. BA at work here this morning told me I'm getting skiinny. lol not me. Haven't been skinny since I was 12. No wait, when I lived in Austin with those hippies I was skinny, early seventies. pre-partum. ya know.
New digs again!!! Ai Ai Ai!! (are elves familiar with Chihuahua?)
Have completely dismantled my blog page. It was so overrun with comment spammers I just gave up. Now I only post on Live Journal, which seems to be a much more laid back community. They are a bit more sensitive and not a whole lot are inclined to debate (at least, not a lot), but I feel like I can post there any time I please without feeling that if I miss a day, I will have lost my 'audience.' I am enjoying it a lot. Plus there are some very creative/artistic people who post on there, and I don't feel like I am going to bore people if I decide that for a day or two I'd rather talk about how Manly Jack Aubrey is over how Manly President Bush is (which both are, but the two arent exactly the same, you know?!)
anyway, that's what I ahve been doing, including trying to wean myself of the computer as well. I quit going to the Khazad-dum forum because I got ticked off for being called on the carpet for things that had never been a problem up until the time two new posters to the thread I managed decided to stir up trouble and bad mouth the characters/books we were talking about. THEN I was in trouble for going slightly off-topic. It was really stupid and I decided I was tired of walking on egg-shells with these people.
Have been catching up to some crochet and gardening. I love my new house!
Hope all is well with everyone! Hair, you are SUCH a wonderful Hobbit Hole Keeper!
Another move! :O)
Just looooove the smell of a new hobbit hole!
Any of that left for a hungry hobbit?
I told you that anything can come in when you open the door, LOL!
HI, DARKS!
How's my fellow "Pippin" watcher?
Indeed!
I come over here or at the DD thread to get away from politics! :O)
And I go over to the DOSE thread to gey away from the Bush bashers.
It's not supposed to be a political thread but I'm afraid it's subject matter invites the TROLLS, I think you should go over there from time to time to catch some of them trolls. LOL!
What is a FAMPL thread?
doing fine! Have been watching a certain English captain more than a Uniformed Prince of Halflings of late...I got rather burned out on LOTR due to a 'friend' of mine whose entire conversation circled around her favorite bits and characters and no matter how I tried to change the subject, always steered the conversation around to her way of thinking. It got old fast. But there are other reasons why I really don't wish to associate with her anymore.
I like to break away from things myself...gives me a chance to get a breather so that when I do return, I have a fresher perspective...and perhaps a bit more humor about it. Patrick O'Brian has turned out to be the perfect diversion. Its so unlike Tolkien and fantasy that emotions I had long thought gone have been resurrected. I have SUCH a crush on Jack Aubrey, and delight all the time on Stephen Maturin and O'Brian writes so wonderfully, I am having such fun. I am sure by the time LOTR:ROTK comes out in Extended form, I will be ready to view it with a fresh eye. And then I'll be wanting more pictures of Ernil i Pheriannath!
