Are all the late-night hobbits sleeping in or are they eating second breakfast?

This hobbit has had seconds already, and is looking forward to elevenses...not sure I'll make it that far, so I'll just have a small seedcake in the meantime...took a nice little jaunt through the Shire (actually the gynasium, but I had to visualize the Shire to erase the fact that Paula Zhan kept her little face up on the tv screen...WHY do they have to have TVs in the workout room??? GAH!)

As per the Ring being alive, yes, in a manner of speaking. "All his thought is bent upon it..." Gandalf said, so speaking to the will of Sauron being so great and so far reaching that not even the bounds of the Shire could keep it out. I thought the scene with Boromir holding it and becoming entranced by it as he pondered "so much grief for such a little thing." [sic]...BRILLIANT!

Good morning all! Just finished first breakfast...pancakes, bacon and eggs.

I tried to go to bed early, but got to talking to Suzi about the Inglis audiotapes and that got me to thinking I could probably check them out from the library Sure enough, they have the CDs! I'm going to try to make CD copies. Still, I think it would neat to make my own.

Don't be hard on yourself, g'nad! It got a good discussion going there for a sec and it's the LOTR discussions on here that I love the most!

WHY do they have to have TVs in the workout room???

Some of us wonder why there is workout equipment in the TV room...

It belongs in the bedroom so you have a place to hang your jeans...

Good morning everyone!

Went to bed early here last night (actually, fell asleep reading) so as a result wound up with about 10 hours of sleep. I guess I needed it!

Have been up and out already this morning. Turns out they couldn't get things arranged in time for me to start my new job today, so I'll be starting next Monday or Tuesday. I don't mind, because I'll be able to get some stuff done around the house instead.

Hope everyone has a good day!
