    @kari-karast – Well, unfortunately, my schedule is full and my budget is tight, so between the time travelling and sneaking aristocrats across the border, I don’t think I’ll be able to get around to chucking those awesome books at you. Sorry. Another time, fair lady. *doffs hat*

    @ericawordsmith – *WAILS* Yes, I have heard about the Amazon LotR thing!!! It’s horrible. But I also think that whatever they are producing is pre-Lord of the Rings in timeline, so I don’t think they are having the same characters we know. Maybe ones like Gandalf and Galadriel, since they’ve been around forever.

    How To Train Your Dragon… okay, I’ve never thought of that line as making Gobber a gay character. He’s just a weird guy and it was random line, so… I’ve never thought of it as anything, and I’ve never heard anything official saying this is a gay guy.

    I’ve never seen The Greatest Showman. It’s looks okay, and some of my friends love it, but Dad has decided that we’re not going to watch it. It’s because, even though there aren’t gay characters in the movies, the message of ‘accept people as they are’, which is good, definitely, can be construed to mean that you should not tell gay people they’re wrong and should just take them for ‘who they are’. Some of the songs are pretty. Zach Effron is just adored because he’s a hot young movie star that can sing tolerably well. 😛 Hollywood’s next heartthrob.

    Um… I’m sorry I got you terribly confused. No, I’m not southern. I’m very northern. But I speak southern words sometimes because I’ve vacationed down there, I pick up accents easily, and my friend has relatives down there so she comes back speaking Southern. I didn’t mean I lived down there. Sorry for the disappointment… you seemed really excited. XD Plus I just like the word ‘y’all’. I use it all the time. But, no, I live in the northern half of the States. Sorry.

    We’ve never thought about giving each of us the Fellowship names. It’d probably be hard to do, cause our youngest ones are very little, and my baby doesn’t really have a distinct personality yet that could be matched up. I would love to be Sam, but Pippin would probably be closer. 😊

    @eden-anderson – *raises hand timidly* I am a very weepy person. I do cry over a lot of things. I just don’t like people to see it. It’s a complicated emotional thing, but trust me, you are not alone in wearing your heart on your sleeve. Also, you are not and will never be annoying. Well, unless you’re like jumping on me and screaming or something.

    @wordsmith – I still appreciate you and your courage to attempt this, even if I don’t voice it. You have my vote, and I’m very sure you could do much, much better than most of the guys I know. Okay, actually all of the guys I know. I’m sure it will be epically awesome. If you want to find horrible heels to try, go to Goodwill. Their selection is horrendous. But in all honesty, if you’ve never spent a day in heels that actually ‘fit’ you, as in are your size, you can’t appreciate the pain. I did it in two-inch heels as a challenge, and not only did I fall down sixteen times, but my foot was bleeding when I took them off. They are horrible, cramping, torture for your feet, one of the most sensitive body parts. As I said, I admire your courage.

    Also, I don’t think your tags work when you have a comma next to them, so you might have to put them like this @wordsmith , @anneoflothlorien ,…

    Hey, I have three votes for the oxford comma! Three votes, ladies and gentlemen, do I hear four?! 😊

    @erica-wordsmith – Hey, girl, you ain’t the only clumsy one out there. I have had people at church follow me closely when I’m carrying something fragile because they know I fall a lot. I mean… a LOT! I knock dishes off the counter every time I wash things, and I drop things inexplicably and trip over empty space. All. The. Time.

    I’m just not a graceful being. More like a chaos in motion kind of person. But it’s me, so I live with it. It’s actually slightly useful, because I get extra help and people offering to do things so I won’t make a mess.

    One thing I’ve always been jealous of in fiction is this girl from The Girl Who Could See. Have you read that? Well, you should. Really good. But she has hallucinations of this person from another world, and he always catches her when she falls. Always. And that would come in pretty useful for me!!!

    I have hallucinations as part of migraines, and they’re not fun, but I might be able to put up with them if they would provide bodyguard service like that. 😊
