Alas, the October meme is over, and now I don't have anything to fall back on when life is boring and I have no stories to tell.
Oh, well, now Andrew and I are about to watch The Hobbit, so maybe I'll update this post in a couple of hours with my impressions... I mean, I hated that book, but I was young, and I really do like the LotR movies. Oh man, I am totally realizing as I type this that I didn't like The Hobbit partly because there are no girls in it (my favorite character in LotR is Eowyn)... Anyway, check back here later, and we'll see how I feel about the movie! Maybe I won't want Smaug to eat them all this time through.
Edit: We're all of 10 minutes into this movie, and I am still totally on the dragon's side. He was just doing what dragons do!
Edit 2: Movie over now, and I liked it! However, everyone in this movie, except Bilbo, is some manner of douchebag. Oh, and except Galadriel too, because she is beautiful and perfect and should be in ALL THE MOVIES. I am still not convinced that the dwarves are in the right, no matter how much Andrew tells me that they are, and I think they should have listened to Balin and just stayed in their nice new home, not gone and started shit.
Answer to last Saturday's song: Banana Boat Song (Day-O) by Harry Belafonte. No one guessed this. :(
