End hiatus

Well, that was absolutely unrefreshing. Not to mention my cat decided that the human lying down and turning off the light was the signal for her to rattle the window shutter all night. Can you say "no sleep until 5am?" I knew you could.

And yes, I am working on a site redesign. Yes also I am working on a novel, but that has been the situation since I was about fourteen, so it's not really worth mentioning. Also, I am going to have to ask my instructor for an incomplete, I am thinking of changing my minor or maybe dropping the idea of getting a minor altogether, and I don't even want to think about next semester.

PS: yes, that image in the previous post is supposed to be a spoiler image for Return of the King. The house I would prefer to live in would like Bag End on the inside, but would have Rivendell on the outside. You know that that scene with Aragorn and Arwen in The Two Towers is my future bedroom, my future balcony, and my future back yard, right?

That novel better not be about cabbage!

My future bedroom and my future Aragorn [g]

But I need doors or something. Or a maid... keeping the floor clean with all those leaves blowing in isn't going to be easy!

Maybe, once the war is over, everyone can contribute to a collaborative novel about cabbage, cats, crypts, corruption, and maybe even cuddling. It might be funnier than Naked Came the Stranger (not difficult).

omigod, you soudn like me...have been 'working on a novel' since I was fifteen...

Kinda ruins inspiration to go back and re-read Tolkien, doesnt it...I keep hearing the nasty little voice say 'you'll never measure up!!'

Tolkien, THE MASTER.

Oh well...I've decided my elves won't moan about having to leave. They are decidely there to stay.

I'd pick Bag End inside and out...sometimes I pop in the LOTR dvd just to watch the whole beginning narrative traveling through the Shire. And I love all the round windows and doors.
