I'm too cold to think of transitions between these topics

New icon, in honor of RotK which will be out in a matter of WEEKS (ahh! where did the time go?!). For without Luthien, Arwen, bless her heart, would not be. Eh.

I'm sitting here with my fingers freezing, barely able to type. The sun had once again hid itself from my longing gaze. However, I am just about ready to go for a pleasant stroll through an old graveyard (That's the trouble with our church--it's not old enough to have Old Tombs)

*later* Enjoyed it quite a lot. I should go down there more often.

Last week I attended a funeral. Last year, on the very same day, I attended a funeral. This is freaky. And the men who died exactly a year apart lived just a half mile from each other.

I find people facinating. I would really like to get inside people's minds and really know what motivates and drives them, why they act the way they do. Unfortunantly, all but the closest friends don't take kindly to this sort of intrusion. And I can't even understand myself a lot of the time, so I guess I don't have any business probing anyway.

I finished my Elvish costume yesterday; dress, cape, headdress, everything. I'll wear it to see Return of the King in just a few weeks, and then again when I see it with Gwen B. on New Years Day. At some point in time pictures will doubtless be uploaded here.

Mm. I'm off to post on my GreatestJournal (literarymusings) about a disapointing book, a great book, and Steven Lawhead's newest.

Oooh, you're wearing a costume to see RotK? Cool! Are you going on opening night? We're hoping to go on the Thursday after opening night!

[eattheolives.livejournal.com]

Probably not opening night. =P More likely I'll go the next day. But I'm terribly excited to be going as an elf!

Oooh, I would be too! What is your costume like? Is it modeled after any outfits from the movies?

[eattheolives.livejournal.com]

Not any one costume--it's a combination of Eowyn's white dress and some of the background elvish dresses. Cowl neck, trailing Things In the Back, large sleeves (of course!), and a belt modled after Eowyn's. Picture will be posted eventually. =)

Oooh, sounds lovely! :) I'll be looking forward to seeing pictures!

And I am the exact same way (which is one of reason psychology fascinates me). You think I'd stop being surprised by now at how many things we share...

A curiousity I share. I must wonder. Why? Why are certain people certain people, and not other people? What would it be like to live, for a day, the life of another? Hmmmm.

Off to look at literarymusings latests posts. =)

Yes - there must be pictures!

[eattheolives.livejournal.com]

There will be!
