Salix has just left Hobbiton.
Silmaril

Let's see, as soon as I got the soundtrack, Ilistened to it practically non-stop,but sometimes my family got mad at me so I put on Matrix soundtrack, I'm on barrowdowns whenever I can, I refuse to buy half the merchandise because it's not real, I want a sword and a bow and arrows, I refuse to let my mom finish a cloak because it's like a short elven cloak, my little sister got mad at me because we had agreed that she'd buy sims vacation(don't ask) and I'd buy LOTR, but I'm watching LOTR too much so she cant watch, I'm compliling a script of FOTR and I'm trying to get it perfect, I quote the movie and book all the time, I actually own elven boots, when I wore this jacket I have with a certain pair of pants, and those boots a friend actually called me an elf, and I have a set of Sherlock Holmes books that are dark green (there's two of them) and that same friend told me that they looked like elven books, and the only reason I haven't read Unfinished tales or HoME or LT is:
A. Because my parents refuse to buy any Tolkien books edited by Christopher Tolkien.
B. My school library (which is the third largest library in my city) doesn't carry them, and
C. I spent all my money buying FoTR and I haven't gotten my allowance yet.
I would LOVE a golden ring to string around my neck (I even have the perfect necklace) but I don't know where to get them!

My newer copy of FOTR has the binding bent in many places, some of the coloring one the letters is gone along with along the binding, the very first page is ripped, I inscribed my name in dwarf runes in the front, my book automatically opens to the beginning of the chapter The Bridge Of Khazad-Dum, and I usually have my little dwarf rune cheat sheet there. I think i should stop babbling on now. [img]smilies/tongue.gif[/img]
