Arwen1858: is that recurve bow something that you shoot, or do you just hang it on your wall...?

My longbow is a "Mirkwood" black with silver-painted design. Nice and light, 30# draw weight and 28# draw length, and a whopping 6' long... I'm new to longbow, and don't have much holding power yet!

Now I need a pair of white long-knives. And a grey/green cloak.

In terms of On-The-Shelf:
In addition to one of the newer boxed sets, I recently added the "No Admittance except on Party Business" bookends. They're next to my Argonath bookends. And I coudn't resist the $2.00 Legolas figurine from Barnes & Noble... looks kinda cute across from my Bag-End keychain...

I'm waiting for the TTT Collector's edition in the mail. And I'm hoping for a complete set of the Inglis CDs.... (hope hope hope)

I rearranged my bookshelves, and Tolkien books now take up six shelves. How's this for addiction? I have... (1, 2, 3, 4...) twenty-two copies of the Trilogy on my shelves plus one that is out on loan to my sister. So that's twenty-three copies all told.... mostly just paperbacks!

And I **STILL** haven't completed my set of HoME.

No wonder my husband thinks I've completely and utterly lost it.
