Amarantha_Daisy has just left Hobbiton.

Hello! I'm Amarantha, and I'm the only Tolkien fan in my family, too. My mom read the books when she was in high school, but she doesn't remember them... My dad thinks the movies are "too drawn out" and my sister thinks LotR is for geeks. (But then again, she's one of those snotty popular types, so...)

Yep. I like to scare them by speaking in Sindarin, quoting, talking to my action figures, and randomly acting out scenes. Acting out parts of The Silm is fun beacause they have no movie to go by... They get very confused and say "I don't remember that part..." [img]smilies/evil.gif[/img] I also like to bring up LotR during completely unrelated dinner conversations... But then again, don't we all? [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]
