I'll third it with great third (and fourth it with great quart, if need be)! Bonding with random strangers over shared geekdom is cool, I've had such moments with students across the circulation desk at the library where I work. One sported a bag the shape and colour of the Tardis, and it turned out she had been to The Doctor Who Experience in Cardiff in her holidays. Imagine my envy!
I also third what Zil and Rune said upthread about worrying too much. I do that too far too often, but fortunately I'm unlearning the habit under the beneficial influence of my happy-go-lucky wife.

On a less chat skwerly note, we also went to the Eagle and Child and when I eventually get my behind over to Oxenmoot, I will be assigning that to the Shire too. As an addendum, I also assign my garden because I love it and weeding gives me peace. I feel like Sam Gamgee would approve.

Feeling better in mind and body (not yet right mind you but better).

Coming back here after a year's absence and finding the forum still alive and well. ♥

Seeing two such fantastic things above this post, so appropriately assigned.
Happy to hear you're better, Mith, and welcome back, Agan!

Aww thank you, I missed you too!
While I was gone, though, I've been spreading the love of dwarves by doing several beard workshops, both with friends and Oxonmoot participants.
