neverwhere

Guess who hugged Sir Ian Mckellan tonight!

That's right, ME! Wooohoooo! :D

I posted the info to

lordoftherings, click here to read all about it. And you might enjoy clicking here as well, to see more evidence that Nevvie likes causing havoc in this community. *laughs*

In other news...I have decided to refrain from being political on my journal. It doesn't suit me, and I don't like the way it upsets my friends. Plus it brings out the trolls -- Hellooooooooo trolls! *waves* I had no idea there were strange people reading my journal without my knowledge. I suppose I should be flattered. *G*
But just so we're clear -- you will still have to endure some environmental ramblings (SAVE THE KAKAPO!), because it's my journal and I'll preach about saving the planet if I damn well please! So there. :) (Being eco-friendly just more me, and I'm sure it's alot less controversial, so I think I'll stick with what I know, and more importantly, what I like.)

Welcome new friends

cacklebang,

drownedangel and

mmulberry! Damn I'm popular. *laughs* Too bad it's only online. I'd give anything to have the same success making friends in the 'real' world as I do online. Ah well.

I have no idea why I am still awake at this ungodly hour. Perhaps I am still feeling giddy from my date with Ian. (HA! If only...;-)

And now, because I can't remember any of the other things I wanted to say, here is a funky quiz by

eibhinn.

1) What are your three favorite Non-LOTR movies?

Hmm. Wargames, Monty Python's Life of Brian, and The Last Unicorn spring instantly to mind. But there are so many others...

2) What are your three favorite bands or artists?

Tori Amos, The Divine Comedy, The Beatles

3) What are your three favorite semi-obscure bands (don't get nearly the attention they should)?

The Young Dubliners!! The Divine Comedy, Moxy Fruvous

4) What book, if any, are you reading right now?

Re-reading the Griffin and Sabine trilogy by Nick Bantock.

5) If you could live anywhere in the world, where would you live?

Either Christchurch, New Zealand, or a beautiful ivy covered cottage in the Cotswolds, one of the most beautiful areas of Britain.

6) What is your most prized LOTR related possession?

My 'Hobbits at Weathertop' photo signed by all four sexxxxxy Hobbit boys. Mmmmmm.

7) What is your most prized non-LOTR related possession?

A tie between my 1st edition Mostly Harmless autographed by Douglas Adams (which I used to hold and comfort me when I was feeling sad or lonely) and my 1st edition Good Omens signed by both Neil Gaiman and Terry Pratchett.

8) What is your talent (you're allowed to be full of yourself)?

I couldn't pick just one talent! *giggles* I have an absolutely bottomless reserve of useless knowledge that I am liable to use at any moment. (The largest animal ever found inside a snake was a fully grown tiger inside a reticulated Python. See? Did you really need to know that? ;-)

9) Pimp a CD.

Promenade by The Divine Comedy.

10) Pimp a book.

Tourist Season by Carl Hiaasen.

11) If you were a member of the Fellowship, which would you be (most fitting to your personality)?

I AM PIPPIN! :) No, really, I am. Ask

eyre_lasgalen,

wreibyn or

ashfae. They've lived with me, they know. I really am exactly like him.

12) Favorite LOTR actor/actress.

Billeh. Although I've been an Ian Mckellan fan for many years.

13) If you had to pimp three journals, whose would you pimp?

How can I choose just three!

sillypants because she is so delightfully playful and, well, silly. :)

trianne because she cracks me up and everyone should love her.

ashfae because she is a Goddess and I love her so very much.
