What is an “Orc”?
Click on “orc” in the text for more information than you ever wanted on the evil critters under Sauron’s sway. The Encyclopedia of Arda is the best on-line reference for everything Middle Earth.

Return of the Precious Poppets
The first person who dares to defend the “dear little poppets” to me today gets decked. I got up early (for me on a Saturday). I woke around eight o’clock. The alarm was set to go off at nine (I have to take my pills then), and when I couldn’t get back to sleep by…
Inside the Mystery Package
The Ex appeared at my apartment last night as the very soul of puncuality. Sure enough, he had a a fairly large bag of mail addressed to me still going to the house. Virtually all of it was junk mail. Some of it was financial stuff that I know I already sent an address change…
Sunspots
I love lazy Saturdays. I love being the only one up and awake. I love watching drowsing cats sunning themselves in the checkerboard patterns of sunlight on the kitchen floor during their period of post-prandial morning bliss. I love that initial buzz from a really good cup of coffee that opens my eyes up to…
Sorry about the spam, folks.
It wasn’t my fault! All I can say in my own defense is that the Dear Diary system had a severe case of the indigestion, and I was unfortunate enough to attempt to update multiple times during the worst of it. I really did check after each update to see if the entry was there….
Persian Cat, Needs Home
Got (another) test tonight. It’s early afternoon in the library and I can’t concentrate. The test is theoretically on stuff I should already know from my veterinary training, but there are a few curveballs in it, and a few things I’m not sure how to handle. An example: sclerotic means “hardening”. I know it means…
How old am I?
Last year I didn’t even note the date. At least, not on the anniversary. Three years ago, it was a big deal. A lot has happened in three years. A lot has happened in eight years. Hell, a lot has happened in forty-eight years. For what it’s worth, according to some sort of tradition, today…
3.5 hours long? Hmm, we will definitely need an aisle seat as I am positive none of the kids have a 3.5 hour bladder capacity.

Sounds like a must-see for me, but I guess I’ll have to leave my orc costume at home….;-P

That’s one long movie! Glad it was worth it.
There’s a new poll on music at the open forum. Votes needed!
Oh man, I’m SO going to dress as an orc. That’s so stupid!! 😀
Someone came dressed like an ORC?! Ohhh, that’s bad, that’s VERY bad….
Hi, by the way. I read your diary all the time but I don’t know if I’ve ever left you a comment saying hello 🙂 So, hello!
Water 🙂
What is an orc?
lol @ StrangeBrew. I don’t know what an orc is either.
The Encyclopedia would go with you Pali.
I’ll go!!! Is there a Concorde flight between Seattle and you? That’s the only way I’d get there in time!
OK, maybe not.
Keep asking, I’m sure you’ll find someone. If not, do you have a Boys & Girls club near you? Maybe you could donate the rest of the tickets so some kids who otherwise wouldn’t be able to go can see it. Or take it to a local radio station for them to give away.

Wow! I’d ask what an Arda is, but I’m afraid you’d reach through the screen and slap me silly. lol!
Wish I could go with you.
Go =)
I’d go with you but it is approximately a 10 hour drive I think. If I can make a plane reservation, I’ll let ya know *giggles*
Followed the link and sped thru text,
what does the little bugger look like?
I saw a large fire breathing lizard perched on a red orb, could that be he?
You have free tickets and I cant go with you just because I moved 1500 miles away?!?
*SOB*
four free tickets!!!! i’d have gone with you
oh, what a pain when people back out of things
i saw rotk last night and loved it. for some reason, though, i think my favourite of the 3 is still number 2. not quite sure why
perhaps it has something to do with the fact that now lotr is officially ended, and that is kind of a sad thing 🙁
