# 27

I am late again. No surprise but today was rather nice after a long line of shitty shitty days. My Aunt Janie came for lunch then we ate dinner with my friend Pam and her whole family so that was wonderful. The babies are growing like weeds! There are twin boys and a gorgeous little girl then there's Maddox, who will be 5 in March.

Tomorrow is banking and groceries and such. Not much on the agenda this week. A trip to the tractor store for a present for Maddox and some yummy salad and a tiny little pizza at our favorite pizza place. Pam is having knee surgery on Wednesday and her brother is having surgery Friday so I'll probably go hang out at her house Friday since her kids have to work and her mom will be with her brother.

How about the Oscars? I had seen so few of the movies and many of them looked just yucky. I will give Inception a try. I've been wanting to see The King's Speech because I adore Geoffrey Rush! Who doesn't love Barbossa? Luin77 did not like Black Swan but I might give it a try. 127 Hours, not my cup o' tea. Nor the boxing movie. Can't stand Mark Wahlberg. The scene from Rabbit Hole had a false ring... no person who had lost their child would EVER say what Kidman's character said about losing a 30 year old drug addict son is not the same as a four year old who got hit by a car... no frakking way. I can't stand Nicole Kidman anyway. And some movie about Ozark Mountain hicks? Really? bleh! We got our own hicks, thank you very much. WHERE ARE THE GOOD MOVIES!!!????

Sherlock and Watson were rather adorable at the Oscars as they bickered as only they can. RDJ=adorable wastrel Charlie Sheen=moronic washed up egomaniac. See the difference? Besides, I prefer RDJ's rakish good looks. I even like Jude as Watson... and I've never been a fan.

I enjoyed Anne Hathaway's dresses and must admit she'd looked better in one than James Franco. That boy could do a nice Dean Martin, don't cha think? I love a man who's all famous and stuff and still goes to grad school. How hot is that?

Galadriel was resplendent. Period. What else can you say about Cate Blanchett?


It's past one and I must sleeeeep. Love to you all and goodnight!

Well, of course I am!

What American accent do you have?
Created by Xavier on Memegen.net

Southern. Love it or hate it, your accent says you're probably from somewhere south of the Ohio River.

If you're not from the South, you probably were overanalyzing the questions. Take the quiz again but don't think so hard next time.

Take this quiz now - it's easy!

We're going to start with "cot" and "caught." When you say those words do they sound the same or different?

Same, no wait I mean different, maybe, a little bit different... Different Same

Note: This is set in modern day. For sbyte, who asked for this: ‘As Fëanor suspected would happen, Erestor made plain clothes look like a fashion statement. It wasn’t the cut of the cloth or expense of the outfit that caught the eye. It was the elf wearing it.’ I did not use the quote but I did use the idea.
Summary: Feanor finds Erestor fascinating.

~~

JUST LIKE NERDANEL

Feanor’s imagination was extremely good, but Erestor was better than even he’d thought anyone could be.

And he didn’t seem to know it. Or at least he pretended not to know.

Erestor was Nerdanel’s cousin and he was much like her – brilliant, beautiful and Erestor infuriated him almost as much as Nerdanel did. The only difference was the color of their hair. While his wife had fiery red hair, Erestor’s was the shiny black color of a raven’s wing.

Feanor signaled the waiter for another drink. “Give him another one of whatever he’s drinking.” He motioned toward Erestor.

The waiter grinned. “He already has three.”

Feanor groaned. He was on his own this time. He took a swallow from his glass and rose. He made his way over to Erestor’s table. He looked down at Erestor and smiled.

“Hello, Erestor.”

Erestor looked at him and raised an eyebrow. “What do you want?”

“May I sit?”

“I can’t stop you.”

“Why must you be so much like Nerdanel?”

“It’s what you like about me.”

“It’s not all I like.”

Erestor picked up one of the drinks and took a sip. “Tell me more, Feanor. Tell me much more.”

“Very well, then.”
