lotr luvs

You know what makes me incredibly happy? It is that of all the posts I've made over the past few months (heck, even years) the one that got the most comments was the post about Figwit. Lotr-love! Lotr lives! Lotr luvs (as in pronounced with Karl Urban's accent before he went all la-de-da Hollywood)!

It made me feel warm and fuzzy to realise there were all sorts of others full of the nostalgia lump-in-the-throat out there, just like me, eager to chip in with memories of those great days.

Lovely. Truly so.

Soon I will post juicy morsels from Kristin Thompson's book on the Frodo franchise. I've finished it now. My eyes were glued to the page all the way.

LOTR love lives! So much so that I actually have a coffee date with a 24-year-old guy who read of my obsession on my MySpace page, messaged me, mostly to ensure that I was well-acquainted with the extended DVD's; now, who knows what will happen! It's an amazing phenomenon!

Ack, rl invades fandom life! Um, and do people who are not rabid slashers actually watch all those endless hours of the duck pontificating about bigatures?

Wow.

Yes, apparently! Although that's a whole other kind of crazy!

We are so still here! I get the nostalgia lump-in-the-throat even though I never pulled back from the fandom at all.

You're the one person on my flist who did not pull back! You are truly amazing!
