All that is gold does not glitter

Not all those who wander are lost;

The old that is strong does not wither,

Deep roots are not reached by the frost.

So lately I've gotten back into a Lord of The Rings kick and I read all three novels (I forgot about The Hobbit, but since that's really a separate story I get away with reading it last) and now am reading The Hobbit.

During Spring Break me and several of my dudes will all watch the extended versions of LOTR--all the movies, in a row. And it will be amazing.

So yeah, lots and lots of geeking out about LOTR.

Me and Mitzi also decided that Saruman looks like he should be an 80's death metal rock god. And he looks like he'd be the bassist. Gandalf would do wicked Dream Theater-esque guitar solos while screamsinging and the Balrog would be on the drums! It would be the most epic thing ever. I can just picture it. Right on the cover of The Rolling Stone: "THE WIZARDS RELEASE THEIR NEW HIT ALBUM ENTITLED 'YOU SHALL NOT PASS!'" I would definitely buy that album.

More geeking out:

I've read Watchmen a thousand times and really want to go see the movie, which I will during Spring Break.

Even more:

X-Men Origins is coming out around May. Gotta see that one too. Apparently it has Gambit in it (finally). Awesome.

Last two weeks:

Not much. I have to finish my science project for bio all this weekend, and I was very stressed about it throughout last week since I didn't start anything, but I've got most of it done yesterday and today and now it's not such a big deal. All I have to do is write the conclusion and all is well.

Food-wise:

I am all of the sudden very hungry.

From the ashes a fire shall be woken,

A light from the shadows shall spring;

Renewed be blade that was broken,

The crownless again shall be king.
