Laughter , the best medicine.

" The Hobbit Dude "

(click link above for fantastic reading)

I think I have seriously injured myself. I think there is truth to the term "busted a gut". Peals of hysterical laughter have filled my house today. Bebe most likely believes his poor Mama to be insane. OK, here is the deal. I have been wallowing in the depths of "I just don't feel like it" since Thursday. Not to mention that this horrid change in weather is wreaking havoc on my sinuses. The pressure headache I have had makes me want to plunge chopsticks into my ears to relieve the pain. To boost my spirits, I have been reading "fanfic" on the internet, and I have once again started to read The Fellowship of The Ring. Now, my copy is almost as old as I am. I think I inhaled a 20 year old dust bunny or two yesterday when I opened the covers. It is a different experience, each time I read it.There are things I don't remember from the previous readings. And,there are DEFINITELY more things that I "get" this time, compared to when I first read it at age 10. (Before that, it was all about the animated version...anyone remembered getting nightmares after watching the animated ring-wraiths and Gollum?) OK! I ramble! ANYHOW. AS I was saying, I have been reading "fanfic" and came across this fantastic "Princess Bride" parody, populated with Tolkien characters. So far I am only 2 chapters in, and laughing my arse off. I am huge fan of the Princess Bride as well. PLEASE check it out (see link above). The authoress is brilliant.
