Cheesed....

I am completely cheesed...I work myself into an early bedtime last night, getting the front porch cleaned and re-arranged...putting my terracotta pumpkins out, taking the bunnies in...pavin' the way for my annual September 1st Celebration...the celebration that includes not just celebrating that September, an Official Month of Autumn, is here but that, thank you, August is gone...and that I made it through one more time without requiring Professional Medical Help or Legal Representation...

only to get up early to have a cup o' coffee and monkey around with my template...deleting Summer Green and adding Light Goldenrod(EEDD82), Dark Goldenrod 2 (EEAD0E), a little BloodOrange (CC1100)...to find it is still August...

oh the Gods of Irony are sniggerin'...

well...I'm off to sulk now...Pumpkin Pixs and Stuff TOMORROW...

***Pumpkin Pixs update....well...to put it plainly...I lied...no pixs today or tomorrow and possibly Monday...DS & Fiancee borrowed my digital camera for their trip to Dragon Con...I've been to the Con a few times...If you are a fantasy or science fiction fan, then you must go to a Con some time...

Hubby & I took DS to the Con when he was in high school...mostly he was interested in the gaming competition (yes, the boy is good)...but we also took in some of the Tolkien Track...which, BTW, if you think you are a Tolkien Fanatic of the First Order, lemme tell ya'll...you ain't seen nothing until you attend a lecture on the Eleven Language of Tolkien's Word...and hear a room full of grown-ups burst into riotous applause over the Pronunction of a Vowel Sound based upon one of the appendices of the Silmarillion...it was like Tolkien Nerd Heaven...and I thoroughly enjoyed myself...

Of course, the Xena track had Ted Rami just across the hall...and they were hootin' and hollerin' it up too...both rooms packed to the gills, people linin' up around the perimeter of the rooms and stuffed into the doorways...people kept stoppin' to see just what Big Celeb was in our room...hah hah....

And then when the spy photos* came out...this was during the filming of Peter Jackson's LOTR movies...Mass Frenzy...what a blast...

So there...ya'll know...I'm a bit of a Nerd...

*spy photos largely consisted of a vague bump on the ground which was reported to be a part of Hobbiton...things like that....but it was still Great Fun...in fact, if air fare to New Zealand wasn't so outrageous, I'd probably take this tour...
