Monday... and quite a special birthday....

[cairistiona7]

I raise my own toast to Professor Tolkien, in thanks for the astonishing amount of joy and friendship he has brought to my life.  Amazing, that, isn't it??   Many authors create wonderful stories, but Tolkien created community, both for his characters and more importantly, for his fans.

*raises glass of miruvor high*   To you, Professor Tolkien,

Praise him with great praise!

Hear, hear!

Happy Birthday, Professor! :D

Perfect pictures for the occasion.

I wish the Aragorn one wasn't really about such a somber occasion, but hey, it's a picture of him making a toast, so we'll pretend it's not "to the victorious dead" and instead it's, "To the Professor!"

Oh yes, you are so right. This fandom brought so many great friends to my life, and I am really grateful for that. :) *hugs*

[cairistiona7]

As am I! *hugs back*

I have my glass of autumn oak-leaf wine prepared for the toast - t seems very Elven, or possibly very hobbitish - or, come to think of it, the sort of thing the Dunedain might brew.

A most appropriate libation, indeed. *clinks glass*

Perfect pictures to celebrate Tolkien's birthday.

Hear, hear, Cairistiona.

To the Professor! Muito Obrigada.
