The Two Towers- on the big screen

Jun 22, 2011 09:07

Quite to my surprise and delight, it turns out that a local theatre in Staunton is participating in the showing of the 3 LotR films on the big screen! One of my choir friends, the woman I sang the duet with last Sunday, treated me to the movie as well as dinner beforehand. It was so much fun! I was so caught up in the moment that I was thinking ( Read more... )

Three cheers for writing! And especially for Tolkien writing :)

Indeed! It's been too long. :)

Darling, I so thought of you last night, and your lovely gown, and I am delighted beyond anything to hear that you got to go last night, too ( ... )

You are so kind! I'm blushing!! :D I'll keep you posted about next week and see what transpires. I'll never forget your fabulous hobbit costume when you came to our Halloween party those years ago.

Congratulations on the weight loss! The Arwen coronation dress is indeed beautiful, and I'd love to see pictures of you in it.

Thank you for your thoughts! I've had the Lomelindi in my mind since Tuesday, thinking of us all together and many in costume for the films. What fun that was!

(((hugs)))

I'm glad to hear that you met a nice person, even if she seemed a bit alarmed! I'll give some thought this weekend about going to RotK; it's my least favorite of all the movies, so I'm rethinking whether I'll go or not. But it could be fun.

reading is so much fun,I hope you can help the girl get some tricks to help her love it.
sometimes people just haven't found something they like to read - I know 'the infinite wisdom" of our NA education system almost killed my love of reading with the shittyass books they made us read in literature class.

Well, she brought two books with her and we did get some reading done. I think she was enjoying herself, and we did cover some new vocabulary. I'll be doing this throughout the summer, so I have a lot of hopes for her.

Egads! That's a near travesty! I don't really remember much of what I read in middle school, aside from The Diary of Anne Frank in 7th grade- by high school I remember liking most of what we read, though I read so much independently.
