Falling asleep thinking about things in very bad Finnish. Well... Finnish/English hybrid.

I second that. Now that most Downers are on Facebook, the assigned to Mordor/the Shire threads have been neglected. It makes me sad - even though I admit I've done little to remedy the situation.

I assign this adorable little wolf cub, who's keeping me from virtual wolvery these days:
House-training him, on the other hand, goes to Orthanc. (And no, Mith, he's not available for chinese cooking!)

Oh Pitchwife, I am not so bad!!! I may be mainly a cat person but I do like nice dogs.. in fact I am thinking of getting one when I have settled somewhere.
This is the breed of dog we traditionally keep in my family but they are not cat compatible so it may have to be something else....

They are very strong willed... "head of a lamb, heart of a lion"
Anyhow I assign spring flowers emerging, going somewhere you have always wanted to visit, and finding something you thought was lost (even though it was where it should be and where you had already looked, leading you to think you were losing your marbles).

When you can't think of anything at all to assign to the "Mordor" thread...
Or when RL doesn't provide you with anything such!

Galadriel that is very wise. My mother used to say one should be grateful for every uneventful day and when I was young I thought a dull life was a strange thing to show gratitude for, then when life started getting eventful in a bad way I realised how right she was. Like that Chinese curse "May you live in interesting times".
And while I am here I will assign that blessed combination of black coffee and a really good farm shop bacon sandwich. I may have to have a second breakfast...

Hmmm. Tolkien's works (obviously!) and finding other people in real life who read them. People who speak one of the Eldarin languages, whose illustrious ranks I hope to join someday.
Kittens!!! (Or at least cats that look like kittens. I have one that never did get around to growing up.) |

Well it was possibly the only royal wedding attended by Ents.

Strawberries - fresh from the field - I went to the PYO this morning and got a huge punnet - and guzzled about half a pound before I got home...

That can go for any kind of berries (edible and good-tasting, that is)... Whenever I go berry-picking 2/3 go in my stomach... I once told my mother that she doesn't need to supply me with a container, because the best one is my mouth.

Pie. Homemade pie. Me and my mother made one out of rhubarb yesterday. It was delicious!
Summer. Daydreaming.

Food in general. When there's lots of it.
PD and PA days in school. I wish there were more of them. Today. Not yesterday, just today. UT. And the canon. Being in a good mood. Random posts that make me laugh.

Finally learning how to cook basic food that keeps me on my feet and provides me with necessary nourishment!
And chocolate shops. Always chocolate shops.

I assign the sex life of dwarves. You'd think we had already covered everything there was to say about it but turns out we haven't, as last night proved. Both Lommy and I went to our respective classes very tired. Yes, we like dwarves better than food.

People who you don't know that see a copy of UT in your hand and say, "Do you also read Tolkien?" I wish such occurances happened more often.

Because my character in the RPG we're playing is a dwarf. I have no idea why our chats about him almost always turn to sex even though it could be argued that the sex life of dwarves is an oxymoron. Either way it's fun.

Having working heat in your car and nice warm gloves.
Nerdy friends. Oranges and almonds. Finding pretty clothes. Good days.

I assign being done, done, DONE with a project on a politician. It is so relieving.

If I had to assign being done on a project, I would choose a Maths or Chemistry project.

And, since I'm here, I assign a lab that I will do in the near future. My hypothesis is that the school will be demolished by the end of it. (Explanation: it involves more toxic substances and "dangerous" reactions than any other lab we've had so far, and when there are 20 pairs of students who think they know what they are doing messing around with them.......yeah.)
