I sit beside the fire and think of all that I have seen, of meadow-flowers and butterflies In summers that have been; Of yellow leaves and gossamer in autumns that there were, with morning mist and silver sun and wind upon my hair. I sit beside the fire and think of how the world will be when winter comes without a spring that I shall ever see. For still there are so many things that I have never seen: in every wood in every spring there is a different green. I sit beside the fire and think of people long ago, and people who will see a world that I shall never know. But all the while I sit and think of times there were before, I listen for returning feet and voices at the door.

-J.R.R. Tolkien, from The Fellowship of the Ring

Ughhh...


Well, today wasn't all that fun. I've been sick all day (still) and for the better part of the day, I've been laying in my bed, watching movies. Now, since the movies were Lord of the Rings, everything was peachy, but when they were over, I had to go back and face the fact that I felt terrible!

I'm not going to school again tomorrow, which is why I'm posting at eleven o'clock at night! In fact, now it seems that Kiara has what I got. She and I were left at home tonight while everyone else went out to eat, but we had loads of fun. When everyone left, we had 'dinner' (I call it dinner, but neither one of us ate very much) and then we laid down some blankets on our living room floor, turned down the lights, and watched a movie. Kiara seemed to enjoy this part of the evening, because she got to sit and eat her Skittles, share popcorn with me, have her sippy cup out in the living room, and watch movies with her 'Boo' (thats what my little sisters call me... and my mom when I've done something really bad to make her aggervated!).

While I was laying down, watching the 3rd LOTR movie, Return of the King, my mom was in my room, working on the computer. At the very second to last scene, with Gandalf and Frodo leaving to sail into the Undying Lands, I started crying, and was laughed at by my mom. She thought it was rediculous that I like that story in the first place, and extremely crazy that I would cry over them! *Apparently, she doesn't realize their true, heart-breaking power :)*

Well, I believe I'll go and check out some of my other sites. I know this was a short post, but it's been an exremely un-fun day!
