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

My Lazy Weekend


Well, here it is a Sunday evening, and what do I find myself doing? Hm, let me think... nothing! Which isn't very different than anything else I've done this weekend. On Friday, I came home, got into pajamas, and did nothing besides watch tv for the rest of the evening. And I watched the uncut edition of Pirates of the Caribbean on television, because my dad decided that he was going to give away both of our movies :( but... It was a heavenly evening! Then on Saturday I babysat for my parents in the afternoon and into the evening. They went and saw a movie, then got something to eat, and went to look at my brother's apartment, while I stayed home with my sisters and did absolutely Nada. I got to see the first hour or so of Troy, but then my mom called and said that we got a showing for our house scheduled last minute, so I had to shut if off and start cleaning our house. Then today we went to church, but my mom ended up getting sick, so we had to come home and cancel the showing!!! (I'm sure if you would've listened, you would've heard me growl!) But I'm as blessed as ever, and missing a movie won't kill me.
I guess I'd better go get my sisters up from their nap. My mom's asleep too, so we'll probably just let her sleep. So off I go!!!
