Whoohoo! A picture of Middle Earth! Well, of people in Middle Earth. Right-y, in the back, we have King Thranduil of the Mirkwood Elves, and his un-named wife (see closeup here). At least I can’t remember her name and I’m really too exhausted to look it up right now. The next couple, further to the right, are Esgalwen’s parents… can’t remember if I gave them names, either, and I probably didn’t write them down. Probably I didn’t give them names, as she would call them father and mother. Right in front of them are the three sisters, with the youngest on the left, with a mischievous look on her cute face, and then the gentle eldest, and then Esgalwen the shy middle on the right. She hasn’t gotten her necklace yet, either. The eldest’s head is too big. Esgalwen actually looks pretty good in this picture.
In front are Legolas and Hano. Hano is the elder brother of the girls, and an archer under Legolas, who is an archery captain. Doesn’t that make sense? Various details are off, like ears on everyone, Legolas’ right arm, etc. Still, I mostly like this picture.
I’ve started playing Star Wars: KOTOR, and I got to the Sith planet Korriban, which is the last place with an unresearched Star Map, but I found out I need to have a few conversations with Carth before we find out that I’m actually named Revan (not Serena Azure, as I named myself) so that I trigger the Jordo conversation with Carth so that the Dustil quest is triggered. I have no idea how it will work, because I reloaded from Tatooine (good golly, those Sand People are tough. Not looking forward to Darth Bandon, either. He’s tougher than Darth Malek!) and got the Jordo conversation, but I haven’t even bought HK yet. I should do that. Malek is a meatbag. : D Yay funny HK-47. Right now my brother’s playing Pazaak with folks in Taris cantinas, though.
Dad’s loading up his iPod! He likes to turn the volume up loud and pretend to be an unruly teenager. It’s really quite disturbing, especially when he uses his watch to adjust the volume. He’s amazed at how much you really can fit into 4G. Mom’s thinking of getting one… maybe a 2B Shuffle, or maybe buying mine off me and letting me buy an 8G so I can fit all my ‘fun’ music AND all the classical music I love but don’t listen to quite as often, like Beethoven’s Symphonies. Or Mozart’s Symphonies, even better. Oh, and I should put the Rach3 on my computer. I heard it on the radio the other day and remembered that I like it. I should also try to tell the difference between the Rach2 1st mvmt and the Grieg… did I say that already? Oh well, right now I’m listening to Mariam. I’m going to get her other CD sometime.
Quiz/Poll Questions: D’you think it’s worth using Javascript to keep the sidebar links updated? How about the category buttons? Who uses those? Would you miss them if I took them away? How about if I just put a link to the specific category page? Is there any way to update the linking mechanism so that for picture n, the next button will automatically link to picture n+1?
E-mail me the answers to any or all of these questions elfinessewebsiteathotmaildotcom! No hurry; you won’t see any of the proposed changes for many months. I work slowly.
This is a picture of more of those Mirkwoodian elves, the tree elves, I suppose. I had trouble drawing in scale, so that’s why the ones in the back are bigger than the ones in front. At least the ones who are biggest are the most important.
