Two Towers improved for me on the second viewing. I think now that I know what happens on film to Faramir, I can enjoy it for being a movie and not for desecrating the memory of one the few folk who never wanted the ring. :)

And Billy Boyd is still pretty darn cute :) After all, Pippin is a very light-hearted character; my son Chris observed that if I like Pippin because he's funny, I must be glad I married someone like Rob. Hehehe!

My infatuation with funny guys probably goes back to childhood, where I had a crush on Gilligan :) I thought he was so cute and silly! Later on, I developed a crush on Peter Tork from the Monkees; note that he was the group's comic relief. An interesting trend.

Christmas was quite nice. The boys were in awe of my engineering prowess as they admired our colossus. Rob gave me a digital camera (and as soon as I finish reading the 300 page instruction manual, I'll get to use it) and a Kitchen Aid mixer. I'm very excited; I've always wanted one of those mixers! Yay! Now I need to come up with recipes that will use it. Rob was happy to get the first season of Babylon 5.

I hope every one of you had a lovely day, too.
