A friend would like to celebrate Hobbit Day this year and, as it falls a day after my birthday, I see this as a perfect excuse to extend the party. On the twenty-first of this month I will be making a trek down to Moscow to celebrate my twenty-ninth birthday with my girlfriend, my cousin, and my favorite twins. The celebration will span the weekend into the following Monday. We'll be going out to a Japanese restaurant, snagging a few drinks, playing Munchkin and other games, and enjoying a marathon of fighting girl anime. The rest of the time the plan is to relax, maybe do a little shopping, and, of course, celebrate Hobbit Day. My plan, and I shall run this by the weekend troopers, is to eat like hobbits (OFTEN! and dining on a menu of scrumptious cheeses, crispy bacon, hearty vegetables, bakery fresh bread, and nice hot tea), run around barefoot whenever possible, go on a quest (most likely to Lewiston), and have a reading from the Lord of the Rings or The Hobbit. Maybe we'll even adopt Hobbit personas for the day. If we do that, I demand to be Pippin. And I demand beer. Hobbit beer.

I wanna be Sam. Not Sam from the movies, he's a bully. I wanna be book Sam.
ReplyDeleteLOL alright. So Ash is Frodo; Hannah is Merry (since she's the last to claim one LOL); Bethy is Pippin; you are Sam; and I will be Bilbo and that means ya'll have to listen to me as your beloved patriarchal figure XD
