It is a bit windy outside today. As in, hold on for dear life and don't drive too fast, or it will blow you off the road. Because, you know, there's windy, and then there's Windy City windy - which is a whole another level of howling madness, if you catch my drift. So we had a power outage at the office again, and they let us go home early. Yay! It can happen every day, as far as I'm concerned.:P
Also, if you're in need of a distraction and a good belly-laugh - not to mention a little nostalgic for the bygone days when LOTR FPS fandom was alive and kicking - I just found something that might brighten up your mood. Here's the link:

Yes, Author's Notes is the title of the story, and it's a relatively canon retelling of the Quest - except for the rampant insanity involving Aragorn's half-hearted attempts at a written record of the proceedings (as requested by Elrond), and his constant mental torment at the hands of a very moody, jealous, distracting and anal-retentive elven lover.:) Legolas in this fic is just... sooo gay. In more ways than one.:P I have barely started reading it, and I can't remember the last time I had such wicked fun with my OTP (and the other members of the Fellowship, who are all delightfully amusing here, I might add).
geale01, why were you hiding this treasure trove away from me?... LOL
So, the elf & ranger are making out against a tree somewhere in Lorien when they are interrupted by Haldir calling for them. Here's the ensuing dialogue:
In vain, Aragorn tried to arrange his appearance by swiping his hands over his heated body and running them through his hair. “How do I look?”
“Like someone I would like on top of me.”
The Man made a face. “Seriously.”
“You will do,” stated Legolas as he propelled Aragorn in the right direction back to the track. “Me. Later.”
YEAH. Exactly what I needed.:D
Btw, I just got an automated voicemail from the office (sent to all employees) saying that the power is back and all systems are up & running. Dammit. No extra paid vacation tomorrow, then.:P Better go to bed soon.:/
Oh, but we're having a Halloween pizza party tomorrow, so at least there'll be plenty of free food and a longer lunch break than usual. It could be worse, I guess.;)

Naaahhh... of course not.:P But I meant it in a good way. As in, graceful and refined and... perhaps just a little snotty.:D :D :D
Btw, I just reached the point of Gimli's "temporarily intensified" snoring. My sides HURT from all the gigglefits. Ahhh, the value of true friendship... *wheezes*
