valis2: Stone lion face (chicken foot)

I don't like bringing in anything personal to my cubicle at work; it's pretty much undecorated. However, my sister has a LotR rip-a-day calendar, and she leaves all of the cute guy days on my desk. I tack them to the teeny work board next to my computer, along with my schedule and the phone list.

Today I realized that I have waaaay too many Aragorns, Boromirs, Legolai, Faramirs, and Haldirs, and I set about the brutal task of reducing them to a more manageable number. I kept all of the Faramirs (of course!), decimated the Legolai, kept both Haldirs, and took down all of the Aragorns. I rearranged them until I had a pleasing display.

After I was done, I put the last push pin in place, sat back...

...and felt like I needed to click a save button.

Yes. You read that right. I thought I needed to "save" my RL cork board arrangement.

That really made me crack up.

He is absolutely delicious. I love David Wenham in that role; he's so...yum.

"Saving" your corkboard arrangement - priceless! (hm, plural form "Haldiri", maybe?)

Isn't it hilarious? I do need help.

Ooh...Haldiri! I wouldn't turn down a nice assortment of Haldiri, that's for certain. ;)

I've written HTML tags into letters to my grandmother without even thinking twice about it. Yes, these are handwritten letters I'm talking about.

Tee hee hee! I used to have the page-a-day LOTR calendar. Ohhh, for the Faramir days. Even though I find Elijah Wood hobbitly hot, David is teh hottnezz as Faramir. I was so glad to see they put back the Healing scenes in the Extended edition. I swoon in his presence!

Every so often I have a RL moment like that, so it's not just you! Yours is just funnier. :)

bwahahaha! That's hilarious! I've done it in emails before, but wow, handwritten letters? Hard core.

The Faramir days, while few, are definitely the standouts. He is quite tasty! There is one, where he's in this pose of extreme jeopardy (the situation, not the game show, hee!) and it's damned hot, let me tell you.

Glad that I'm not alone in my attempt to computerize my entire life!

I get that feeling often, LOL.When I play scrabble with a local group, I wonder why the computer is not checking the words !

I have that page a day calender too and love the Aragorn pictures.

I am glad you saved the Faramirs, but what happened to your Boromirs? :-(
When I was no where near a computer, I have reached for a mouse when I wanted to write something down. *head desk*

*snort* That would be so helpful! I'd just love to have a grammar check in my head, that would be amazing.

I'm afraid that both Boromirs found the wastebin. The pictures were not flattering, and I just had to make an executive decision. *giggles*

*lol* In roleplay you would call that immersion. In RL - I think your reality check just bounced!
