Been trying to get back into writing this week -- I'm finally feeling creative again...must be the season *grin* I seem to get this way most fall/early winter. In past times I would start a new needlepoint project or maybe even dust off the spinning wheel and do some spinning (yep -- I reaaly have one, and yes, I do use it) but as the cold time progresses, my abilities to do fine motor control work goes out the door...so that brings me back to writing...

If nothing else, I can sit at the computer and type. When I smoked, I would take my note book and cigerettes and sit in a cafe somewhere drinking lots of coffee and write..write..write. Since I quit (almost 2 years ago -- go me) it's been harder to do (I think it had to do with the Pavlovian response of cigerette+coffee+cafe=writing), but I'm actually feeling the urge again.

In honor of that I've been dragging out the few things I have written over the past year and posting them here and to a few fan sites. The only stuff I've written and shared is from the HP fandom, though I have some personal observations/stories that came from going to a BDSM club with friends and hanging out. Perhaps if I get bold, I'll post them here as well.

THINGS TO DO WHILE WATCHING ROTK

Stand up halfway through the movie and yell loudly, "Wait... where the hell is Harry Potter?"

Block the entrance to the theater while screaming: "YOU SHALL NOT PASS!"

After the movie, say "Lucas could have done it better."

At some point during the movie, stand up and shout: "I must go! Middle Earth needs me!" and run and try to jump into the screen.

After bouncing off, return quietly to your seat.

Play a drinking game where you have to take a sip every time someone says: "The Ring." Point and laugh whenever someone dies.

Ask the nearest ring-nut if he thinks Gandalf went to Hogwarts.

Finish off every one of Elrond's lines with "Mr. Anderson."

When Aragorn is crowned king, stand up and at the top of your lungs sing, "And I did it.... MY way...!"

At the end, complain that Gollum was offensive to Ethiopians. -Talk like Gollum all through the movie. At the end, bite off someone's finger and fall down the stairs.

When Shelob appears, pinch the guy in front of you on the back of the neck.

Dress up as old ladies and reenact "The Battle of Helms Deep" Monty Python style. -When Denethor lights the fire, shout "Barbecue!"

Ask people around you who they think is the next "Terminator" sent from the Middle Earth of the future to assassinate Frodo Baggins.

In TTT when the Ents decide to march to war, stand up and shout "RUN FOREST, RUN!"

Every time someone kills an Orc, yell: "That's what I'm Tolkien about!" See how long it takes before you get kicked out of the theatre.

During a wide shot of a battle, inquire, "Where's Waldo?"

Talk loudly about how you heard that there is a single frame of a nude Elf hidden somewhere in the movie.

-Start an Orc sing-a-long.

Come to the premiere dressed as Frankenfurter and wander around looking terribly confused.

Remove the top off your drink, then proceed to light the straw on fire and tell people in the seats around you about a great battle that took place in your cup long ago.

When they go in the paths of the dead, wait for tense moment and shout, "I see dead people!"

-Imitate what you think a conversation between Gollum, Dobby and Yoda would be like.

-Release a jar of daddy-long-legs into the theater during the Shelob scene.

Wonder out loud if Aragorn is going to run for governor of California.

When Sam holds Frodo's hand (or otherwise), start singing, "The Ambiguously Gay Duo!"

When Shelob comes on, exclaim, "Man! Charlotte's really let herself go!"
