Let's pretend it's yesterday...

...because I was sidetracked with reinventing mermaids.

It's yesterday's news, at least.

There was a spider in my bathtub this morning. This one was trifling and little, but it was imprisoned on a bench between a glass and a piece of paper. My priorities are clearly defined, in this instance - spider leaves bathtub, but having bath (complete with vanilla bubble bath, yay!) comes before throwing spider outside.

Maybe that'll make it think twice. Not particularly likely, since they expect for it to be rainy here for a few days yet. Grr.

My other big item of news is that I've officially decided pinball is electronic crack on skinny steel legs. Today, I was again playing the Lord of the Rings pinball machine, and had the oddest thought from some of the samples they use - specifically:

Legolas: "You have my bow!"
Gimli: "You have my axe!"

And what does this make me imagine? The nine of them, forming a band possibly called The Fellowship of the Rock.

So, we have Gimli on a guitar, and Legolas with a violin. This leaves seven more... and I open the floor for discussion on Middle-Earth's newest band. Let's not worry about anachronism too much, here.

I'm not particularly sure, since LotR isn't very troll-friendly.

By the way, you've now left me with a mental image of someone shouting "Helllloooooo Miiinaaas Mooorguuul!"

Of course, I immmediately saw Mick Jagger up on stage, all set to do "Sympathy for the Devil". And that's not just because the Stones were back in Boston this weekend and they were all the radio was playing.

For your spider problem I offer you the 'Orrible 'Ooo and "Boris the Spider".
