...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.

*resolves to keep broom close*

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.

Pippin and Merry as backing dancers/comic relief.

Sam as Mr. Frodo's personal assistant (he has to make sure that he gets his 500 brown M&Ms before the gig).

Frodo is kind of the front man, although he actually just holds his sword up to the microphone. Because who wouldn't want Sting on vocals?

I'm sorry, I couldn't help the pun

It is, however, established in print and on film that Pippin can *sing*.

"Mr. Frodo's not going anywhere without his brown M&Ms. 'Don't you let none of those orange ones in, Samwise Gamgee,' the old gaffer used to say."

And... there's no comment for that pun, unless he then takes Sting over to put the edge on guitar.

Maybe Pippin as a backing vocalist then.

You too with the punning?

That works.

And... um... yes.
