NYC TTT Moot Part 1

[lavendertook]

Hi! I'm back from NYC where we went to see the TTT symphony, Fellowship! Musical parody of FotR, and a book signing with Doug Adams and Howard Shore. The musical was hilarious and my favorite of the events. The symphony was terrific and spot on and we had the perfect seats, but I had a creepy, annoying guy sitting next to me that ruined much of it for me, so it wasn't a great symphony/film experience for me this time. The signing was really nice, and Howard Shore talked about Frodo and Sam like he shipped them.




There were 3 pairs of hobbit dolls accompanying us and making sure we didn't get into any trouble.



And all these lovely people. Plus the vivacious grey_wonderer and her sweet friend T. who we didn't get to see enough of. Plus I got to talk on the phone with the delightful delux_vivens, though we didn't get the chance to meet up--next time. I still haven't finished reporting from the Sept RotK Moot and Ladysnaps Moot, so I'm going to finish up those before I do a full report of the NYC Moot, but I just wanted to give a prelude, say hi, and I hope I'll be keeping up better with everyone and posting a lot more now that moot season has passed.

I did, but I guess it fell into the in-between-conversation zone. But I know if you were sitting with us, you and Pan would have held him so I could have TAKEN HIS KNEECAPS OUT!!!! As it was, I did wind up giving his ankle a swift kick when my more polite pleas, escalating to motherly commands failed. He escalated bouncing his legs after the kick for a while--I think to prove that he wouldn't be chased out by a girl . . .then he left 2/3 in, having been chased out by a middle aged woman, or for his own reasons. But you can't really relax after something like that.

I miss you, too! *hugses*
