Victimization of the CG Cave Troll

Well it would appear that my first Lord of the Rings marathon was a success. We started at 10:30am (a little late due to my inability to wake up on time) and finished at 11:55pm. And that included breaks and watching a 1hr parody video that Sarah's friends made a couple years ago of Fellowship of the Ring.

There was lots of dozing off (in my case, I slept through most of TTT) and pigging out on nachos, Boston Pizza, and Sarah's mom's great lasagna & spinach salad. And of course eggnog. By the end of the night the basement looked like a crackhouse with all the blankets, food containers, dim-lighting, and half-crazy LOTR fangirls. We were getting pretty silly nearing the middle of the last DVD. Fan commentaries done by us would be hilarious, I'm thinking. We decided we'll start our own rock band and our first album will be called "The Victimization of the CG Cave Troll & Other Stories" due to the sad look on the Cave Troll of the first movie when the Fellowship kills him. He was just doing his job! And the poor Nazgul King got into a fight with his mom and needed someone to take his angst out on (hence attacking Minas Tirith).

And, of course, we can't not mention my highlight ditzy moment of the day. Sarah asked me to unplug her powercord from behind the coach. I had 2 choices in cords and I picked one. Wrong one. I unplugged the whole TV/DVD system. And we were about 30m from finishing too. Ha.
