Sorry Doesn't Say Enough
Foolish Lilly

So here I am, crawling back with my tail between my legs...Sorry, Everybody. I've been a melodramatic, foolish, repetitive, attention-mongering, ....ack, well...bad girl lately.

Sorry, SORRY for my drama-queen foolery. No hard feelings, Pip..though perhaps I owe you the apology! It's just (and you'll forgive the lame excuse) of all times in the world for you to reprimand me it had to be the week my cat died! Perhaps I'm being a fool about it all, but any of you who have lost a well-loved pet can vouch for me and say, yeah, it's tough. But that's no real excuse for making a fool of myself with...aw, well. I only hope you all can forgive me.

And Galadriel didn't give Frodo her spot on the boat...Arwen did. Celeborn may have stayed behind, but not for long (I think!)

Also, and here's a bit of a far-fetched supposition, I've heard that in the movie Frodo is actually going to make it out of Shelob's Lair (in the book he just collapsed without ever exiting, didn't he?). Anyway, for maximum emotion and drama they say that after defeating Shelob Sam and Frodo hurry out of the lair, and as soon as they're out, Frodo is overcome by the spider's poison. This makes it possible for Sam to have more dramatic lines and for Frodo to have a few 'last words' wich are sure to be doozies! It's not entirely book-acurate, but I'm all for more heartwrenching emotion! I found a picture online of Frodo lying on the ground as if he'd fallen, looking helplessly up at [something]. At first I thought it was just a picture from a random scene...but there were COBWEBS on his shoulder! The scenery looked as though it were outside, so perhaps this supports the rumor...or not. We'll just have to see.

Repentantly yours.
