Feeling hobbity?

CrazySquirrel · 07-08-2005, 04:56 PM

Here is my question to enliven the moot a bit in this dull summer-time.

I’ve read somewhere (in this forum?) that Tolkien wrote that he “felt like a hobbit”.

I wonder how do YOU feel?

Does the hobbit point of view suit you?

Or you feel like WHAT?

Hobbity? Why yes, I think I do.

Very Hobbity! Good food, good drink, good friends, good stories! A smoke and drink and good conversation! and Rosie to welcome you home at the end of the day or journey! My friends, IT DOESN'T GET ANY BETTER THAN THIS in this phase of our existences!

Hehehe... A wizard, thinks he's wise, is crazy but doesn't act like it, old in mind no matter how young.

I don't feel hobbity at all. I want some adventure in life, the more the better. And I am interested in dark tales and bad guys.

Well, whenever I go barefoot in the yard I feel very Shire-ish....lol

Sometimes I feel hobbity, sometimes not. I just woke up so I'm quiet and like I want to be an elf, but sure. Hobbity is always good. Maybe I'll have a hobbit day though. That sounds good right now. I should clean my room, make myself lots of food (my appetite has been gone for a while, now it's back.^^) and read, probably.

Hobbity evening...

Last night we had a wonderful electrical storm in Northern NY at sunset, it was just beautiful...even the fireflys were buzzing around happily. I live on a 144 acre farm for the moment surrounded by pine and beech...my lawns are huge and have little islands of trees and shrubbery with flowers planted in pleasing places.....soooooooo....when I went and sat in an old red wagon to watch the sky-show I could almost imagine Gandalf and a host of hobbits under my large stately cedar...wonderful....wished the rest of you mooters could have been there...
