Realization: HOBBITS

[mijan]

The wonderful and amazing hazelhawthorne pointed out a simple fact to me today:

Hobbits only reach adulthood at the age of 33.

I am a Hobbit.  (See icon for reference.)  Therefore, I am still an adolescent. 

CRISIS AVERTED!

Now, I need to go find second breakfast. 

:D

Hooray!

Myself, being more of an SF geek, have decided to ward off Being Old by counting my age in Martian years (I'm still a teenager!)

[mijan.livejournal.com]

Martian years would work beautifully, too. :D

HA!! Ha ha ha ha!!! :) Your friend rocks.

[mijan.livejournal.com]

Yeah, she does. :D

[primroseburrows.livejournal.com]

I like this line of reasoning a lot. That makes me, liek, a young adult.

[mijan.livejournal.com]

Precisely! :D

[themostepotente.livejournal.com]

OMG you make the awesomest Frodo!

[mijan.livejournal.com]

Hahaha... you've never seen my Frodo cosplay before? :D

[themostepotente.livejournal.com]

No never! And I must buy you a birthday drink at DC!

And... YAY DRINK! Bourbon?

[themostepotente.livejournal.com]

Most. Awesome. Hobbit. Ever.

And yes, if bourbon is what you desire....

[mijan.livejournal.com]

Heee! Hobbit!

And yes, bourbon is always desired. I'm finishing off a bit of Blanton's single-barrel, small-batch Kentucky bourbon right now. :D

how many times have I commented "best post ever" to you...

I'm doing it again.

[mijan.livejournal.com]

Well, I can't help it - I'm just that awesome. *wink*

Thanks!

I hope you continue to act in an adolescent manner whenever you wish, well past the age of eleventy-one.

[nuclearsugars.livejournal.com]

I totally support this line of thinking. :D

I always wondered why the main hobbits didn't seem to have jobs or responsibilities, that makes sense now. I've never been that into LOTR, but I have always liked the whole hobbit aspect. Adorable pocket-sized men that do nothing but eat and cuddle with each other? I'm there.

Ah! Bloody Brilliant! I wish I could do that, but according to hobbit society, I am well beyond the "Of Age" point by two years. Damn! Ah well, Bilbo went off and had an adventure and then decided: to hell with what everyone else thinks, so maybe I'll just do that, too. Hugs you! Have fun at Dragon Con, darling.

Both I and my husband think you are adorable.

For future reference, I reach Hobbit adulthood at the end of this month.

Cue existential crisis.

[mijan.livejournal.com]

I'll buy you a pint, and we can dance on the table together! :D

*is adorable*

Happy birthday, sweetie! I, personally, am looking forward to the age Frodo was when he actually started his quest.

[mijan.livejournal.com]

Heeee. Frodo is awesome at any age, as are you. ♥

[nightshadow-t2.livejournal.com]

You have awesome friends. :)

Also, the movie Flipper that Elijah Wood played in is coming on tonight on the Hallmark channel I think.

[mijan.livejournal.com]

I do indeed have awesome friends. :D

Haha... I actually never saw the new Flipper movie, even though I watched that show all the time as a kid.

[nightshadow-t2.livejournal.com]

My only complaint about the movie is that Sharks do not growl and they do not groan or moan.

*smirk*

And, given that you are the most convincing hobbit I've ever had the pleasure of meeting, I must bow to your logic. And offer to be your food-getting lackey when next we meet. ;)

Re: *smirk*

[mijan.livejournal.com]

LOL - indeed, the logic is infallible. :D

Food-getting lackey? I could totally use one of those! You're hired!

Re: *smirk*

[killpurakat.livejournal.com]

Aye-aye, Sir Hobbit! Just so long as I am allowed to make multiple trips. I know you hobbits can have surprisingly large appetites, and lembas is hard to find outside of Elvish territories! ;)

[bob6n3-4.livejournal.com]

This is why I like you. ^_^

[mijan.livejournal.com]

Awww, not my stunning good looks? *wink*

*is Hobbit*

[cadet-jailbait.livejournal.com]

A) Happy late birthday!
B) Do we have to worry about being dragged of to isengard anytime soon? ;)
