So... I got to see the Hobbit yesterday! That's right, America, yesterday. And it was fabulous. I'm just bummed that I have to wait so long to see the next part. I won't spoil it though. Besides, if you really want to know, just read the dang book. I loved Bilbo's various facial expressions, though. You'll see. I hope...
I do have to actually pack my bags, though not for the Misty Mountains. That would be exceedingly awesome, but alas, I'm just going to Kiel with my choir. I've had a cough for almost two weeks now, and I hope I'll be able to sing. I don't think it helped that I had to take care of a sick child yesterday. And what do three-year-olds want to do when they're sick? Cuddle. Dang it. I can't get even more sick. Not with the concert and with my mom coming Monday.
I got a letter from my friend who's serving a mission in Mexico today. They must use actual snails to deliver snail mail, because the letter is from the end of September. It's still fantastic getting real mail, no matter how late it is!
Jilli learned the word "no" finally. And man, does she love it. Her sister asked her a bunch of questions auf Deutsch, to each of which she gave a resounding "NO!" accompanied by a huge grin.
I've discovered a new flavor chocolate bar. Ritter Sport came out with a Gebrannte Mandeln one. Wow. It's realllllly hard not to eat it. Chocolate isn't so good for my stupid cough, as I've discovered lately. The Ritter Sport people just need to discover peanut butter, and then life will be complete.
By the way, the soundtrack for the Hobbit is also splendid. I'm just glad I could see the movie in the theater. I was too young when Lord of the Rings came out, and I was super jealous of my brother when he got to see Return of the King in the theater. I read the books in eighth grade so Mom would let me watch the movies. I've been a fan ever since.
