What ho, everyone. My, what a week this has been. I'm so glad it's an abbreviated one. Got today off (which I squandered), tomorrow is inservice (no kids, woohoo!), and Monday is a holiday. Let us all give a great big huzzah for long weekends!

To further brighten my week, I received a lovely package in the mail from [livejournal.com profile] writerlibrarian containing the Éowyn/Éomer CD insert card from TTT soundtrack (whee! so much pretty) and a box of Canadian maple tea (which I've never had before, and is quite yummy). Thanks so much, Chantal! *hugs*

Speaking of LOTR, it seems Imrahil was in RotK after all. One of the Decipher game cards
says so, anyway. I remember this guy, mostly because he's a Kiwi actor who's been in several Hercules and Xena eps, and I had been wondering if he was someone important in the movie. However, neither IMDB nor TORN actually lists Imrahil as a character. After much googling, I finally tracked down the actor - David Aston, who is listed on IMDB, but as "Gondorian Soldier 3". He was Tyldus in the Xena ep "Hooves and Harlots", and I know he was in Hercules but I can't find any listings for it and can't remember which ep it was. It's driving me crazy so if anyone recalls his other roles, drop me a line.

Anyway, Imrahil. Cool. He even got a few lines, though it sucks that one has to go to so much effort to figure out who his character is. I wonder what other minor characters were in the movie without being acknowledged.

Much playing with Photoshop today, thus, iconage. Free to a good home.




ETA: I've noticed that Photobucket, while a great place to store and link to pics, tends to make some of the text on my icons a bit fuzzy. If anyone wants the second Rebecca icon, I'll have a cleaner version up on my icon page.

Also, GIP, inspired by new friend [livejournal.com profile] circe_tigana. I know, I know. Handbasket. At least there's a pretty view.

He was supposed to be Imrahil? But wasn't he "Denethor was right, we're all doooomed!" guy? That doesn't seem very Imrahil-like. Huh. Maybe I'm glad they never named him onscreen.

Shiny icons! And definitely, thank goodness the week is almost over. I thought the end would never get here.

Yeah, he didn't seem very optimistic, did he. Maybe he'll have more, and better, screen time in the extended.

Thank you! And it's good to have you back from the land of computer problems. Btw, did you see tonight's WaT? Eep! I'm filled with the Danny-love tonight :)

Ah, good point. Somewhere in the mountains of extra footage he must have a scene or too. At least I hope so. Well, I'll keep my fingers crossed! *g*

Argh, my computer. So, so evil. And now I'm even more behind... But I'm right there with you on the Danny-love! The little tear! Eeeee! I'm busily typing up my post on it now, so hopefully TSCITW will behave for a few more minutes at least.

I can't wait to sift through those mounds and squee over all the bits that got left out. November seems so far away...

Eep, yes! I was like "OMG, is he crying? He is! He's so cool!". Rather a dark ep, but that bit got me all excited. And he and Martin got to work together some, so all was good. Looking forward to reading your post :)

Which, the Denethor? Thanks, but it was all [livejournal.com profile] mimesere's doing. She's fabulous. *g*

I don't remember him from the book or the movie, but, i guess i'm getting old and losing my memory.

The cards are way cool, though.

I barely remember him from the book either. I've never played those card games (was more of an RPG girl), but they look cool. I might have to pick up a package if I see them in stores.

Ooh, definitely very pretty pictures! Great job, Shiva.

Btw, still in the process of burning your CDs. I annoyingly found out my laptop won't let me make direct copies (or at least, I can't figure the program out), but I can record them into MP3s and then burn new CDs. So we're getting there :) Will have your package in the mail soon.

That's okay. Not a big rush or anything. I have plenty here to keep me occupied for now. :-) At least I finally got around to updating my own LJ! That in itself filled up most of my day yesterday...
