Phooey, I had a whole response written to this, and LJ ate it. Oh, well. I shall reconstruct it from first principles. Probably the improved version.
In re your kind invitation with its seductive promises of Earl Grey, that would entail having a character. I'm currently at the stage of looking at the "create an account" screen and thinking, aargh, they want a username, what the hell am I going to call myself that is (a) not going to open me up to the righteous ridicule of LotR geeks the world over, and (b) not going to entail being Finduilas2895? And that's not even a character name. You may instantly divine that (a) I am overthinking this more than a tad, and (b) I have Issues.
I'll get there. Be patient. It's like trying to pet Ounce, I have to sneak up on it whistling gently and pretending I'm interested in the moons of Saturn.
