Ya'll forgot Doriath, Beleriand, and Gondolin. I vote for Gondolin. (Turin...yummy!)
--When you actually care about such things.
--When you spend half the afternoon writing fanfiction and the other half daydreaming about your 'Ranger.'
--When you hum The Road Goes Ever On while walking through the halls at school.
--When you assign a member of the Fellowship to each family member. There are actually nine of us! My dad is Gandalf, because he is "subtle and quick to anger" (but when he's not mad, he's an old softie); my mom is Boromir, because she's strong and likes jewelry (no Rings of Power though. Not that I've discovered anyway); my older sister is Aragorn, because she's just...like him (as in similar to him, not identical. For one thing, she's prettier [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img] ); my 15-year-old sis is Gimli, 'cause she's short and has a bad temper (but no beard); the eleven and ten-year-olds are Merry and Pippin--they're always together; my brother is Frodo, because he's crazy; my three-year-old sister is Sam, 'cause she's loyal and sweet; and I'm Legolas, NOT because I'm a rabid fangirl (heaven forfend!) but because I'm an elf and he was the only one left anyway.
That's all for now.
