Fangirlyness abounds
Recently there was a con somewhere (I honestly have no idea) where Dominic Monaghan and Elijah Wood showed up. I was reading one person's story about Dom's Q&A and found this:
"While prepping for scary scenes in Lost he listens to Radiohead, The Verve, Carmina Burana."
Yeay, he's a Radiohead fan. *squee!*
One day, I will go to a LOTR con. Dammit. One day, I will be able to go to a LOTR con where all the hobbits are there.
Reading everyone's stories makes me mega jealous. Not so much that they saw the hobbits, actually. Just that they're such close friends. I have![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
undone27 on my flist, but I don't think she has any freaking clue who I am. It's odd....the fact is, I'm just not that involved in the fandom. Some of the hobbitfic authors know my name (like baylorsr, who has met some of her flist offline)...but it's a pretty small number...
I never thought I'd be slightly jealous of people who don't seem to leave the house very much.
I don't know....I mean, involved fans might get to talk online like crazy, and read lots of fic, and occasionally meet up at cons and whatnot...but how does that compare to doing stuff "in real life"? Like singing, or going out dancing, or working full-time? Playing the harp?
