Thank you Entert.inmentWe.kly for brightening up the 300th rainy drisly July summer day with great news: TheHobbit has a release date. As we are limited with our lovely AFN AmericanMil cable channel(s) we don't get to see any American television commercials, which includes movie trailers, unless we are in the actual theatre watching a movie. This leaves some of us addicts in the dark about things like epic-release-dates, short of constantly go.ogling/chasing RSS feeds. Let's face it, I can sometimes barely remember to pay the bills and feed the cat and dry my laundry and do the dishes and check on the MIL and mail the hubby care packages and call the states and work. Chasing down odd info like movie times aren't always the top of my game. However, I will have to admit to seeingHP7.2 twice in two weeks, but I can blame my friends for that.
Because Peter Jackson is a big fat, although currently much thinner, tease the Hobbit is actually getting split into two movies. The first will be released in December. Merry Christmas and welcome home MrD! He will return from deployment and get drug by the ear to see it. Good thing he is also an addict.
P.S. In case you were wondering my hobbit name is Pearl Gamwich. [Which was also my grandmother's middle name, thank you for asking.] Or thebloggerformerlyknownasDarla.
Gamwich, ropers and ancestors of the Gammidge family.
You share your Christian name Pearl, with a Pearl (Took): (2975–?) was the eldest sister of Peregrin "Pippin" Took. She also had two sisters named Pimpernel and Pervinca. Pearl probably died sometime before the year 63 of the Fourth Age when Pippin left the Shire to live in Gondor.

I think this information is a little ironic since the kitten was dubbed Pippin in May. I suppose I should also tell Buckwheat and Alfalfa that on occasion they will also be referred to as Pimpernel and Pervinca.
