Happy Biblo and Frodo's Birthday!

Happy Bilbo and Frodo's birthday! I am clinging on by a thread to even remembering that it is today, and the day will come when I am so overwhelmed by the rushing succession of things past my life, like an elf watching the seasons fly by as a shift in colors, that it will go by me completely, but it hasn't happened yet.

I wish I had time to think of Middle-earth. I wish I had time to (re)read much more of the lore of Middle-earth, wish I could get out for a walk in a nice place that feels like Middle-earth, but for now, this remembrance is what I've got.

Let's see, in the great crossover 'verse in my mind, Frodo ought to be 89 today if I have it right. Imagine.
