One ring to rule them all.

Yesterday Zooey and watched two and a half Lord of the Rings movies. Zooey has always hated them, complaining whenever Nadia and I suggested watching them, though she's never watched one all the way through. She falls asleep.

So yesterday (to my surprise) Zooey suggested I bring over the LOTR movies and we watch them.

We finished the first one. She really liked it! We started the second, but halfway through I had to leave. She started searching her house for her own copy of the movie, because she wanted to know what happens next.

Today we finished the second and watched the whole third. And she absolutely adores them now. Really, she thinks they're amazing (which they are).

When the third ended she said she wanted to watch them again. Like, wow.

Afterwards we skipped over to my place for dinner. When it started to get dark we walked to Tim Horton's, got some tea, and sat on the steps of our old elementary school.

Then we dished about our friends' relationships and watched bats play overhead.

Now, Zooey's sleeping over. We played video games in my basement and talking to friends on MSN for a while. Then I helped Zooey straighten her massively curly hair and now we're watching iCarly while I post this and she reads the Bell Jar. Zooey is way too amused by iCarly (she's giggling over her book).

Tomorrow morning we're heading to Kensington Market with a few friends. Our old, close friend, Charlotte, planned it and guilt tripped Zooey and I into going (we'd rather rewatch LOTR or chill in the park with tea).

So tomorrow we're in for a fun-filled day in Kensington Market, full of indie stores and burrito restaurants (which Charlotte's making us go to), with the whole gang (Charlotte, Zooey, Nadia, Thomas, and Jason (my boyfriend)).

Should be fun...(sarcasm) Zooey and I are going to try to convince them to detour into Chinatown.

Also, I've re-taken up crocheting. I know, a 17 year old who crochets, I'm a lame-ass, but I just do it when I watch TV and such. And Zooey's taking up knitting again, so I'm not alone. Right now I'm crocheting a scarf out of this beautiful, shiny purple wool.


We have to meet the others at Kennedy Station at 11:30, which means getting up at 8:00, getting ready, going to Zooey's so she can get ready, then taking the bus to the station to meet the group.

Joy.

PS. And now we're watching an old Frasier episode♥

PPS. Zooey thinks her and Sylvia Plath are exactly the same. They both hate children and don't believe in marriage :)
