the boyfriend brought home the Fellowship of the Rings dvd last week, but didn't tell me until Saturday. i didn't get to watch it.

his birthday was yesterday, and the entire weekend was taken up with various birthday events planned by family and some birthday shenanigans by his friends. all that, together with copious quantities of alchohol, left me nearly exhausted. i turned in a little early last night and actually slept the entire night through, something i rarely do.
