Um, "the shiny?" Kinda confused...but again, what's new. :)

you may have the one ring. and you're welcome to go psychotic!Boromir, provided one of the following is true: (a) you stay where you are; or (b) you look like mr. sean bean.

in the cold light of not-affected-by-codeine, i'm not bonkers about the text on that one, though. do you like this version better? (because i do.)

approximately, "the shiny" refers to a focus on the stuff itself, the stuff of which one is a fan, while "the meta" refers to a focus on how one is a fan.

i think. seriously, there's a whole discussion of it over at [livejournal.com profile] mommybird's, and she's been meta-blogged, even (which is sort of ironic [g]).

*thud* That's gorgeous! *smooch* Thank you! Sorry it took me so long to get back to you. I'm up in New Hampshire at my best friend's place.

Wait ... I have to stay where I am? Who's going to cook my grandfather's breakfast tomorrow? Kidding, kidding. :)

Thanks again! You ROCK.
