He told me enthusiastically. For weeks I've been hearing, "On December first..." this and "On December first..." that. December first was going to be heralded as a day to end all days in our house. Why? Well, isn't it obvious? Lord of the Rings Online was issuing it's upgrade.

"On December first..."
I began to tune him out. Don't get me wrong. I love my geeks to the fullest extent possible, but after nearly fifteen years of living w/ the eldest geek and surviving another thirteen with the younger, I've learned to tune the two of them out. Or ban the activity in my presence. That was an absolute necessity when they obsessed over Naruto together...the japanese version with the high awful female squeaky whiny voices. I didn't have to understand Japanese to know they were annoying. According to the guys, "the dubbed "American" version was just no good".
So now that my interest was piqued, I asked, "A goat?"
"Yeah. A goat. It can go into the Mines of Moria. I can't take a horse there, but I can ride a goat."
Ok then. So glad I asked. At least, he's not bringing home a real goat or something goat related. I never know with that one.
Thank goodness for small mercies.
