The Orlando Bloom Story
Before I head out for the weekend – I thought I’d post the Orlando Story.
Most of you already know it – oh, the shame. Anyway, some people have been asking about the few references I made so here it is. Sad, but true.

legolas and leia would be sweet together.
that statement was my first insight into your geeky-goodness! that was a good day.
i linked my sister to your above linked linkage. she is, as we all refer to her” the oldest teeny bopper” so she will read that and have some phenomenal things to slide in to my head by way of my hearing holes.
i would love to see this narrative fleshed out as a short story/novel. it would be a tough write, but goddamn, what a tale it would be. dont know many people that would be that open to the idea of cutting open their life like that though

Hmm i knew i didnt like Bloom for some reason, i just thought it was his acting. I bet i could kick his ass with a sword too, just like your old fencing instructor, and Jeffy, of course, to bet Jeffy all i had to do was hold out the foil,or,saber, and he would impale himself on it. Jeffy , i love ya bud ( in a totally non-homo way((sorry to get your hopes up))) but you were not the most coordinated teenager.

Erisian,
I thought about the fleshing out into a real story, but it was suprisingly difficult to get through this “short” version. I laughed a lot and even teared up a bit. It’s still a little bit emotional I guess. But when I’m further away from it, I’ll probably try again.

Chadely, Dearest, of course you could beat him.

Hello, Cutaia!
Welcome to the BlissQuest!
I’m glad you liked it
I was a little nervous about putting it out there cuz, well - it’s so pathetic. But it it’s true so - I guess it needs to be done

That’s the best part, though. Too many “bloggers” out there tend to shy away from anything they’d consider too personal or embarrassing, or they kind of gloss over those moments. I never really felt like the story came off as pathetic, though…especially inside the context of your blog as a whole.
In any case, yes…it needed to be done.
