Damn my shortness and unelven like features! I'd have better luck at being a hobbit mellow.gif

ETA: Is it just me or does the mellow smiley not really look that mellow? He's more "WTF"?

Sigh.

If only I lived in Wellington, was 20cm taller, of *ahem* slender build, and looked like a beautiful elven type. I'd be there with upswept ears on.

Too short.
Too fat.
Wrong country.

BUT.... (and it is a big but - much like mine own)

I could save them a fortune on ears!

I actually have elf ears - and they are mine, growing out of the sides of my head... think of all the time I'd save them in make up each morning????

Yes I want to be an elf but they wouldn't have me, I'm sure they'd take me in my short scruffiness as hobbit though. Not a sexy pole dancing hobbit like Xena, just your garden variety hobbit laugh.gif
