'Twas brillig, and the slithy toves

Did gyre and gimble in the wabe;
All mimsy were the borogoves,
And the mome raths outgrabe.

"Beware the Jabberwock, my son!
The jaws that bite, the claws that catch!
Beware the Jubjub bird, and shun
The frumious Bandersnatch!"

He took his vorpal sword in hand:
Long time the manxome foe he sought—
So rested he by the Tumtum tree,
And stood awhile in thought.

And as in uffish thought he stood,
The Jabberwock, with eyes of flame,
Came whiffling through the tulgey wood,
And burbled as it came!

One, two! One, two! and through and through
The vorpal blade went snicker-snack!
He left it dead, and with its head
He went galumphing back.

"And hast thou slain the Jabberwock?
Come to my arms, my beamish boy!
O frabjous day! Callooh! Callay!"
He chortled in his joy.

'Twas brillig, and the slithy toves
Did gyre and gimble in the wabe;
All mimsy were the borogoves,
And the mome raths outgrabe.

'Jabberwocky', by Lewis Carrol (writer of Alice's Adventures in Wonderland)

I memorized that, and now I'm driving my family nuts by reciting it over and over.
I watched 'Alice in Wonderland' (the newish one with Jonny Depp as the Mad Hatter) for my birthday with bookblogger and my neighbor. It was awesome.

I love the Mad Hatter. His hat is awesome. ("farewell... sweet... hat...")

Cheshire's epic. Totally epic.

I  L. O. V. E. Alice's clothes. I love 'em.

 

 "*sigh* the whole world is falling to pieces and Cheshire is off his tea..."

"Why is a raven like a writing desk?"

Cause they both start with 'R'! Duuuuh!

So... yeah.

I was gonna say a million other stuff, but I've forgotten it and I don't have time anyway.

So bi!
