Much better...
Not feeling well at all (food poisoning is not all that fun), I decided that watching the two LOTR DVDs that are currently out would be helpful. I watched the Fellowship's regular DVD, then thought, how stupid, I wanted to watch the extended version. However, that would involve getting up, interrupting the already running Fellowship DVD, and changing it to the extended version. So I waiting until it was over, and then put in the extended version. Although I curse Hollywood, yet compliment their marketing schemes for not distributing the extended Two Towers until November, I contended with the regular Two Towers just following the extended Fellowship. All in all, I think the 10 hours of LOTR helped immensely. I feel much better.
