Actually, I overslept big time. Usually up at 6:00, but at 7:08, the alarm was going off, I was sound asleep. But, the 2nd alarm clock kicked in... one hungry cat. So, here I am.

That's a shame! I've never had that happen. And I changed my order from the really extended one with the bookends to the smaller version on Thursday, so I can't believe that they were out of stock.

Cancel that order and go buy one (you can do that if it hasn't shipped)

If it hasn't shipped, check to see what kind of shipment you have. They have this free one, but it takes 9 days. I opted for the 3 to 5 days, knowing it would take 2 if it came from the Kentucky warehouse. And it did!

Where are you located?

Environmental Sciences... From 40482: "Hey, Steve got "officially" accepted into the Environmental Science masters program today. He's been taking the required classes, but wasn't really in the program till now. He's a third of the way done. We're both pretty tickled!"

the 2nd alarm clock kicked in... one hungry cat.

The hungry cat is my 1st alarm. And she doesn't have a snooze button.

I think the store will be open at 8:00. (they don't have a recording that tells me! Dang.)

I wonder if I will buy the collector's set with the book ends... will I decide they are cheezy? - Or will I buy them?

Do you realize that one year ago today, I had never read The Hobbit and the Lord of the Rings. My friend would lend me her books around Thanksgiving.

I did read The Hobbit in 9th grade, where get this, Gollum actually freaked me out. I didn't like that character at all.

Now, I think he's so funny! Wicked, but funny!

I am so happy that I have been here with you in this grand part of your life!

One year ago today I think the reviews were starting to come in for FoTR... and ecurbh was posting a few of them a day!

I'm thinking about waiting until I hear from everyone if the dvd is any good, before buying it.

Not really.
