Well, only a couple of thousand posts to go to break 50k by weds....

Haven't caught up on the thread, but have we discussed the new trailer out? I got to see it when I came home from work. Looks phenomenal. I missed seeing the the ents walking, but I got to see one throwing a rock at Isengard.

Hope I didn't miss anyone!

I've been trying desperately to catch up before jumping back in, but I think I'll just have to do that as I have time.

First of all...two more days! Woo-hoooooo! I just hope it warms up a bit - with no pre-buying available, we're likely gonna be in line for quite a while. Last year we waited about two hours (theater didn't open until six thirty, and the movie started at seven), and this year it's going to be a much longer wait, I'll warrant. My younger siblings want to get in line by three or so and are already planning what they want to do while waiting.(So far it mostly seems to involve food...guess I'm not the only hobbit in the family?)

STILL haven't heard much from the college where I'm supposed to have an interview. After leaving a few more voice mail messages, I did finally get a call back (while I was out, of COURSE) saying they plan to interview all applicants in one day this week, either Tuesday or Thursday. So I called back and told them which would be best for me, as they requested - left a voice mail again - I have YET to make it through to an actual person. That was Friday, and I still haven't heard anything, despite leaving yet another message inquiring about the status late this afternoon. I assume Tuesday is out, unless they're planning to call me and tell me to come in fifteen minutes or something. Which leaves Thursday, if I'm lucky, which means I can't go meet my brother (jrherreid) at the airport. A bunch of us were going to go down to pick him up in the van, and it's not essential that I be there, but I'd like to go! And that's the best case scenario...other scenario is that they say they'll interview me at the beginning of the next semester, which isn't until the end of January. Which means back to square one...and I really haven't heard about any other openings.

So...at least I have TTT to look forward to...
