RotK trailer: SQUEE!!!! Chills and goosebumps and the threat of teary eyes. Perfect. One complaint: not enough Pippin.

Sandman Endless Nights: SQUEE!!!! Beautiful and wrapped in plastic. Gorgeous cover. Beautiful shiny, glossy, colorful pages. New books smell. (Doesn't take much to get me going, obviously. Some people like that new car smell, give me new book smell.) Also have the two Death graphic novels. Double SQUEE!!

Angel Season 5 Episode 1 & 2 on my computer: SQUEE!!!! *freaks out in a major way* Er. Dude. Wesley & Gunn platonic fun is back!! "Does that mean I should call you Wesle?" There's some tension between Wes and Fred. It's Lilah. Figuratively. (Lilah is lurking in between them. Kinda like Fred was lurking between Wes and Lilah. Hmm.) Speaking of which, I MISS LILAH. Am really tempted to make icon of Eve with something about wannabes on it. Eve is okay, but NOT LILAH. Did I mention that I miss her? Angel is starting to look a little bit older. As is SPIKE! I wasn't sure what I'd think of Spike, but I still love him. "Spike?" "Spike." "Blondie Bear?!" Harmony is terrific. Why are Cordy and Conner still in the opening credits? LORNE. Love Lorne. Really. He's had some great lines, but I can't for the life of me remember them. There have been some really good lines so far. Have only watched episode one and part of two so far. Maybe will finish tomorrow if time permits.

School: Bleh. Mrs. Weber (English prof.) is really great. I stayed after class to talk to her today. Wore my black coat with my Lothlorien brooch. ("Not idly do the leaves of Lorien fall.") She commented on it. :) I love when people comment on it. And ask about it. It's great. So we talked about Tolkien and she said I should met one of the other professors in the English department because he'd appreciate it as well as like meeting an English major. She also told me all about the Speech on Tolkien this Saturday in the Pigott Auditorium. She thought I might be able to get a ticket discount by talking to Prof. Whateverhisnameis. I can say it, I just have no idea how to spell it. Anyway. So I think I'll go to the talk Saturday.

This last Friday my Experiencing Theatre class was required to go see Topdog/Underdog. It was really good. Only two actors, both of whom I'd seen in movies. (One was in Simply Irresistable with Sarah Michelle Gellar and the other was/is in The Matrix Reloaded and The Matrix Revolutions. (The new pilot dude.)) The play was about two black brothers (Lincoln and Booth) who have/had issues. It revolves around three card monty basically. Other than that it's sort of hard to really just write about. This coming Saturday we were supposed to all go see a four hour play, Homebody/Kabul, but the prof. saw it last Saturday and her husband left partway through. It wasn't great. So I have free time Saturday night now! As well as free time on Wednesday when we would have had class! Yea!
