Notes
1/?-?/? Los Angeles Back Home Dom, Elijah Elijah: "I didn't really call friends. I slowly but surely grooved into being home again. I connected with more Lord of the Rings folk at home than with other people. Dominic came to my house, we watched about 25 movies and just ate food, and it was the best."
? Austraila Visited brother Dom Dom: "Yes, ages. I had quite a hard time of it. I just couldn't settle."

7/21 San Diego Comic-Con Elijah Assuming he was still able to go places without being recognised, the actor decided to make a trip to a fan convention - and discovered things in his life have certainly changed. He says, "I naively thought I'd just go and hang out at a comic book convention in San Diego. I got stopped, and a wall of fans surrounded me. There are a lot of fanatics out there that I don't get. Like, I don't understand Trekkies. Sorry, but it's lame. With Rings I understand it. I lived it. And I will live it for the rest of my life."
