RL sucks!!

Ahhhh! I was a total fail in posting last night!! I am sorry! There will be 30 questions. I promise!! And tonight I will post a 2-parter!!

See you later!! May this tide you over!!

I love you.

It was so great to get the comments for the question I added today. I was actually a little saddened after I wrote my post. Last night, with friends that mean a lot to me, I was left feeling like my love of Twilight was pathetic. I am quite hurt.

The comments that I received made me smile so hard and I say to my so called friends--f**k off. ( by the way they have not even read the books.)

Twilight makes me happy. Plain and simple. It is my escape from reality. It is my thing.

Question #10 An Eclipse question

Where did Edward buy Bella's engagement ring? and describe what it looks like.

Valentine's day GOODIES and a bonus question!! SPOILER ALERT!!

Happy Valentine's Day to all my fellow Twilight lovers!!!! I heart sharing my love with you everyday!!

At dinner last night with 2 other couples, I was just a tiny bit ambushed and teased mercilessly about my love of all things related to Twilight and my love of Rob Pattinson. I was asked this question:

Why do you love Twilight?

I said the usual things; It makes me happy. It is fun. It enhanced my love life. Rob is so yummy.

But still like a bunch of 4 year olds, They continued to ask why. I wanted to bust out- Just because, leave me the f**k alone!!! but I grasped at straws trying to find the words to explain my love.

(BTW- The more I drink the less coherently I am able to justify my obsession. That sucked.)

If I had been able to show them these pictures, they would have totally understood.

Leg hitch!! Woo Hoo!! (and the gold bedding is accurate!)

Booby grope!!! Ahhh- not so accurate, but so awesome!!!

Is that a ring box in her hand?

Ok- really- not so accurate, but I betcha Bella saves him- Al la third wife!!

134 days to go and David Spade rewards our love with this valentine!! Thanks !!!

Bonus Question worth 3 points!!

Why do you love Twilight?

A Foolish Friday Post

I have been so busy today dealing with real life. Yuck! We have been pretty much stuck in the house for the last 8 days and being with your family is kind of like fish. After a while it just stinks.
I did get a short reprieve this evening with my first book club meeting. I was very nice. I only knew one lady and I think that was better as we were able to focus more on the books and not on the normal gossiping that we would do.

So, I apologize for recycling a post. I have just had too much wine and will probably either babble or get in trouble.

Here is my husband's favorite post. It is so true and right now Baby AD is growing out of his shoes, but won't wear anything else. For those who are new to my blog, enjoy:

My son's life with a Twilight Obsession.


I have an adorable 2 year old son, Baby AD, who, I think, likes Twilight as much as I do. When I wear my t-shirts, he lovingly pats my chest and says "Edward. Bella.". He can spot pictures of Edward anywhere and he points them out excitedly like a normal 2 year old points out a balloon. He has actually sat next to me and watched the entire Twilight movie without being too annoying more than once. I am kind of afraid that I have brainwashed him.

Here is why I think this:

In a genius move that my husband is notorious for we left to go hiking in the Shenandoah National Park, as he grabbed Baby AD to put into the car I mentioned for him to put the baby's shoes on. Stopping for gas, 60 miles from home I notice my son's stocking feet. Knowing the answer before I asked it, my husband admits he forgot the shoes. Luckily a Kmart was found and shoes were purchased. These shoes:

Go Diego Go shoes.

I showed them to my sweet boy and he excitedly yelled-"EDWARD SHOES!!"

He loves his Edward shoes. I have tried to get him to call them Diego shoes to assuage the annoyance my husband feels, but AD insists that they are Edward shoes. I feel it serves RZ right for forgetting the perfectly good black and gray non-Edward shoes at home.

p.s.-Just so you know, AD can say Diego perfectly. He just really likes Edward.

Question #9

How do Bella and Alice get to Volterra?

Answer #9

They fly to Italy and the drive to Volterra in a yellow Porsche

A LOVE post

All I can say is that I had better receive this for Valentine's Day, dear!! If I don't I may kill you!! I have given my husband plenty of subtle and not so subtle hints that I had better get one of these packages delivered to me. I will act surprised and shower him with kisses.

His epic failures of both my birthday and Christmas leave him really no choice, but to just do it. I may not speak to him for at least a day if doesn't comply. (A day is really all I can manage, but I am a genius at making sure he knows that I am pissed without words.)

As an added bonus, visit the new site that Peter Facinelli has sponsored, Twihards4Charity, and find out how you can help Haiti with the purchase of one of the packages above. I love celebrities who lend their fame to good things. Peter is great at this.

So forward this to your significant other and give them a blaring hint at what you expect this Valentine's Day. Maybe you can even convince them to take you to see Taylor Lautner's new movie named after this LOVE-ly holiday. Wouldn't big opening weekend numbers be a great present for our new 18 year old. (I have been forbidden from writing a post about how he is legal and that I can now lust after him openly. I wouldn't do that anyway. 23 is the youngest I will go and truthfully Rob owns me and a Taylor conversion will not be happening.)

Question #8

This is a three part question- 1 point for each correct answer. The most specific answer will get a bonus of 10 points!!!

Why was it necessary for Esme to be turned into a vampire by Carlisle?

What was the cause of her injuries?

And -What was the reason for her decision?

Answer #8

Personal history of Esme Cullen: In 1911, Esme broke her leg falling out of a tree she’d climbed. Her family lived on a farm on the outskirts of Columbus. The local doctor was away, and it was after dark by the time they got her to the small hospital in Columbus. A Dr. Cullen treated her. It was his last month in town. She never got over the experience. (PC1)

Esme was the last of her friends to marry. She was thinking of moving West to be a schoolteacher, but her father didn’t think it was respectable for a lady to live alone in the wilds. The son of a family friend, a man with good prospects, wanted to marry her, and her father pressured her to accept. She was indifferent towards Charles Evenson, but not opposed to him. She married him in 1917 at the age of 22, and quickly found that this had been a bad decision. Charles’s public face was very different from his private face; he abused her. Her parents counseled her to be a good wife and keep quiet. When he was drafted to fight in WW1, it was a huge relief to her. When he came back in 1919, it was terrifying. (PC1)

Shortly after his return, Esme discovered she was pregnant. The pregnancy was Esme’s catalyst to escape. She couldn’t let a child be brought into that home. She ran away in 1920 to live with a second cousin in Milwaukee, and then moved further north when word of her whereabouts leaked to her parents. She blended in easily, pretending to be one of the many war widows. She taught school in a small community outside Ashland. When her baby died in 1921 from a lung infection just a few days after he was born, she had nothing left. She had no idea that Carlisle was working in the little hospital in Ashland when she jumped off the cliff outside the town. Carlisle remembered her, of course, as the happy girl she had been at sixteen. He didn’t want her to die and so he saved her. (PC1)

When she opened her eyes, in all that pain, and saw the face that she’d never forgotten in a decade, she was relieved. She was not really that upset to find out she was a vampire, but she didn’t take it as in stride as Emmett had. Still, she was happy to be with the man/vampire of her dreams and they were soon married.

This is post is a nightmare.

A Nightmare on Elm Street in HD

Trailer Park Movies MySpace Video

NIghtmare on Elm St.! I get the heebie-jeebies just thinking about those movies!! They were so scary and the only reason that I am posting this video is that Kellen Lutz stars in the movie. I heart Kellen.

Do I need to pull out my sexy almost naked picture? I probably shouldn't because my husband is home and has no respect for my art.

Question #7

Give me the name of the person who made the original treaty with Cullen's?

Answer #7-

Ephraim Black

Virginia Twilight Moms

A couple of months ago I was invited to join a group on Facebook called Virginia Twilight Moms. I was so excited!! Unfortunately it is so hard to interact with a group on Facebook. In fact today the whole damn thing is screwed up! Sometimes I hate Facebook.

Melisa S, one of the admins for the group has started a blog for Virginia Twilight Moms, which I think is actually a misnomer. It should be Virginia Twilight lovers, who are not teeny-bopper fangirls, but a group of sexy ladies that could teach Rob a thing or two. But that title is too long.

Check out her posts. The blog is brand new and Missy is looking for ways to make it better for all the members!

If you are a member of VTMs, please check out the new site and support Missy in her new endeavor. Suggestions are totally needed, she really wants to make this a site that you will want to visit each day for your Twilight fix.

She also makes some gorgeous wallpapers that I hope she will share with us all!

Question #6

What are the names of the coven that the Cullen's consider family and where do they live?

Answer #6

The Denali Clan from Alaska- Bonus points for the ladies who gave me all their names!!!

Tanya, Kate, Irina, Carmen and Eleazar

Bad Hair and Question #5

Ahhh! Did you see those beautiful pictures!! I am sorry for you Twi-purity girls out there!! I couldn't hold myself back from posting them!! I was too freakin' excited!!! I am still giddy!!

I was happy to see that in those pictures Bella's hair doesn't look so bad. I hate wigs!! In Twilight, Jasper (Jackson Rathbone) and Esme (Elizabeth Reaser) wore wigs. They did not bother me at all. Maybe because I had nothing to compare them to. But in New Moon, Esme's hair was ugly, Rosalie's hair was so fake looking, and Jasper's hair was scary!! The only wig that was improved was Jacob's and it annoyed me, too. I know that Laurent had a new wig made, but I really didn't notice.

Kristen Stewart cut her hair for The Runaways and she looks awesome in the role of Joan Jett, but I am sure that the producers of Eclipse about shit themselves when they saw her hair. In this picture her wig looks horrible and I am kind of scared. (ewwww- Jacob's Twilight wig was bad!!)

Now her hair in this Harper's Bazaar spread is gorgeous!! The extentions look so much better than a wig. I just don't know what to think. I would be hiring the hairdresser from HB.

I do know that on June 30th I will be so entranced by Edward that I am sure Bella's hair will be the last thing I am looking at. Does Edward have any shirtless scenes in this movie??

Question #5

After Edward saves Bella in Port Angeles, What does she say to distract him from turning around and going after her attackers?

Answers:

Book? She tells Edward she is going to run Tyler over tomorrow at school

Movie? "You should put on your seatbelt."

Be still my heart!!!

Hot Damn!!! I could not wait 7 more hours to post these pictures!!!! Eclipse does actually exist!!! I was beginning to doubt it!!

All I can say is- Thank you Mr. Spade, you have whipped my excitement up at least to a 10 and also this, Have I ever mention how much I like Rob's sexy smile? A LOT!!!!!!

Question #4 is in the previous post!!

Football and Question #4

It is the last football Sunday of the year. I like football, but to my husband football is really soccer. I did finally get him interested in football with the Saints/Vikings playoff game. We are both still bitter at the outcome and are at my parent' houses enjoying the company, but not the game. We happen to also be celebrating my twin brothers' 30th birthday.

The reason I bring this up is that my brother was floored when I gave B2 a hard time for not readily knowing the answer to the trivia question. "Rachel, Are you telling me you can remember that exact quote from a minor character?"

Yes, I can. I have seen Twilight over 100 times. I can probably tell you the line being spoken at any particular time in the movie. I really think that my family, although they know I am obsessed, has no clue the extent of my love for Twilight.

Here is the extent- I love Twilight more than my father and my 3 brothers love the Vikings. Combined.

Answer to #4

Alice has a niece living in Biloxi.
I am sure that it is totally possible that other character's may have distant relatives alive, but Stephenie Meyer does not mention them.
