Twilight and the Crazies

Ummmmm hi. Now, I love Twilight. Like, a lot. Like, I hadn't crushed that hard on anyone since 8th grade - especially never a literary character (I mean, I love you Mr. Darcy...but you were kind of a prick through most of Pride and Prejudice...even though Colin Firth made you immortal with that swimming-through-the-lake-at-Pemberly scene. But, I digress).

However. I realize that vampires aren't real, and that the Twilight series isn't real. And that I have an AWESOME husband in M and even though he isn't immortal and super strong and super OBSESSED with me... he is umm real.

That brings us to the CRAZY lady that has gone off her rocker. My friend K sent me this link and I had to share - http://www.women24.com/Women24/BooksAstrology/News/Article/0,,1-12-68_22747,00.html

"And thirdly, no prince could love me so intensely like a vampire. Reading Breaking Dawn, I was hopelessly out of breath when Edward and Bella made love at intervals during the book. But it wasn't Bella that I saw in my head, it was me. It was me that gave birth to his perfect daughter and it was me that turned into a raging beauty after feeling his venom burn through my veins."

"I have often in my dreams seen myself single, without children, packing my backpack on a quest to find Forks ... In my dreams I feel the passion of our first kiss and the disappointment as he pulls away, afraid he will hurt me.

In my dreams I wake up on Isle Esme wrapped in feathers and bruised from our first night of love making. In my dreams I feel and see him for the first time truly as a vampire and I feel his body burning mine as we fall down on the floor of our new cottage. In my dreams I have never been loved so much, nor have I loved so much."

Nutty.

NUTTTTTYYYYYYY!

Lady, I was raised on Disney princesses too - and I do admit that it shaped me in more ways than one...but I think you need a therapist.

LOST and other musings...

This post has NO spoilers about season 5 of LOST. Instead, it has a cry for help - M and I tried to "catch up" with LOST last night (ummm, the night before my first Nursing School quiz - VERY SMART Dani). I say TRY because only the last 5 episodes are online, and we have missed the last 7! Since we don't have DVR anymore, we had to make do with "LOST Untangled" on YouTube and Doc Jensen's recaps @ EW.com

Well, just doing that for two took a while, and then we had to go and watch two of the episodes. At this point, it was 11:30 and I really needed to study for my quiz. M went to bed, but I stayed up...reading on EW.com about LOST (and a bit about New Moon). Oh well.

It all turned out OK, since I made a 19/20 on my quiz today (PS, someone FAILED already. Sheesh. It was a 20-question multiple choice quiz on nursing history!), but the fact still remains that I cannot control myself when it comes to LOST. I get sucked in and it won't let me go!

In other pop culture news, True Blood Season 1 comes out on DVD today!! "Soooookeeeehhhhh" - Knippy, that was for you. =)
