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.
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.

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!

Queen - or How S was Right.
Ummm my best-friend-since-we-were-twelve S has always liked Queen. And I always thought she was a little off her rocker. I don't know WHY, but I think it has to do with the fact that she would scream the lyrics to "Bohemian Rhapsody" - that EVERYONE screams the lyrics to that song...including my Freshman college roommate. Anyways. I didn't know what the big deal was. The middle part of that song is odd. Seriously people.
However, it seems that I was ACTUALLY a Queen fan and didn't even know it. M played the video of "Don't Stop Me Know" on YouTube and I was like - "oh hey that is the song S and her bro were singing at the Piano bar...it's kinda cool. Who sings it?"
M almost killed me with the daggers shooting from his eyes. M then guided us on a Queen YouTube binge...and I found out that "We Will Rock You," "We Are the Champions," "Crazy Little Thing Called Love" and "Another One Bites the Dust" are ALL QUEEN SONGS.
And my mind was blown.
I blame S for not telling me all this earlier - ok FORCING me to listen to her. Then we could have been rocking out to Queen for the last decade. =)
UMMM PS - Did you know that it's Don't Stop Me Now that's playing during the Jukebox scene from Shaun of the Dead? Best movie ever. Best scene ever...
