I don't know if you've seen it yet or not, but, Verizon is out with a new commercial featuring "Sebastian" and his girlfriend ... Sebastian's styling/outfit is looking VERY familiar ... what I'm not recognizing is the non whiny, non stuttering, non blinking at a hummingbirds wing pace, blond girlfriend ...
Anywho, the punchline is she has crappy cell coverage, he ditches her, and a wolf is ready to dive in for seconds. I wonder wherever they got this unique plot idea from ;)
All in all, what I can't tell, is if it's lame or not. Initially I want to say yes, yes it is, but, then it is kinda about twilight ... and that makes me want to say no ... what do you think?
Also, love the teeth! The more I watch Twi movies, the more I just wish the vamps could have some retractable vamp teeth ... (like the ones in this commercial where they line up on the canines, not like on Tru Blood [which I love other than teeth] where they come out of the outside incisors ... the spacing is just wrong when done like that ...)

Facing the Music & Twilight Graphic Novel
Firstly, I'm sorry, I'm a lame blogger, and it will likely stay so until after tax season.
I was so proud of myself for being able to keep up a nearly daily posting for months. Then, real life made an appearance.
There's a whole list of reasons why I'm being lame. Some of which I'll try to catch you up on.
One thing that may help, is that I found the part of the posting options where you can schedule a date and time for posts to be posted ... so, I can maybe find a day or two where I have more time, type a few posts, and then schedule them to be posted in a more strung out fashion.
Now, in other news, as most of you have likely heard. There is going to be a Twilight Graphic Novel that will be released over several installments. The first of which is set to release March 16. It looks pretty cool if you like such things, you can check it out on amazon
I have to say, that's the first time I've seen anything like it.

Another bit of random, I think it's interesting that the storm hitting the East Coast is being so nasty and unpredictable that amazon is making a note about it.
I have to say, that's the first time I've seen anything like it.

Want!!!
They may be good, they may be terrible, regardless, I have a love for the Twilight Action Figures!
I don't have NM Edward yet, he's terrible!!! I don't have Alice yet, I've been on the fence about her ... that is until I saw this ...
and now I'm seeing a need for a sparkleward, a shirtless jacob, an Alice, and a Jasper ... which is WAY more money than I have right now ... I'm thinking I can't possibly spend any more money on this without feeling HORRIBLE because the house fund is tight as it is right now ...
And then I remembered that Mr Twinatic has yet to get me a Christmaversary gift yet ... (the 29th made it 8yrs for us) and as he's done in the past, if the first attempt doesn't go well, he just forgets about it ... one attempt has been made, but, he swears he's set the money aside.
I'm thinking that as they're not out until April, this gives me a little time to connive, scheme, sell some stuff, etc. so i can get my grubs on these. I'm going to just tell Mr Twinatic to set aside that money, maybe do another can drive, and dig through the closets for some eBayable things.
I'm not sure if this habit is a good thing ... it seems to be costing a lot ... I'm no longer sure that it's cheaper than a meth addiction ...

Hello Again Twitardia
Hello,
It's been a while!!!
Somewhere over the New Moon release, the nearly traumatic encounters with drunk people four weekends in a row, my brother's wedding, and being in charge of making Christmas this year, Christmas itself, the kids home for Christmas break, an Anniversary, and New Years ... I lost my fever.
I lost my line of sight on my love of Twilight.
I didn't follow any of the blogs. I haven't even been obsessively following my beloved JJ and STY over at Twitarded! I've only seen New Moon twice! *gasp!!!* I haven't been re-reading any of the books, or even listening to them on my ipod. I haven't even read any fanfic in about 6 weeks!!! ... i hadn't even stalked any pictures of the precious ...
The worst part about it all?
... I didn't really care ...
{: o
I was actually beginning to wonder if I was ... over it ...
if the love had left me ...
if I was "cured" of the fevah ...
That was until I caught video below on comcasts front page out of the corner of my eye ...
(and of course they had it stopped to a still of the broken tooth smile)
I was IMMEDIATELY all kinds of concerned for RPattz ... was he hurt ... was he okay ... what happened to his precious tooth?!?! WHAT WAS GOING ON?!?!?
I rushed straight to all the twi-blogs to see if this was recent or old news (still don't know when it happened)
Needless to say, it all came rushing back to me, the obsession, the fever, the love!!! All it took was thinking RPattz had been massively, painfully, horrifically, disfiguringly (okay, this may be getting into 'exaggeration' territory) injured for me to remember why I love Twilight so!
I still have a lot going on in that stupid RL that won't leave me alone, but, I will find a way to balance ... I have to ... I have a lot to catch up on!!!

Dear RL, Get The Heck Outta My Way!!!
So, since New Moon opening, life has been crazy, here's some of the following events that have kept me offline/not blogging, and yet, will be most of the future posts when I get back to it.

Thankfully, I do have Rob (and all my twi men) to make me smile when life get stressfull! :)
I have decided that I NEED to be able to have some time in the Twidom soon!!! I'm seriously behind on reading blogs, comments, twittering, picture surfing, and EVERYTHING!!! I'm starting to go through withdrawal! (is bad, is vewy vewy bad!!!)
- Evicia getting a boyfriend
- Ev finishes Twilight and asks for New Moon
- Ev's boyfriend turns out to be the coolest guy ever!
- Parker getting super drunk at the NM premier
- Watch New Moon again, visit Ev after, and end up in charge of a medical emergency at the bar she works at.
- Thanksgiving
- My Brother's Wedding
- My SIL and her Fiance in town from Utah
- Illness interlaced
- Finance/house painters (yes in december)/home repair
- Kid issues/school/HighA days
I will be getting back shortly (hopefully) and will have much to share, I just gotta do this RL thing a little longer ...

My New Moon Premier Hot Mess!!!
I had been so excited for the NM premiere for months! Had bought my tickets WAY ahead of time for me, and the only other person I know in RL who's even close to as excited about Twilight as I am Parker.
I had been planning for weeks on what to take, how to pregame, what to do, etc. But, as we got closer, it looked like life would pretty much get in the way. We both have kids (stupid kids take SO much time [not to mention money] away from Twilight!!! j/k ... kinda ...) and she has a jobby job, so we couldn't get away to the theater till after five ... BOO!!!
If you remember, by buzz was harshed quite considerably by waking up at 3am thursday morning to a sick kiddo saying he had a bad headache and felt like he was going to throw up. Ended up being a fever of 102.7 and 90 mins before I was able to get back into bed.
The sick kiddo incedent threw me for a loop and lost my buzz morning of, but, after a bit (and help from @donnersun) I remembered I was going to see the CW version of a SM book, and some shirtless rob and got the excited back.
Parker's work schedule pretty much meant no pregame, just straight to the theater. Which was okay. In the end, Mr. Twinatic ended up staying home sick the 19th (legitimately, I tried to talk him into fakin in early plans of staging, but, he said no, lucky me he actually got sick that day after all) to which I thought was a boon as it maybe meant I could leave to be in line early (even if I was alone as Parker still couldn't' get off work that early)
This did not end up being the case. Instead, it mostly just meant A LOT of sneak packing (Mr. Twinatic has NO clue how much actual merch I've accumulated ...) he kept following me around to see what I was doing and to hang out, normally things I would love and encourage, but, as it was, it made it VERY hard to collect all the mags and minis I wanted to take for in line.
All said and done, I had my minis, my mags, my twilight director's notebook, both movie companions, a travel game of scrabble, some yahtzee, a deck for skip-bo, a regular card deck (yes, geek here) a chair, snacks, bottles (one of water, one empty) and a backpack to carry them all in.
I gotguilted talked into taking a banking deposit in for my boss, and left knowing I needed to stop at the store and get some kind of liquor, juice, sandwich, and drop off the deposit before I even could get to the theater.
Not even two steps out my door, I was detained by my neighbor who is also a twifan (the normal kind, not the crazy ass over teakettle kind) and wasn't going, she kept me for nearly 15 minutes to talk about the premier, how much fun it was going to be, how the movie was looking, how her daughter couldn't go, hwo they had almost won movie tickets, and how they didn't think they could go until december. I FINALLY and somewhat gracefully was able to pull out, and head to the corner store where juice and rum were quickly bought. I then RACED into town (approx 25 mins away) to the sandwich shop, and then the bank. Free of all preshow errands, I FINALLY got to head to the theater, I got a decent parking spot, got a spot in line, set up my chair, and promptly started talking to/making friends with the people around me in line, I was SO EXCITED by this point, it was nice to be back from the doldrums at the beginning of the day.
Later, this becomes our twilight army who may or may not have gotten in a fight with some bitches in line, and my very own Parker may turn into that obnoxious drunk bitch that nearly ruins it for everyone ...
At this point, this blog is getting kind of long and isn't even halfway through, so I'll save the rest for later ... (also, I may or may not be trying to duck out so I can slip off to see NM FINALLY for the second time ...)
