We're moving toward getting ourselves to the beach. It's been a slow process this morning.
Can't any one of your damn little Scooby club at least try to remember that I hate you all?

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir
225. Seems like such a big number. I trimmed about 20 folks out of Facebook. I don't think I nicked any Buffistas, but if I did, it was unintentional. I removed a lot of "limited profile" folks from college and high school that I never really cared about then. 225 still seems like a lot. I dunno.

Art Crawl!!!
I have a friend who loves Twilight and bought it on BlueRay. Yes, I will be watching that movie. (She's a very close friend and I will support her madness as she has supported mine.)
Her nieces and sister (their mom) are also v. into it. (I think she actually read the series so that she could discuss with her nieces - it is kind of fun to participate in something that the younglings are so obsessed with.) Last weekend her sister and kids invited friends and had a nice mother-daughter viewing of the dvd at their house.
As silly as I think that series is - stories like that prevent me for hating it.

"And then Buffy staked Edward. The end."
That really is up there with the "It sank. Get over it." TITANIC t-shirts an acquaintance of mine made a fortune on.

I kind of liked the movie, given all its silliness. Hubby was listening to the book o tape an said that we'd stick to the movies.

“Not dead yet!”
Dude, uh-huh! I saw an awesome t-shirt advertised the other day, and I kinda want it. It was very simple: "And then Buffy staked Edward. The end."
I have that t-shirt. Wore it to a RWA conference and was scolded for being mean.
I have no idea where they thought I wasn't.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
Of course, a cute non-killing vampire crosses paths with Buffy and staking is not what happens. Alas.

Now tagless for your comfort.

I own it, too! I've gotten a few compliments on it. I haven't read the Twilight books but I suspect I'll dip a toe in at some point and I'll watch the movie now that it's on DVD.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger
Ok, I'm going to have to break down and get one, right? It's too funny not to own it.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
He was all, I don't know if this will make you never talk to me again but I had to send it; and I was all -- dude, made of BAD! WIN!
He's the closest you can get to dating one of us, without having the actual worry about who gets b.org if things don't work out.

I was pre-disposed to dislike it. Watched it at the group home on Friday night as one of the other staff brought it in to share. I didn't hate it. But it kind of dragged on. They know I do not care for horror movies, and they promised me it was much more of a romance. But it seemed like such an ordinary teen high school movie - Now With Added Vampires! that it did not hold my interest. When my shift was over, and there was still at least half an hour left, I had no problems walking away.
It didn't have the suspense and fear of a good scary movie, and it certainly didn't have the charm and chemistry of a great teen movie like Say Anything. It may have been trying too hard to be all things to all girls that it succeeded at none. At least for this viewer.
