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.

Of course, a cute non-killing vampire crosses paths with Buffy and staking is not what happens. Alas.

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.

Ok, I'm going to have to break down and get one, right? It's too funny not to own it.

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 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.

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.

I just called and I have to report for jury duty in the morning. Sigh. I was living in denial. I'm not really too sick to serve, but I'm having some gastrointestinal issues from the antibiotic that I don't think anyone will appreciate.

So I sent my brother the link to the Wravenous Wromance thing. I got this response:

Ah, the book that the "The Time Traveller's Wife" wanted to be.

I'm intrigued by what's happened to the notion of "romance" (if this appears in the romance section rather than gang-bang fiction).

It no longer seems possible to book a romantic dinner for two at an upscale restaurant without getting thrown out for indecent exposure.

Are you sure that the first draft didn't start off with the words: "I never believed your letters were real until the following happened to me..."

Much like dolphin-lovin', some things once seen cannot be unseen.

Toto ran smack dab in front of a car this afternoon. I have no idea how the person saw him in time to stop, but he did. And I cried and cried and thanked him about a million times while I held Toto so tight I thought I might break him.

I don't think I've ever been so scared in my life.

Ohh! VW how scary I'm glad Toto is okay!

I have been without internet since, um, Tuesday I think. Oh my god it's been an ordeal but I got through even though I feel like I've been on a deserted island. I skipped, seriously I have no idea what is going on in the Buffista World.

I do have a Twilight story to share -- Monday one of the IT guys was out sick. So Tuesday he comes back and tells me "I was such a nerd on Monday"

"Why?"

"I was bored. And so I watched Twilight on Demand."

....!!!! Bwahahahaha. "Seriously? Twilight?"

"I didn't know! All I knew was glittery vampires. I didn't undestand!"

"You didn't Google it?"

"No."

And I mocked him and teased him. He later told this to another co worker who said she didn't like vampire movies because they are scary . IT guy says "This one wasn't scary there was only implied violence"

I retored " Yeah, because it's for 12 year old girls!"

His birthday is next month and his "work wife" was trying to figure out what to do to his office and I mentioned Twilight and she got the idea to decorate it with Hannah Montana.

Also he tried to defend Twilight as not a bad love story if you discount the vampires.

Oh, VW... too scary. I'll light a candle for alert drivers for you and Toto.

Yeah, sure if romance is all about stalkery, manic-depressive, controlling virgin boys with self-hatred issues.

Okay, maybe in my family, but still...
