Happy Birthday Sparky!
Actually, I was thinking it would be sort of like a pet. You know, we could...we could name her Trixie, or Miss Kitty Fantastico, or something.

I haven't read any of the Twilight books nor seen the movies. But just reading the movie review of the last one it seems like the wussiest narrative cop-out I've ever seen. So lame.

Happy birthday, Sparky!
Everyone's Thanksgiving prep posts are making me tired. Luckily, we're not doing much this year. M might be making a pie today, as is his wont, but otherwise all we have to do tomorrow is show up with drinks. (We're doing T-day with Gris and his lovely family, who live about a half mile from us.) And I feel extra lucky that M doesn't have to work today, since Rose's daycare apparently is closing at 3:30 today, even though I asked them LAST NIGHT if they'd be open regular hours today, and they said yes. WTF? Good thing M can swing by and pick her up, since I need to work a full day today.

You may want to seek out the Cleolinda recaps of the books.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Oh yeah -- I've been meaning to ask someone to tell me the "shocking twist ending!!!" of the movie vs. the book.
I just have to cut up veg and make dip tonight or in the morning. Mustn't forget!

I think this is probably the most enjoyable format in which to consume the Twilight series.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

I was wondering that, too. Do Edward and Jacob get it on? PLEASE TELL ME THEY DO.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Which part? I read the books, and I can think of a few things that might qualify as "wussiest narrative cop-out."
