Face In Hole Challenge

In checking my sitemeter, I have noticed that a huge chunk of people that end up on my blog used the search words "face in hole twilight".  So it seems like everyone out there loves Face In Hole like I do.  My kids and I could spend hours on that site creating hilarious manips!!!!  Soooooo.........

I'm sure I have not thought this all the way through, but I really thought it would be fun to do a Face in Hole Challenge.  I don't have any prizes or anything like that.  It's just for shits and giggles. (I love Austin Powers, okay? )  So, go to FaceInHole and type in Twilight in the search.....and have at it.  It's loads of fun, and the results can be awesome (or scary, as some of mine are!!! LOL)  Then email your masterpiece to me at mdahlstrom67@gmail.com.  You have until Feb. 13th.....I will post all the results on Valentines Day.  Maybe once I post them, you guys can vote for the best.  (I'll work on that)   I can't wait to see all of your creations.  Click here to see my creations (some good, some bad): Twilight Junkies Anonymous Face In Hole Challenge

Rob and I can't wait to see your pics!!!!!

The Adventures of Cardboard Rob - Episode 2

Limited Edition Film Cell from Twilight DVD

I don't understand why everyone can't just sell the same DVD everywhere.  Last year,  I pre-ordered the Twilight DVD at Hot Topic thinking that would be THE place to get it.  They were offering the limited edition film cell.  So I went for it.  Afterwards I found out about the 3-disc set from Target.  Now I've learned my lesson.  I would have definitely rather had the 3rd disc.  However, Target is now offering the 3-disc set of New Moon and also offering the limited edition film cell.  I am totally there.....getting ready to pre-order that baby right now.  I don't know how many of you got the film cell last year at Hot Topic, but just to give you a preview of what the New Moon film cell might look like, here is mine from Twilight.

Side 2

I don't know how well you can see the piece of film, but it is Edward and Bella when he shows her his room.  A pretty good part, I must say.

These Rob Pics Make My Inner Beatlefan Happy!

If you read my post last week, you know that I was, and still am a HUGE Beatles Fan.....so when I saw the pics of Rob from the Wonderland photo shoot, I almost died and went to heaven.  He totally looks like a young, hot John Lennon.  Dontcha think????  Okay, I've always found John sexy, but I have to say, Rob has him beat.  I know my Beatle fan buds think I'm being blasphemous!  LOL  

I created a little montage of John and Rob.......*sigh*......

'Twilight' crash scene makes 4th best 'Movie Moment of the Decade'

How cool is that?  It is one of the best scenes in Twilight.  I think Catherine Hardwicke did a few things right. (when she stuck close to the book!!!!)

I found this hilarious video on YouTube.  These chicks are funny!  I love it....and this is just the first of a couple vids.  I will say, if I had a cardboard Rob (which I don't *sniff*), I would be more gentle with him.  Just sayin.....
Enjoy!

"Bite Me" Sexually Suggestive??????

I just read this article on the Twilight Examiner that the company that make the Twilight Sweethearts is removing the phrase "bite me" from the candy because it is sexually suggestive.  Really????  I guess it could be, but in the context of Vampires......I was thinking it meant, literally, BITE ME.  Right?  I'm so bummed, because that was my favorite phrase! I love handing people a candy heart that says 'bite me" on it!   Here is the link to the article.  I just thought it was kinda funny.

'Bite Me' removed from 'Twilight' Sweethearts

Obsessed with Twilight???? Me????? Part 2

My last blog post left me feeling that it was..... incomplete.  Like I posted prematurely before I got it all off my chest.  It's been rattling around in my head the last 2 days, so here goes.  I have a few things that I want to say about this obsession thing.

Since my last post, a few things have happened.  First, that exact conversation that I recounted in my last post - happened later that very night.  Almost verbatim.  I swear to God!  So I just laughed out loud.....husband and son had no idea why I just busted out laughing.   It all started because my son somehow accidentally got my invite for the New Moon Release Party in March on Facebook.  I still don't know how the fuck that happened.  They knew in the backs for their minds that I was throwing another party this year, but I was planning on springing that on them more subtly.  After my son was going on and on, and I'm laughing, my husband said something that he has never said before.  "Yeah, I think you're a little obsessed". And he said it in a very condescending way.  What happened to remaining neutral?  I can blow it off when my obnoxious 13 year old says it, but when my husband said it, it hurt.  It hurt so much that I took down all my visible Twitardedness (thank you JJ and STY for the term!)  No more desktop wallpaper, no more screensavers, no more New Moon Calendar on the fridge, you get the picture.  I even took the "I Run With Vamps" shirt I was wearing that day and turned it inside out in protest.

Is it possible to have an "obsessive" personality?  I think it is, and I think I have one.  Not in a bad way, like Glenn Close in Fatal Attraction.  In a fun way.  Let me state for the record, that this obsessive thing is not a new thing for me.  I'm into many things.....including Harry Potter.  But there have been a few things in my life that have become obsessions.  Let me present some evidence.

Exhibit A

My room in high school - wall-to-wall-to-ceiling Beatles!

From the age of 13 until.....well, I'm not sure......I began my obsession with the Beatles.  "Fest for Beatles Fans" (formerly known as, and still know by me as, Beatlefest) every year, every Beatle album, bootleg, video, poster, you name it, I had it.  Don't get me wrong....I still love the Beatles with all my heart, but after 25 years, I've grown beyond the obsessive stage.  Trust me though, I used to eat, sleep, drink Beatles.

Exhibit B

A more recent obsession.  Yes, I am very serious.  The Wiggles.  I know, I'm crazy. My youngest son Matthew introduced me to the Wiggles when he was 2.  So being a good Mommy, I bought tickets to a Wiggles concert.....and I was hooked.  Don't judge me, please!  You have know idea how catchy those friggin songs are or how absolutely hot Anthony Field is.   Seriously. I have a story to go with that statement.  I actually took Matt to a total of 3 Wiggles concerts.  One of the concerts, I drove 3 hours down to Peoria because I went on Ticketmaster the night before and got some front row seats that were released at the last minute.  So we get in our seats and this mom behind comments on how great these seats are.  I said we will be able to see Anthony really well, and she does that fake laugh and then very seriously says "Anthony is MINE!"  No shit....I swear to God.  That really happened.

Okay, so my point is this. My husband knew me way back then and accepted my Beatles obsession without question. My oldest son himself, went through a little Beatle thing himself for a while there. They didn't give me this much shit when I friggin ordered my very own Wiggles shirt from Australia, no less. (FYI - for 2 of the 3 Wiggles concerts, my oldest son INSISTED on coming!) So why, oh why, are they so down on me for my Twilight Obsession?????? This is soooooooo not as wierd as my Wiggle obsession. I will be the first to admit that.

Is that my oldest son AT as WIGGLES concert, wearing a BEATLES shirt?????

I love the irony!

Do you people not know me?  Do you not know that that's the way I roll.  It's just me.....the way I am.  The evidence is overwhelming.   For the record, I don't drink (much - lol) I don't do drugs, I go to work every day, (and there were days in the past where my class was so bad, I had to start taking Wellbutrin).  Why can't you just throw me this bone.  It's escapism at it's best and it is not hurting anybody.

Let me just say, that this Twilight thing of mine is not going anywhere anytime soon.

June will be here before we know it!

Wow!  That was like therapeutic!  Thanks for listening to my bullshit guys.  I feel a little better now that I got that out there.

Obsessed with Twilight???? Me?????

I'm sure some of you can relate to the following.  This is a conversation that takes place on a regular basis in my house.

Me: Just minding my own business, writing something for the blog, or surfing for more Twilighty goodies
Oldest son: That's all you ever do!   Watch Twilight or look at pictures of that fruit cup Edward on the computer!
Me: So?
Oldest son: You don't see anything wrong with this?
Me: No
Oldest son: You have a problem.  You're obsessed.
Me: Whatever.....
Oldest son:  Oh my God....you don't get it.  None of the other kids moms are obsessed with Twilight.
Me:  (Ignoring Oldest Son)
Oldest Son: (to husband) Dad, don't you think she has a problem?  That's all she does.
(FYI - I do other things, like go to work everyday and teach 2nd graders, come home, make dinner, wash dishes....the usual stuff)
Husband (trying to remain neutral) basically tells Oldest Son something to the effect of move on with your life, you're not going to change anything so back off.

At this point it usually escalates into a full blown fight, with me being accused of neglecting him and being a terrible mother.  He is 13 friggin years old.....hello!  Most 13 year olds want nothing to do with their mother.  Time to loosen the apron strings. Thank goodness the other two kids love Twilight and embrace my TwiJunkiness.

Am I obsessed with Twilight?  Hell, friggin yes, I am.  What's your point????

Look at this....definitely obsess-worthy, right????

I am entitled to enjoy things, aren't I.  Why do I have to sit and be judged by a 13 year old????  I have literally purchased Twilighty things and was told by my husband that I better not let Oldest Son see it.  That's pretty sad.  I have to sneak things in past my kid.  Yikes!

I know what you're probably thinking.  He's thirteen.....kick his butt.  Easy for you to say.....I'm 5'4" and my 13 year old is 6' tall.  Seriously!  My butt kicking days are long, long gone.  So does anyone have this kind of crap going on in their house????  Please post.....make feel like I'm not alone out there.  LOL

New Moon DVD Date?!?!?!?!? (updated 1-15-10)

Okay, so this is the DVD case for New Moon.  Great.

How about a date Summit?????  C'mon.....throw me a bone!  I have a New Moon Party to plan!  I have cute little Edward, Bella and Jacob paper plates to buy, and Vitamin R to track down.  Not to mention Vampire Venom (aka jello shots) to make, twinkle lights to hang up....and I need to find a way to get a FSE  (Full-Size Edward) past my husband.  Let's go powers that be.

I NEED TO KNOW!!!!! :)

Update:  According to Summit on Twitter, the release date is 3/20/10 - time to start planning!!!!

Happy Monday!

Leaked Eclipse Script

So, did you or did you not read the Eclipse script????????  Okay, I admit it.....I did. Don't judge me.  I  could NOT to go to sleep last night until I finished it.  I thought for sure I would have a snow day today, so I  wasn't too worried about staying up late last night.  Of course, the snow gods had other things in mind for me....and I was teaching today.  (hoping for one tomorrow though!)

So am I a baddddd girl??????  I could not stop myself!!!!  I have absolutely no self control when it comes to.....anything, especially Twi-related stuff!  I don't want to comment about it until I read it at least one more time.....so give me a day or two.  I will say that I was pretty happy with it, but I need some time to pick it apart.  I was just wondering if you were able remain an Eclipse virgin.....or did you pop your cherry?????  Post in the comments.  :)

Did you peek??????

Which Songs Are in Which New Moon Scenes?

It drove me friggin nuts listening to the soundtrack after seeing New Moon the first time, trying to figure out which songs were playing during which scenes.  After multiple viewings, I think I got them all except one.  So, in case there are any  more of you out there that are anal like me and JUST NEED to know, here is the list.

       by....October...November....December.  
5. The Killers – A White Demon Love Song
      End credits

     This is playing when Bella drives away in her truck after telling Charlie she's going shopping with 
      Jessica.
8. Bon Iver & St. Vincent- Rosyln
     This song is really melancholy.....it's playing when Edward is missing from school the day after the 
     birthday party, and while he is looking at the photo of him and Bella in her room, leading up to the 
     breakup scene.
9. Black Rebel Motorcycle Club – Done All Wrong
     This is playing when Bella arrives at Emily's.

         she want him to be the one to change her.
15. Alexandre Desplat – New Moon (The Meadow)
        I'm not sure about this one.....it doesn't sound like the same music that is playing when Bella finds the 
        meadow (and Laurent) and I can't figure out where this is in the movie.  Anyone????

Thom Yorke - Hearing Damage

Hearing Damage by Thom Yorke has got to be my favorite song (today) from New Moon.  I go back and forth between Hearing Damage, The Violet Hour, Monsters, and Friends.....depends on the day, mood, etc. This is also one of my favorite parts of New Moon.  Victoria looks gorgeous.....I love her outfit.  The whole chase scene is choreographed so well.  Charlie is looking pretty cute....LOL.  I love when Victoria drops from the trees and is right behind Charlie. The whole thing just has a really cool vibe to it.

What's your favorite song from New Moon, or scene?????
