Dirty Little Secret




K - so don't get me wrong, I enjoy (not LOVE, N joy) watching iCarly with my boys. I think it's a funny show that I actually laugh while watching with them. (Editor's note: I was even impressed with the one about Freddie saving Carly and Carly going all ga ga for Freddie, but they realized being friends was better for them. yay! save your virtue girl! lol)

Anyways, Miranda Cosgrove, aka iCarly, is obviously making her move to Tween Queen status by attemping to become a triple-threat. . .actress/singer/Miley Cyrus. . etc.
Anyways, this video "Kissing U" seen here => http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E65d9SwM6o8 My boys & I make fun of because its like she's 16 trying to be 10-15 years older.

So my boys and & were having a hay day laughing our heads off about how stupid the video was; when Colby, says, "Look mom! It's you & Jacob! so you know you really wish they would kiss now."

LOL!! Really? did he just say that?!

So I say, "No, I only want Dad."
Colby retorts slyly, " No, Mom. You know you want Jacob. You say it all the time." LOL!! I was laughing so hard I couldn't reply back!! and in my DEFENSE, I have NEVER, EVER said I only want Jacob! I saw a New Moon shirt at walmart on clearance I almost bought just to embarrass them but I don't even own Twilight or New Moon the movies! LOL!!

then I was laughing so hard, I said, "No it's you and ________________(name of a cootie-licous girl here)."
Colby says, "Ok then, it's you and Edward." and it only goes downhill from there!

I'm scared of where he comes up with this stuff! He is so smart! :) He could sell holy water to the Pope!

Too Much of a Good Thing?

The following is Ane getting up on her soap box and may contain images or language shocking to most people. Read the following with caution. . . but not really . . .

You guys know I love me some "Twilight". I started reading the series before Eclipse even came out. I loved being one of the first people to "discover" these books before the Twilight mania began.

Yes I LOVED them. YES, they were awesome books! Yes I was UBER excited when they starting making the movies. . . but now, I'm starting to get overly exposed to Twilight almost to the point where it turns me off to the whole thing because I'm so irritated at our 'capitalistic' ideals and society.

Case in point #1 -
Went to Bath & Body Works for some holiday shopping and lo and behold, they have a new fragrance line out called TWILIGHT WOODS. It specifically came out November 1st.
Coincidence? and it doesn't even smell that good. Shouldn't it smell like Edward? ;)

Case #2 -

I came across this in my Costco magazine today. It's Wuthering Heights "BELLA & EDWARD EDITION" SeriouslY? Are you kidding me? A classic book that's been around for 200 years now has a familiar cover (red, black & white flower. . . suspicious) that NO ONE would read even for an A in English class will now be flying off the shelves because of the Twilight name drop!! Won't teenage girls be sorely disappointed when they realize Edward Cullen doesn't actually APPEAR in this book.

Case #3 -

Bella & Edward BARBIES! Yes, you know you've hit it HUGE when the world is clamoring for your likeness in doll form!

ARGGH!!! SERIOUSLY!!! I really am turning cold to the whole Twilight saga. The only reason I'm excited for New Moon is because A- I'm going with all my friends at midnight and B -
K, seriously give me some perspective my friends!
I may be up in the night! I'm the kind of person who does NOT like to be trendy. I like "discovering" things or waiting until all the hype has gone away to delve into new things. (woah, type A personality?) I'm just sad that it seems like the overexposure for me has really made things less exciting for me. Eclipse . . eh.... Breaking Dawn. . . well, that one never had a chance with me!

Are you
1. Still in love with Twilight as when you first discovered it?
2. Indifferent to all the media hype, attention and teenage girls bluthering over Rob Pattinson?
3. Starting to get sick and tired of even HEARING "twilight" name dropped everywhere?

Leave me your comments! Which camp are you in? (And not Edward or Jacob!)

AND PLEASE HELP ME GET EXCITED FOR NEW MOON TO COME OUT!!!!
