Wiggin Out!

My pledge class and I went to see Eclipse tonight along with every other tween and 40 something mom in Kansas City. While I wish I could be one of the people who bash the vampire phenomenon like other people I know who shall remain nameless....I am obsessed! Obsessed with the books anyways! The movies (while I continue to see them opening night) are just not that good. Robert Pattison is the only thing about the movies that I can say I love!

With that being said here are a few things I need to get off of my chest...

A. Movie Bella...I can fully appreciate that Bella is supposed to be "homely" if you will, but ugly??? They make her look terrible...She is not a vampire just yet, so being terrifyingly pale is unacceptable. I highly doubt that 2 guys are going to fight over that...Hollywood, it just isn't believable!

B. Dear Taylor Lautner,
You should have stuck with the whole "Shark Boy and Lava Girl" gig. Enough said.

C. This may be the most important talking point that I have...Cullen Hair!
What is up with it? I feel that since the Twilight saga is this huge phenomenon and continues to break records at the summer box office, the costume designers should be able to get some better wigs, or better yet, hire people with the correct hair color!

Exhibit A: When I see this picture I think Randy Quaid in "Kingpin" not insanely strong and heartbreakingly beautiful vampire...

And then there is this...


As you can see in the picture on the right (from the first movie) Bella has a normal looking hairline...I mean obviously the mullet that K-Stew is rocking these days won't do, but did they have to give her Jacob's old wig???

With all of that bashing I just did...I still love my Twilight, and will be in line next year when "Breaking Dawn" comes out!

Here I am

Okay...I have tried this blogging thing before. I was not so good at it. I entered one post (which I then deleted) and never touched it again. I didn't know how I felt about the idea...I mean do people really want to hear what I have to say? Is that sort of narcissistic of me to assume that people cared what I was doing? These are the thoughts that consumed me as I tried to decide if I should start a blog but...Here I am! I am now a committed blogger! As you read this blog (anyone out there?) You will see what I am about! I am just a stay-at-home mom who loves to craft, plan parties, spend time with friends and family, obsess over pop culture (I love you Rob Pattinson), and the most important thing...Hang out with Luci (my 15 month old baby girl who has made my life so happy, blessed, exhausting, and meaningful!)
To Katie,Pitts, and Connie Jo...I completely recognize that grammar and punctuation may be of concern to you as you read this blog...Accept and move on :)
