Twilight time
I have read the Twilight saga, I enjoyed Twilight, hated most of New Moon (not a fan of Jacob), Eclipse was okay but all the crap with Jacob and his pack, boring, Breaking Dawn totally gross ick factor. After seeing previews for the movie version I was less than excited, it looked so cheesy!! So needless to say I didn’t rush to the theaters in my Team Edward T-shirt (which I don’t own) ready to lap up the Edward and Bella drama. Last night I finally watch Twilight, I found it semi enjoyable, but mostly hilarious! I almost fell off the couch a couple of times I was laughing so hard!
The scenes that really killed me:
- The fact that when we first met Eric at school I was thinking “I don’t remember a gay guy in the book”.
- Edwards’s hair!!! What the hell is that thing on his head?
- Jacob’s awful wig
- Edwards face when he caught a whiff of Bella for the first time, come on that was just pitiful!
- Edward and Bella’s first fast passed running scene. Did they just have a picture of a mountain and a picture of Edward and Bella on a popsicle stick that they moved up the mountain?
- Edward “sparkling” in the sun, seriously did they have any CGI money because that just looked like a lot of glitter lotion.
- The angsty filled scene as Edward explains to Bella what he is, it was so angsty that he couldn’t stand still or keep from randomly climbing trees.
- Jasper’s insanely petrified looking face the entire movie, I know he is fighting the urge to feed, but come on!
- The crazy overacting that was done in the final fight scene between Edward and James.
I thought they did a pretty good job being faithful to the book but I did wonder why they changed:
- Why did they have the bad vampires killing so close to and then in Forks?
- Why didn’t they have Bella cooking for Charlie all the time? What was up with going to the diner? Not having her do all the cooking is going to make her reason for not wanting to leave him because he can’t take care of himself hard to sell.
Things that I liked:
- I liked the casting of Bella, Kristen Stewart did a good job.
- I loved Bella’s lullaby.
- They mostly got the emotion from the book into the movie.

Kayaking 09

Melissa and I went kayaking for the first time this year! It was a lovely day, still a little chilly but we had a great time. Good thing we did becuase the weather turned cold again the next day!

We watched this guy pull that chair out of the lake and then paddle off with it, we asked him if he was going to offer rides, he said he was thinking about it.

I can't stop looking at the site!
Meatloaf with a layer of Mac and Cheese wrapped in bacon. I could do without the bacon part but the rest sound kind of good.
