Serious Values For Such An Unconventional Story

I never made it to the theaters for the screening of Twilight which is odd. I'm totally into the whole romanticism of vampires (not the demon stories so much as the forever love stories) and really enjoy teen movies. Don't judge!

It was not until after Twilight was out of the theaters that I found out that the author of the book by the same title (Stephanie Myers) is a mormon. Interesting. I am not a mormon, but since I have many friends who are, I have gotten a little glimpse into their values and beliefs.... love story you say? Very Interesting. I then did a little research and found out that this love story is the old fashion kind, the kind that I LOVE. You know, the kind where two people actually get to know each other and don't give too much of themselves away... what!?! This is a vampire story right? Ok, so I'll cut to the chase. I just bought this movie (sight unseen) and am set to pick it up at 11:00 p.m. this evening at the release party being held at the video store. Yes, this DVD debut is being rolled out at a release party full on with a costume contest (character make-up encouraged) and "good guy/bad guy" debate. I think the thing is going to be catered as well. Wow! This is going to be an experience. Someone mentioned that Stephanie Myers was even going to make an appearance at the video store on the west side, I think they said that she lives in AZ. This is beyond crazy and is building the suspense to see this film. But I am a sucker for a good love story and even more of a sucker for a VAMPIRE LOVE STORY!!! This better not suck (pardon the puns... overkill)!

Edit Note: Apparently I cannot pick this DVD up until midnight. The party starts at 11:00 p.m. for anyone who might be going. Wanted to make sure that the correct info is out there. Also, the Stephanie Myers appearance is a rumor...

Past 7 Days....

RIP My Friend

I think this is what drowning feels like. I lost a friend yesterday. And I'm afraid that I am just having a very hard time finding the words to express what the world lost. I'm having a hard time KNOWING she's gone. I just can't believe that Trisha Giallella died yesterday. I've known Trish for a large chunk of my life; she was the sister of my sister's ex husband. But for all the years that I knew her, I never REALLY knew her until very recently. Oh sure, over the years I would listen in awe at all her stories.... stories of making movies in Hollywood, the wild parties and dating Rick James. To a young girl of 15, those stories seemed like something from TV itself and far removed from my own piddly little life. The fact that she even shared her stories with me sent me into a stuper. I always had stars in my eyes when I listened to Trish talk, she was so glamorous and very, very tough... very passionate and good at "living". I...

So Lame

So over at Paper Vineyard, the challenge was to create a birthday project and it COULDN'T be a card. I've personally been creating WAY too many cards lately so I was happy to try my hand at something new..... only I didn't. :( Instead, I was busy preparing for last week's Cricut Swarm. Now, while I missed creating a project specifically for our Birthday Non-Card challenge, I figured the cupcake box that I made would fit the bill PERFECTLY for a birthday-themed project. The box also has an insert for a cupcake to fit inside. I made it with my Cricut (cuz of the whole Cricut Swarm bit) and while I ADORE this box, I sort of had a little melt down making it and I decided that this is the last Provo Craft product I will ever buy.... let me share why (read through to find out the cartridge I used for this project)! Most of you know that I DESPISE Provo Craft. I hate that the Cricut is a one-of-kind product that I loved....
