I'm not ashamed to admit it

Currently reading the Twilight books (very fast, entertaining) - and went to see the movie a few nights ago. Will probably go see it again tonight. This is what makes paying to see this movie twice worthwhile. Yow.
And as an added bonus, here is a non-photoshopped* picture of me and Robert Pattinson. Don't we look great together?

*Complete lie.


Best. Christmas. Song. EVER.

There is a tiny part of me that feels bad laughing until I cry when listening to this, but the sheer joy the song brings makes up for it. Awesome.

The truth shall set you free

Proof at last! I take a lot of crap from my friends about watching cartoons, and now I give you documentation that despite all the protests and teasing, they like them just as much. A-ha!

Who is the other one?

Guess what I found this morning??? Wheeljack is going to be in the new Transformers cartoon!!! WOOHOO!. I like Wheeljack :) Although, I am wondering why they gave him that little beard thing on his 'chin' - he doesn't have a mouth, so that seems a bit out of place. Oh well :) AND he looks pretty much exactly like the 80's version! Neat!

Dear Santa,

Here is my Christmas list. I think we both know how my behavior for the year ranks, but it can't hurt to make my requests anyway, right? Here goes.

1. Red vs. Blue box set
2. Kitchenaid mixer
3. Snow boots
4. Xbox 360
5. a pony
6. a Karma
7. The Piemaker

Thanks Santa. I'll leave the cookies out :)

Okay, really? REALLY?

This makes me sick. I just can't quite get my head around this kind of stuff...not that religion is my thing (and aside from the fact that Christmas is now officially a secular holiday), but this kind of mindless lunacy doesn't seem to celebrate the spirit of the season:

1. At a Wal-Mart store in Columbus, Ohio, Nikki Nicely, 19, jumped onto a man’s back and pounded his shoulders when he tried to take a 40-inch Samsung flat-screen television to which she had laid claim. “That’s my TV!” Ms. Nicely shouted. “That’s my TV!”
A police officer and security guard intervened, but not before Ms. Nicely took an elbow in the face. In the end, she was the one with the $798 television, marked down from $1,000. “That’s right,” she cried as her adversary walked away. “This here is my TV!”

2. That guy who was killed at another WalMart when the crazed mob outside physically broke the store doors down and trampled that poor employee to death. Merry Christmas to his family, huh? Thank goodness you won't have to deal with the tragedy of your own precious little angels not getting that new Hannah Montana doll they HAD TO HAVE RIGHT NOW.

3. For real now, I'm going to be sick. I want a 360 too, but I'll be damned if I will ever engage in this kind of mature, adult behavior for one...

Disgusting. Hey kids, enjoy playing Guitar Hero - you'll need to keep busy since Mommy and Daddy are at the courthouse trying to make bail for assault & battery.
