This is a spoiler alert, but only if you haven't read Eclipse or Breaking Dawn yet; and if you haven't, you're probably not stopping by here anyway, but just in case . . .
I cannot (or refuse to) live outside of the Twilight universe yet. It's where I first fell in love with a boy named Edward Anthony Masen Cullen and then a man named Robert Thomas Pattinson.
Oops! How did that pic of
(I kid. I kid.)
The past.
The present.
(And what a gift he is!)

JJ at Twitarded has a much
better pic, though. So click here.
The future.
Bel Ami
Yes, I'm a little worried about the mustache for
this role, because clearly he can grow one.)
(JJ's fav pic!)
Unbound Captives
Think they'll let him rock the beanie?
And if he does grow his hair out? *died*
I feel like I'm cheating on both of them if I watch, listen to, or read anything that I can't link back to their worlds within a five-minute segue. I couldn't even tell you what the number one Top 40 song is right now. When I'm on the computer at home or at work, I listen to songs like this:
especially this one:
You see, I've been listening to the audiobook versions of the Twilight Saga books in my car since early August and am currently on Eclipse again. Which FINALLY brings us to the point of this post. Still with me?! Cut to Chapter 12 - Time. Bella and Edward are sharing their views on marriage.
Bella whines, "I'm not
that girl, Edward. The one who gets married right out of high school like some small-town hick who got knocked up by her boyfriend! Do you know what people would think? Do you realize what century this is? People don't just get married at eighteen! Not smart people, not responsible, mature people! I wasn't going to be that girl! That's not who I am. . . ."
Edward, ever the gentleman, replies, "Maybe we should rethink this, Bella. I know I don't get to deflower you until Breaking Dawn, but what if that damn movie never gets made?!!"
"Kristen, do you think we should
wait until Breaking Dawn, too?"
"You're so funny f*cking, Rob.
I mean, you're so f*cking funny."
Actually, Edward replies, "You see, Bella, I was always that boy. In my world, I was already a man . . . [He paused, cocking (focus, Lisa, focus) his head to the side.] "I was going to say that if I had found someone, but that won't do. If I had found you, there isn't a doubt in my mind how I would have proceeded. I was that boy, who would have — as soon as I discovered that you were what I was looking for — gotten down on one knee and endeavored to secure your hand. . . ."
Kristen could really give the papz
the finger and marry Rob on the set.
The last place they'd ever expect it.
Just sayin'.
Edward continues, "Can you see my side, Bella, even a little bit?"
And here it comes, peeps. This is what Bella is thinking, 'And for one second, I could. I saw myself in a long skirt and a high-necked lace blouse with my hair piled up on my head. I saw Edward looking dashing in a light suit with a bouquet of wildflowers in his hand, sitting beside me on a porch swing. I shook my head and swallowed. I was just having Anne of Green Gables flashbacks.'
That may explain this.
But it doesn't explain this.
Let's pretend that's Rosalie/Nikki and Bella/Kristen
above so that we can segue in to this.
(You see, Mama Cougar over at
The Cougar's Den recently tweeted about a rumor that there's going to be some big announcement made that one of the cast members is bi and her money is on Nikki. LOL!)
Bella continues to argue her case telling Edward, "...since we're living in my world for the moment, maybe we should go with the times, if you know what I mean."
"But on the other hand," he countered, "you will soon be leaving time behind you altogether. So why should the transitory customs of one local culture affect the decision so much?"
[Bella] pursed [her] lips. "When in Rome?"
When in Rome indeed!
Like Rome Rob, I'm signing off.
