Bitten.

Somebody needs to help me.

Sooooo....we're back from our trip to Texas, and of course we had a great time with family & friends (and enchiladas, and tamales, and....)

That being said, we are SOOO glad to be back surrounded by trees and water again. Especially since our current home is set in an area plays so much better into my new freakish, fantastic, obsession: The Movie. The book. The *phenomena* that is Twilight.



So, my adorable teenage babysitter (pictured above), who you'll remember from this post, first mentioned the book to me as something she was reading while we were out on our session a few weeks ago. Being the literature snob that I am, I didn't pay it much thought, but did manage to bookmark the title in my brain thinking I may watch the movie on HBO a year from now some quiet afternoon when I haven't got anything better to do. Over the break, we heard that it was the number one movie out there, so I convinced the hubster to go see it with me while we were killing an afternoon.

FELL - IN - LOVE!!! So, I got the book. Read it in a span of two days. Only reason it wasn't finished in one was b/c of that pesky holiday last Thursday which required my participation and derailed my time spent with Edward and Bella. Then I picked up New Moon, and finished it in one day. And am now sadly, anxiously pacing the floor waiting for baby boy to wake up so I can haul him off to Barnes & Noble in search of Eclipse and Breaking Dawn. Both were sold out yesterday on our trip to Target. Dangit.

I am such a 13-year-old.

It's really pathetic when on Sunday evening I was excited to see our adorable aforementioned babysitter (note to self...beg to borrow her copies of Eclipse & Breaking Dawn if Barnes & Noble proves non-productive...) simply to gush about Edward Cullen. Seriously, girlfriends, do yourself a favor and indulge your inner 17-year-old....you'll totally thank me. Read the book. Go see the movie. Then you'll know what we're all flushing and gushing about!

Hope you all had a great Thanksgiving...more soon...I have a book to read again. :) PB
