How do I confess this? And truly make you understand? I am not joking when I say I have an obsessive personality. I have tried to verbally convince people before and it doesn't work. So you can think it's a joke if you choose. I'm pretty sure my immediate family knows of my problem, and a few friends. Here is a list of things that have captured my passion in the past:
Sobe
Grapefruit (Everyday from December to February)
Golf (held captive for three years)
Boating (prisoner for several years....missed weddings and showers)
The OC (So in love with Seth Cohen that I will name my child after him. COuld there be a better couple than Seth and Summer?)
Julia Roberts (Back in the Pretty Woman days. I lied to my mom to get out of the house to see an R rated show. Of course I felt guilty and confessed to her, while also demanding she lighten up because I was going to see R movies and there was no sense in lying about it)
Not working full time (definitely an obsession...going strong for....since I was...I can't remember but a very long time now)
Working (Even though I don't want to work full-time, I probably do, some weeks I end up working 80 hrs a week. I can't say no to work. I have to go. And sometimes I get sick thinking about the work I miss. I must get a life. And a husband. And make my friends and family like me again.)
Twilight--This is the latest obsession.
Pictured below is the night the 4th and last book was released in the series. Traci, Candice and I joined hundreds of other crazies at midnight to get our copies. FYI--the book was LAME (other than it made me want to be a vampire)
Not a surprise I'm sure. Most people have been obsessed with the series. And since the movie has been released, people have revived the simmering obsession into the boiling hot mess it was in the past. Damnit! So have I. I DID NOT like the movie. Maybe it's because I had to stay up until midnight to watch it. Or I went swimming at 10pm to find a second wind, only to find a headache. Maybe because I was sitting next to someone who at every scene would say, "That IS NOT what they said." Or would improvise some of the lines, Like "Edward, Remember who you are." And she would add..."a child of God." Maybe it's because the people I was with wouldn't share their carmel apples with me. But mostly I think it's because:
-Rosalie WAS NOT beautiful.
-The editor just flipped coins about which parts to cut, or was only 10 yrs of age.
-Pet names like Spider Monkey?
-Climbing trees? Professing their love in trees?
-Edward scary?
-Some very bad acting in a hospital bed.
-And most important, absolutely NO character or relationship development at all!
See, I'm obsessed. So badly obsessed that I had to go see it again. And I like it WAY better.
PS..I did lie in one part of this post for the purpose of entertainment. The truth is the carmel apple was offered to me and I did take a piece.

Oh my you are so funny!!! I agree 100 % the movie was a train wreck! I did talk about Twilight on my blog it was just a post down from the one you saw. I'm so glad that a lot of people did not like it that much either, I'm totally sticking to the book. I will see it again, but I'm going to wait until dollar's to go. It was such a bad show, the baseball was amazing but other than that, no good.
You are too funny! I loved the movie...books are always better. It was just like I envisioned. You do have obsessions and most of them crack me up! Did you forget about frozen yogurt?
Oh my my my...I liked Twilight. I do agree with all the things you didn't like BUT my mind was able to make-up the lack-of.
I love Edward...I wish he was hotter. It's probably better for my marriage that I think my husband is hotter than Edward.
You make me laugh hard.
