Football is on? Sorry, gotta finish “New Moon”

Dear Twilight & Stephenie Meyer,

Sometimes, it doesn’t matter that the Philadelphia Eagles sucked 6 weeks ago, had their quarterback benched and are now only 2 wins away from winning the Superbowl.

If you think that all the attendees at the Eagle’s game-day party I went to today were giving Andy Reid and Donovan McNabb their undivided attention, you would be wrong.

Steph, you’ll be happy to know that my best friend got HER priorities straight and only looked up from New Moon once when I came in to say hi to her and the teeny tiny baby in her belly (CONGRATS AP!)

Football- don’t mess with the Twilight Saga. Don’t even think about it.

In other news, I’m really trying to convince AP to name the baby Reneesme (since she’s only on New Moon she doesn’t know who that is yet) I KNOW, my very own best friend, only on the 2nd Twi book! I’ve kinda failed as a friend…

Anyway, Steph, thanks for distracting her from football and giving me some entertainment as I enjoyed her “ooh’s” and “ahh’s.” (She was on the part where Edward comes back, obvs)

XO,
me

Dear Twilight,

That’s all.

Loves,

Me

It makes us happy when we find others just as obsessed…

This conversation happened via AIM chat and e-mail with my college roommate:

Dear UnintendedChoice,

11pm 12/14 via AIM chat: i know you understand this, but i just spent the last 40 minutes googling twilight because i don’t want to do my [grad school] final.

i want to go see the movie again, i think i might go one afternoon this week by myself

We discussed her thoughts on Breaking Dawn (which she just finished) and I told her about Midnight Sun– WHICH SHE DID NOT KNOW ABOUT! (oh- do YOU not know about it? Stop what you’re doing. Must read now) We said good-night.  I awoke this morning to this email:

4:03 am 12/15 e-mail: if i do bad on my final it’s all your fault because I just finished reading midnight sun.  And thank goodness it wasn’t the whole book or I probably wouldn’t go to bed and wouldn’t study at all.

darn twilight and it’s irrestible plot.  darn edward cullen for being so darn attractive and perfect.

Yes, Lucy, darn ALL of it… Sigh…

Sometimes Twilight IS worth losing your job over..

We received this message today via Facebook and just had to share:

Dear LettersToTwilight bloggers,

i have spent each of my prep times (45 mins- we have to prep things each day) this week reading the 5th twilight [midnight sun]. so if anyone finds out and fires me, i’m hoping you can possibly hire me to be a full-time blog writer on your blog. benefits and retirement included. just something comparable to what the [school] district is giving me.

Leanne, we’d love to have you. We understand that sometimes you lose your job because you just.can’t.stop the obsession. (Currently I am about to lose my husband if I don’t join him for dinner in 10 seconds..)

A lesson for all of our readers- Twilight and all things Twilight (like Robert Pattinson) require sacrifice. But it is oh so worth it…

Oh no! That was 47 seconds…
