My Life in a Mitten

This may contain some spoilers, so if you haven’t read the 2nd book in the Twilight series…don’t read on.

I finished Twilight today…it was great. Of course I was right into the 2nd book, New Moon, as soon as I was done. I am not sure how far I got into the book (I am listening, mind you) but I know if I was reading I wouldn’t have put it down till I was done.

Something was happening today while I was listening to the book…*spoiler alert*…when Edward was saying goodbye to Bella, I was devastated. I was this close to tears from that point on…omg when Bella was in the woods…I almost had to leave my desk because I just needed to go to the bathroom to cry. I didn’t want to leave my iPod and stop listening to do so though!! LOL

To me, this is silly and crazy. I am not generally emotional when reading/listening. Sure, I read Marley and Me and cried at the end…and I’ve listened to other books and cried…and omg when Dumbledore died…forget it!! I was completely bawling then!!!

But I never thought this would effect me quite like it has. I said though, that I get into books when I listen to too many all at once with the same characters/story line. I mean even now if I really sit here and think about everything….I still get kind of weepy. How pathetic is that??

I have no clue how I’ll get through tomorrow…omg and the weekend…without listening??? I may have to sneak a few hours in this weekend.

I’ll try to be strong for tomorrow’s listening.

Well I am almost finished with listening to Twilight. I have about an hour left in it…and then I move on to the next one! I am so glad that I got that book. It’s really great!

I bought the 2nd and 3rd book in the series and will buy the 4th as well as her adult novel, The Host once I finish the other two books…so probably next week.

One thing is for sure, it definitely helps me keep my butt in my seat at work when I have something good to listen to!

I can’t wait for the movie in November. I sure hope I can find someone willing to go with me!! Maybe I’ll drag the hubbs along. I’ve seen plenty of horror movies that have warped my brain…he owes me a movie! LOL

Only bad thing with listening to many books in a row with the same characters is that after a while I am thinking they’re real. LOL totally crazy, I know…but I kind of get sucked in. I did that with the Stephanie Plum books by Janet Evanovich…I listened to like 5 or 6 of those books one after another and after a while I expected to see Ranger or Joe Morelli on the street LOL Crazy.

Oh well the first book is great and I can’t wait to get more into the series.

Other random stuffs….

I have a very hurty cold sore on my lip. I hate it when I get those!!! First they are all puffy and then when the top falls off they get really hurty for a few days. Dumb herpe!!!! And my dh keeps making fun of me too!! *pout!* I cannot wait for this dumb thing to be gone!!

The fall colors around here are beautiful!! i really want to take the new camera out for a spin and take some pictures of the trees around. There’s this HUGE cemetary by work that has some of the most lovely trees in it! I wish it wasn’t so far away from the house or I’d go there and take the camera. maybe Friday I’ll take it to work with me. I need a smaller bag for it so it’s more portable. Right now I have this HUGE bag. I’ll have to check out amazon or something for a new bag.

GH is on in a few…I am excited for the halloween show! I can actually stay up and watch it this year. I wasn’t as into the show last year so I didn’t really care, but I’m all in this year.

I finally ordered Twilight by Stephanie Meyer on audio. I mainly wanted to see what all the hype is about I guess. I’m about 4 chapters in and it’s really pretty good. I’m glad I made the purchase. I’ll have to see the movie when it comes out in November if I like the book and will definitely be getting the rest of them on audio.

I find it really interesting that the author is Mormon and she’s writing about Vampires and everything. Kind of weird…but in a cool way. Even Christians can find that stuff interesting without falling into some dark whatever.

I don’t have much to say besides that…and I have some HUGE herpe on my lip!! I HATE cold sores!! YUCK!

Of course I also didn’t have anything to put on it, so I went out and had to buy a cold sore arsenol. Hopefully it won’t last too long. It’s huge and hurty though.
