Twilight Crazy

So, this is my first post & I just have to say that my Twilight world has been crazy for quite a while. My collection of things has gotten way out of control and my friend and I threw a Twilight part Fri. night and yes we made Twilight martinis and played my Twilight board game. I love being a Twilgiht geek. However today I started thinking about why I love being a geek so much. Some of my friends look at me like I have lost my mind, like they are so far above this fleeting thing called Twilight and it's factuation with a fictional character named Edward. Oh they look at me and see the eyes of a silly teenage girl and wonder in their oh so grown up 30 something minds what must be wrong with her and how does her husband put up with her. Well I wonder the same thing too quite often but I believe the answer lies in the fact that I don't want to have the answer. I believe it lies in the fact that so many days as a 30 something Mommy of four we have to get together and comtemplate our children's education and polotics and religion and so many things that make us so responsible and wonderful. But, for just a little bit and maybe longer for me, I wanted to talk about nothing but fictional characters and use that part of my imagination that had lied dormant since the days of high school and longing over a someone who was oh so hot. Is it possible for just a moment to feel like this book has made so many of us feel like when we were teenagers and we had the whole world stop because some guy actually looked at us and the drama that unfolded was life altering. Nothing alters my life lately unless it involves running out of milk. I don't want to give up my Twilight obsession, addiction, craziness or whatever label you put on it because it makes me feel what has been missing for quite a while. That I have an imagination and I'm not afraid to use it. Oh, and ladies life doesn't have to be so darn deep.
