Twliight Saga


Have you ever been into something so much that it emcompasses your thoughts in Everything you do? You analize it against all else. Well, that would be me as of late. My mom introduced me to the book Twilight about three weeks ago and sent me the three books out by Stephenie Meyer. It is a series of books about a human girl, Bella and a vampire, Edward. The author graduated from BYU, is a member of the church and the books are Great! If you haven't read them, you should! It is a fun read and I never imagined that vampires could be so cool. I am more the Jane Austen type reader, but I have now broadened my scope! The last and final book comes out August 2nd and I am finding it very difficult to wait that long, so I started over again with book 1 and will see what a missed the first time I read through them. The movie, based up the first book, will come out in December! It will be a great year for movies with Harry Potter #6, Twilight and don't forget about Indiana Jones in May. Holy Cow! I don't normally get so excited, but how fun to look forward to!

Political Junkies!

Could politics becoming too much of a topic in our family? Andrew informed Wayne on the way home from church yesterday that he would not be voting for Mike Anderson as state representative and would be voting for Thomas Latham. This statement surprised Wayne. I don't know why? Andrew is always Mr. Analytical and on the In with what is going on. Andrew's comments still surprise me too! Wayne and Andrew got into a big discussion on these two representatives and in the end, Andrew got frustrated with Wayne trying to be positive with both candidates. His statement ended with, "Well, I can't vote for another ten years anyway so I am not going to worry about it anymore!

Tuesday, March 4th, is election day! Thank Goodness! I am tired of election mail and phone calls with all this mess! I won't even comment on John McCain. I just end up hanging up the phone during the surveys because I just can't bring myself to state that I will vote for John McCain or Huckabee. Filling in a dot will be a lot easier than hearing my voice state that I can vote for anyone, but Mitt! What a blow this has been and not been easy for me to get over! It's been weeks and I am still depressed over it! When will it end? Probably oh, NEVER!
