Did Anyone Else Get That "Jacob" Is Shark Boy???

I just saw Twilight, and wow, it has knocked me on my ass.

The problem w/ me is that I am a stubborn, self-righteous, dreamer. Many can read/watch these intense love stories and be like "aw what an interesting story" and then go on about their lives. Me, I read and/or watch and get fired up. I'm just too stubborn to believe that something that intense cannot be true and think that I deserve it and that I can find it. See what I meant? My description of myself is very true to form.

Do I want a vampire in love w/ me, no. The whole climbing trees thing can go on w/out me. But do I want someone to look deeply into my eyes and say "I don't have the strength to stay away from you anymore", oh fuck yeah. Where is he?

But then, as w/ all daydreams, it ends. The reality of the moment settles in, like now, realizing it is 10 minutes until midnight. My family sleeps. We have a birthday party to plan and throw this Saturday. We laugh more than we argue. There is never a time that I do not feel loved.

And w/ that, I am content again. So maybe I am like everyone else afterall. Who knew!

I've never seen Twilight, and I doubt I ever will.

I've seen twilight like three time already, I think, but I haven't realized that Jacob is Shark Boy up until I read this post. Imagine that!

Where could Lava Girl be? :))

Marf- Why would you not see it?

Maggie- It took me awhile for it to register. My sons love the Sharkboy/Lavagirl movie.

It's just one of those things I don't have much interest in.

Marf- Gotcha
