LOVE IT, LOVE IT, LOVE IT!!! Is that a good enough of a review, lol? Personally, I liked it WAY better than Twilight or New Moon...just my opinion. And, although I used to be 100% TEAM EDWARD I have done a complete 360...and now am "hopelessly devoted to Jacob!" *BIG GRIN* I mean, persistence is sexy and one thing Jacob has, is PERSISTENCE! It took me about this long...maybe a little earlier, while reading the books to change from Edward to Jacob fan, and the movies did make it a little easier to make the switch; afterall, lovely Jacob did walk around shirtless for the majority of the film *giggles* LOVE YOU CALEB! I'm being a bit dramatic but as I wrote in my last post, I unleashed my inner tween for this film and once it's unleashed it takes a while to suppress! :-P Anyways, that was my take...I think "Bella's" acting abilities in this movie were greatly improved over the last two, so that was a nice change. The bedroom scene was a bit intense but I think the director did an accurate job of capturing the scene from the book...still, not something I would probably want my 13 year old watching! But anyways....that was my take on it...all in all, a 9 out of 10, just because I'm a fanatic!
On to other things since I have fallen behind on my actually "writing" blogs....as I tend to have a more comedy/humor blog now. Tomorrow marks the first of July and also the month where I will hopefully get pregnant again with a little brother or sister for Noah Bug. :-) We will know by the end of the month and as the day approaches, I'm getting more and more nervous...excited nervous of course. Also, Caleb and I might be moving a bit sooner than we expected...we weren't planning on any raises during the first year, but he is advancing a bit more quickly than we had thought so instead of moving in May we might end up moving in October or November...that is still up for discussion at this point. I'm not really in a rush either way, but it would definitely be nice to have a little more room...that's for sure! Not to mention, I'm not really a huge fan of the street we currently live on...but, not going to complain anymore. It's been a great first home to start a family in! I will definitely miss it when we move elsewhere!
And...random thought to end the post...what I'm most looking forward to about moving is having a backyard for our precious little one(s?) to play in. Right now, I'm too much of a scaredy cat to walk up and down our street just because of some of the weirdos who live on it...bleh! Annnnnnd...getting a PUPPY for Noah! That is definitely on our list of priorities for when we move...because every little one needs a puppy to grow up with! :-) We will need to discuss that more as well, because Caleb is in love with idea of a BIG DOG...like a Rottweiler, and I'm NOT a fan!!! I'm thinking something a bit smaller, maybe along the lines of a Feist or a Pug. Caleb says we need to have a guard dog...and I'm like, "Honey, that's what guns are for!" :-) Can you tell I was raised in Craig County? Night everyone!
"Yes, that's right. Ralph Nader, perennial Green Party candidate for the U.S. presidency MAY have sat in this very chair! It was used in his Washington, DC campaign headquarters until I purchased it on Craiglist several months ago. It has a nice red, commie upholstery and a sleek black plastic backing. The wheels don't function well, but that is a small price to pay for state control of the means of production."
2) I want some orange juice
"I'll give you $2 + cost if you'll deliver me some orange juice with receipt. I'm too lazy to get it myself. I live right by University Drive in Elon. Thank you."

3) Seeking adult drunk clown for 30th birthday party
"We need an Adult Drunk Clown who is good at getting drunk and stupid. No need to do any clown tricks, just hang out and drink a shit load. We will be hopping around to different bars and want a clown to tag a long and drink heavely. He doesn't even need to socialize with anyone, just drink."

4) Duck mask
"Full head rubber mask, old, has discoloration on white feather part from age, storage. Hey I got it on my big head, so it works that way."

5) Woman to sit in my bath tub full of noodles, wearing a bathing suit
"I will pay you $1 to sit in my bathtub full of noodles while you wear a one piece bathing suit. I will not be home, nor will anyone else while you do this. I will leave the key for you, and you will sit at your leisure. DO NOT bring any sauce. I will season the pasta after I return home prior to dinner."

6) Wanted: Pony
"My kid is having a birthday coming up soon, and there'll be a lot of children around, so I figured I'd better get a pony. If you do have a pony you could sell, please contact me, and then immediately start putting barbeque sauce in it's bedding or add some Lawry's to it's salt lick - I like to marinade it early and long, so that the flavor is at it's peak by the time I take possession."

7) I have a huge bathroom
"I am a female in my mid 60's and I am looking for a room mate. Times are tight and I need some extra money. I am willing to rent out my bathroom in my 1 bedroom east village home. My bathroom is large. You can easily put a twin air mattress in there. I only ask that when I need to use the bathroom, you or your air mattress are not in it. I do ask that when you are in the apartment, you confine yourself to the bathroom. I do not feel comfortable with a stranger walking around my living room. This might change as I get to know you better."

8) Pope hats
"Because of this terrible economy, I'm having to shut down my business. I have OVER 1300 Pope hats (replicas) that I REALLY need to get rid of. The pope hats came from China and are a little too small for most adult heads and are also irritating to the skin, so you would need to have long hair or wear a smaller hat underneath (just like the REAL POPE). Dogs do not like to wear these pope hats, but maybe a large cat or maybe a nice dog would wear one."

9) Need someone to hide easter eggs in my apartment when im not home
"I need someone to hide easter eggs in my apt when i am not there ! They are small and filled with candy! I would like to find them myself on sunday! I am willing to pay! Serious inquiries only!"

10) Free couch, if you can bend time and/or space
"I have a free couch for anyone who can get it back out of my room. It's a comfy couch, cool stripe velvet in great shape, impossibly uncomfortable sleeper, but otherwise easily worth $50-75 bucks in Craigslist land. So why am I listing in for free? Because I am pretty sure it is physically impossible to remove this thing from my second story bedroom down the narrow hallway, down the narrower staircase and out the front door of my little Victorian duplex."

11) I took your purse and felt a connection
"Tuesday night around 11:30. On 53rd btw 1st and 2nd. You came out of the subway and I followed you. You looked over your shoulder, saw me and started walking faster. I ran up, grabbed your arm, took your purse and ran away. I've done many a snatch-and-grab but no one has ever stuck in my mind like you. There was a quick moment when our eyes met that I felt something strong. I think you felt it too. If I wasn't so shy (or so committing a crime) I would have asked your name. I, of course, later got your name from your drivers license. So Jennifer if you'd like to get together for a drink sometime get back to me."

12) Looking for bridesmaids
"So, my fiancee and I are getting married in June. He has 8 groomsmen lined up and I only have one bridesmaid. So, I need some girls who are attractive and around my age to stand up in my wedding. You can be single or taken. It doesn't matter....you just have to be hot. But, not hotter then me. Email me for more information. The wedding will be in Madison and you won't have to pay for a thing."

13) Do you have a small, incontinent dog?
"Or perhaps you work for a small dog rescue of some sort. Either way, I have a package of small doggy diapers. I don't want to throw them out coz they are pretty expensive. (as someone with a small, incontnent dog would already know). Please don't try to put them on a cat. It won't work. Trust me."

15) Disgruntled American seeks Canadian for political asylum, maybe more
"Are you a lonely, possibly desperate Canadian woman aged 18-50? Tired of trying to find a good man among your flannel clad, Labatt's drinking, moose hunting country men? Willing to take in an American who is fed up with his country? Then I'm the guy for you! Maybe you're a bit overweight or suffer from "Lifelong Ugly Duckling" syndrome. I don't care."

16) Autographed copy of Plato's Republic
"1st edition of The Republic signed by its author. There is of course a reasonable amount of wear and tear, (light highlighting and underlining, dog-eared pages, back cover missing, etc.), but it is in overall good condition considering its age."

17) Ferocious attack kitten
"This destructive kitty has been trained as a proud warrior and will fiercely defend your house, even against you. Has a very soft and furry belly, like a teddy bear - however he will bite your face if you try to touch it. For the love of God, someone please take this thing out of my house."

19) Personal texting assistant
"I get 40 - 50 texts an hour, I cant handle my workload plus texting responsibilities. My phone gets too full and needs deleted every couple hours. This is a full time position and you must be where ever I am at, because my phone is always with me. Serious inquiries only."

20) 300 stuffed penguins
"I'm going through a pretty weird time in my life right now--having just gone through a break-up and graduated college and temporarily living in my parents' house before I move out for good in in the fall, though I remain unemployed because my philosophy degree is at *such* a premium--and sifting through my room (which has become a strange amalgam of my adolescence and burgeoning adulthood), it's been brought to my attention that I probably won't "catch a man" or have anyone believe I'm about to turn 23 with 300 penguins and a bunch of purple furniture around, that looking at my current room one might think some sort of 13-year-old with developmental issues is living here."
