An embarassing confession

Ok so I have this confession.

Apparently I have turned into one of THOSE girls.

I had a friend turn me on to this book. I had heard about it, but had little interest. I bought it and it sat on my nightstand for almost a month until I picked it up and my new obsession began.

A little book called Twilight.

I had heard how this book has swept the nation in the 9-18 year old girl demographic. I clearly am nowhere near that demo. But I thought I'd just see what all the hype is about. I have a deep love for Anne Rice and the vampires she created. It almost felt like I was cheating a bit as I started reading it.

Once I started though, it was like heroin. I could not put it down. There are 4 books in the series. I tore though all four of them in 6 days. When I was not reading, I was thinking about reading. It had turned into an intense obsession.

I saw the movie last week and then I turned my friend Molly on to the books the other day and she had the same response it it I had. So at least I'm not alone in this weird little world of fantasy. She called me last night and in a spur of the moment thing we decided it was out of our control and we had to go see the movie again. So at 10:30 at night these 2 obsessed thirty somethings sat in a theater with over hormoned teenagers and watched the movie.....again.
I can't even put my finger on what is so darn appealing about these books either. They are meant for teenagers, there is no language or sex. Aside from the obvious vampire stuff, they are completely clean.

It is all very bizarre.
My husband thinks I have lost my mind, but then this is not a new thing for him.

I can't be sure, but I think Molly and I may go see it again tomorrow afternoon.


Help!~ I am in love with teenage vampires! Glittery ones at that! :)
