what have i done?!

additionally:
my vehement dislike of Twilight is not unknown to friends and family. i have preached and complained and objected to the book(s) for two and a half years now, ever since all the (16+ year old) kids on my trip to peru were stuck sitting around reading and obsessing. ever since i hear people comparing the series to Harry Potter (which is, in fact, the greatest YA series ever written, some of the best books ever written, actually). ever since grown people have "appreciated" the story and the bits about love. ever since everyone is obsessed with the books and the movies and the movie stars. ever since i was told about how bella was a silly girl fitting all the stereotypes about needy women and edward was over 100 years old and still loves this silly little girl and everyone thinks they're in a good relationship. ever since they just bug the living hell out of me.
this hatred has driven me to a new low. i will now attempt the incredible: i will read Twilight.
i need more ammunition. i will return with vengeance.

Okay I just found your blog today and I LOVE it. I wish I could write like you... you have such a talent. I also completely agree with your feelings on Twilight. Just imagine how bad it is here in Utah. I miss you.
