Just not a TWI~FAN

I'm sorry, I just didn't enjoy the movie...I went with some friends...I'm all for having a girls night, and at midnight, HOW FUN!

But as far as the movie goes, I thought it was just for those who read the books, it left out anyone that didn't. There were way too many "inside jokes" or what ever you want to call them.

A guy would look at someone, the audience would burst into screams,
a guy bumps into someone else...screams,
a girl bumps into an object.... screams
a guy catches an apple...SCREAMS,
a guy raises his eyebrow...yes, screams.
It went on throughout the whole movie.

I DON'T GET IT! Every two or three minutes, SCREAMS....and it seemed like the relationship between them went way too fast....they went from eye contact to "I love you so much I want to kill you" (apparently I had to read the books)

When I would ask my friends to explain...they're reply was..."you had to read the book" so...I think that was a mistake on the director's part. This movie just wasn't enjoyable without reading...and it seemed to have a VERY LOW BUDGET as well. Such poor quality...
But, I got a free movie ticket out of it all...so I guess you could say that was the
HIGHLIGHT of TWILIGHT for me.....

Lawyer maybe?

............................

So, we have a very special birthday coming up....hello birthday boy.

He is so excited....we all are, we love birthday bashes around here

....so you can imagine my surprise when I found out that, someone...

who shall remain nameless

...somehow, got the birthday boy to sign a CONTRACT....yes I did say contract...it was even titled..."contract."

Got him to sign a contract stating that on HIS birthday, he will give her a gift....and that she will get to go with him to his special "birthday slumber party with the Grandparents."

OK, first....when did my sweet baby girl get all manipulative...and second, why the contract?
Why also, did he go along with it.

...GEORGE WAS CURIOUS

It got me thinking...how did she talk him into that one, did she do something so nice for him that he would just want to do this for her, and so she was just taking legal precautions to ensure it happened, or was there blackmail involved...yes, I was going to get to the bottom of this.

First I talked to Supa Spaz... "Why," I asked,

"Why, would you give someone a gift on YOUR birthday?".....

to which he replied.. "cuz I want to."

"Why not, Harry Perry, or Queen B...or even the baby...why her?"

"Because, I don't know" he said.

"Did you do something to get in trouble and she said that if you give her a gift she wouldn't tell on you?"

"No"

"Did she do something nice for you and you just wanted to do something nice back?"

"No"

"Was the contract your idea?"

"No"

"Do you have anything else to say besides 'no'?"

"Yes"

"Ok, what then?"

"I don't know"

Getting nowhere at this point....I decided to go and talk to the con man herself!

I sat her down and started my interrogation....

"Why did you write a contract?"

"What contract?"

"This one" as I held up the paper in question which was written and signed in brown crayon

"This one, which states that he must give you a gift on his birthday, AND take you with him on HIS special birthday overnighter with Grandpa and Grandma"

"OH"

"WELL?" I asked..

"Why did you create a contract, and make him sign it?"

"So if he tried to break his promise, then I could show him that by law he couldn't break his promise."

"WHAT?"

"Why would you do that?"

"Because you and dad said we should obey the law and I'm just trying to teach him."

"By making him give YOU presents on HIS birthday?"

"YA"

"Did he do something to get in trouble and you are promising not to tell if he gives you something?"

"No"

"Did you do something nice for him and he is doing something nice back?"

"No"

" I GIVE UP"

"I GIVE UP"

I set the contract aside so I could scan it and post it with this blog entry...but it has mysteriously disappeared...HMM?

So... have I been manipulated all these years into thinking I have the sweetest girl on the planet Earth...con obviously...I mean who takes advantage of an AUTISTIC?

WHO?
