The Chemistry Is Still So Palpable! #SDCC #ROBSTEN


My search for Robsten failed (as did my quest to see ASkars again, but that's a different blog), though admittedly I can't say I tried all that hard. Being 7 mos preggo kinda put a damper on my energy.

Anyhoo, here are some fabulous Robsten SDCC vids.

LOVE THEM.

The first minute or so of music is kinda annoying, but it gets much better.

Love the look they give each other right after 2.04....it screams "we're doin' IT" 
;)


And this next one is full of sneaky lil' "I wanna fuck you" glances. Gah! I have never seen two people look at each other the way they do. The chemistry is still so palpable after all this time...and that says a lot for a young couple.


Hope you enjoyed these as much as I did.

I Managed To Meet Stephenie Meyer & Lose My Vagina, All Within 24 Hours!

I was in the shower this evening, thinking about the fact that close to this time last night I was about to meet Stephenie Meyer & most of the Twilight cast when I realized, SHIT, where's my vagina?!?  Oh, it's there alright, but how the hell am I supposed to keep it 'under control' when I can't even see it?! Gah! ES says I need to relinquish my fears and go get a wax, but I'm terrified. Though I do not, and I repeat do not, want to have one of those freaky ass hairy vag's while giving birth. I know, I know, Dr.s see all kinds.....but I'd like some neatness down there if you get my drift.

Moving on.....& back to the topic we all really want to talk about, Twilight at #SDCC2012! Again this year, I am badgeless, but that hasn't stopped my excitement. Working a few blocks from the convention center is really super convenient. I was able to take a walk down to the BD2 panel line outside of Hall H on Tuesday & visit long lost friends.



Reunited again! With @17foreverlisa
Who knew 3 years ago that I'd get to hang with her at least 4 or 5 times?!
And yes, I realize my shirt is see-through. Oops.


With @ZAnyMouse, @misstejota & @FunmbiE


It was so great to see these girls (and more) again. Feels like it was just yesterday. Anyhoo, it was pretty common knowledge that the Twilight cast would probably be visiting the line sometime around 9pm on Wednesday evening. I asked around to see if anyone would mind if I "hung out"...even though I'm not camping & don't have badges. Everyone encouraged me too, but I had my doubts. I was worried I'd be too tired after work and not make it until 9pm. Well I was feeling pretty good yesterday & planned to play it by ear. Once my event was over, I still felt pretty good and said what the hell.  To kill time, I hung out in the HR lobby for about 35 minutes. At one point I noticed this guy walk by and look back at my shirt and smile..it took a second, but I realized it was Paul Mc Donald. then he leaned in to tell Nikki about it. I could clearly see him mouth the details, but they were starting to walk away and I was too nervous to run after them. Plus I would have looked like a freak. For the record, I made a shirt that said "Lil' Nudger." I *think* that's how Bella referred to Renesmee when she was in her belly at some point in the BD book.

As I was getting up to head over across the street to the convention center, I get a tweet from @mandysmind to get over to the line NOW. So I rushed & got there just in time. Sure enough about 10 minutes later the cast showed up. I was torn as to if I should have them sign my shirt, or the poster they gave out, I decided the shirt & my belly might get more reaction. And it did!


On to the pics!

Warning they were taken mostly by me, with my iPhone. The flash gets a little intense at times...so not the best quality.


Kellan Lutz.
I have seen him at Nordstroms for an event, but never talked to him or taken a pic with him.
He is soooo friendly & very warm! He wrote "I love you" on my belly.


Maggie Grace aka Irina.
Super friendly, super talkative, super appreciative.


Casey LaBow aka Kate.


Elizabeth Reaser, aka Mama Cullen. 
And she rubbed my belly :) Very sweet & appreciative.



Mia Maestro, also very sweet.


Mr. Rathbone lookin' smokin' hot!
He seemed "happier" & more talkative than the last few times
I saw him at 100 Monkeys shows. I congratulated 
him & he happily signed the belly & wrote congratulations.
Did I mention he looked hot? Yah, sorry folks, I love the clean shaven look.


Nikki Reed. Very sweet. GORGEOUS up close & in person.
Thinner than I thought she'd be. After I asked if she would sign, she immediately 
mentioned that Paul had seen my shirt in the lobby of the Hard Rock :)


AND look who also showed up about 20 minutes after the other cast members....

Mrs. Stephenie Meyer!


Gah!

Very talkative & personable. Took her time with each person.
Happy to sign and take pics. She thought I was crazy for not
finding out Baby G's sex. Wow. Just wow. I almost felt like 
I could cry. If it wasn't for this woman, I would have never had ES 
shove the books at me, there would have never been the Twlight Saga movies, 
I would have never started reading blogs, started a blog, found Twitarded, gone to Forks, or met all of you. It's been life changing & I have her to thank for an amazing 3 years.

Enough mush before I cry....

Here's my shirt, which I will frame probably.

SM right in the middle.



I'm sure @Twilovesue & others will have MUCH MORE detailed posts, but I'm pooped.  Some things to note...PFach was there, but seemed not as into it as everyone else. I got him to sign my belly really quick, which he thought was funny, even asked if it was movie prop. Think he was trying to joke. I didn't bother to ask for a picture. Angela Sarafyan, aka Tia, was probably the most talkative and sweetest out of everyone. I can't say enough about her. Just a doll. She wrote "to baby with love" and drew little hearts. Forgot to ask her for a pic. There were other Amazon & Denali Coven peeps there too, but if I couldn't remember who they were I didn't ask for a pic. Was afraid I'd call them by the wrong name or something LOL. Oh and Ashley Greene was there of course. Her 'handlers' said no pictures (the only ones that said no.) I asked if she could sign my belly and the girl almost rolled her eyes and said no. So when Ashley got closer I said hello & thank you for coming, then mentioned that I didn't have anything for her to sign and knew she could sign my stomach. She said of course she could & so she did. Odd thing is, I can't find her autograph ANYWHERE. I think she signed in silver ink against my grey shirt vs grabbing the black sharpie I'd borrowed from @misstejota. Ohwell. I already have an awesome pic with her from a 100 Monkeys concert. She is a doll. Last but not least, Mackenzie Foy was so cute, very quiet, took a good 30 second to write out her long signature at the bottom my shirt. Felt odd asking her for a pic lol.

I think that's it. Sorry if I was kind of all over the place. Preggo brain is no joke folks!

Can't wait to catch up on the BD2 cast panel videos, as well as see what the rest of the weekend has in store. Hopefully work isn't too busy tomorrow!

Solo-Session-Inducing

So who said you couldn't have Bloody Mary Sunday on a Saturday morning in Palm Springs? No one? Oh....ok.  Thought it was a genius intro.

Maybe not.

Anyhoo, I'm back from Palm Springs!



No...that sparkly thing isn't Edward...


Side note: You'd never believe how much $$$ we saved by making our drinks in the room and sneaking them into the pool.  My Mom's hip water bottle was a godsend. We had Bloody Mary's mid-morning & vodka + O-Organics Tropical Soda in the afternoon.


I got home Sunday afternoon, but was a bit sunburned and just felt like chilling out sans blogging. However, it's not like I didn't go looking for new Rob pics the shortly after I got home.  That's just a given. And speaking of, look what surfaced.....




Rob on the set of Cosmopolis lookin' mighty Fifty.





Seriously people. Do you think he's f*cking with us? Toying with us for better choice of words? He must have ready MOTU. That's definitely why he took the roll. The sweet boy that he is, thought he'd give us all a thrill by playing someone that closely resembles Mr. Fifty Shades. 

Really Rob?! Did you think it would be a thrill? Um....it's more like a panty ripping, solo-session-inducing lust fest. Thanks Rob. Thanks ALOT!

Psssst...if you think I'm really complaining, please go jump off a cliff. K. Thanks. Bye.

Let's see, what else happened recently.....oh yes, I remember!

Wait for it..............................................










There's gonna be a Breaking Dawn panel at Comic Con! Gah!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Nope, I don't have tix YET. AND dagnabit, I can't take anymore time off of work.  I really hope someone comes through. As @TwiloveSue pointed out, they'll probably do the panel on Thursday. Booooo.  To think, the entire cast will be 4 blocks from my office. I hope to gawd they do something at the historic Gaslamp Theatre like they did 3 years ago. I work 1 block from it. So technically I could run out on my lunch and scream like a rabid fan girl. I kid.........about the screaming.
Ok, worst case scenario I don't get hooked up with CC tix, I definitely plan to attend a Breaking Dawn Convention in LA, should they have one. Insiders say they will, I'll believe it when I see the link go up :)

Alrighty folks, that's it for now.

Good Karma?

Karma: action, seen as bringing upon oneself inevitable results, good or bad, either in this life or in a reincarnation.


Whether or not you believe in Karma, I feel that there's some truth to that what you put out there, be it good or bad, comes back to you in some form or another. A constant circle so to speak...




Good OR Bad


Why all this talk of Karma you ask? Well, lots of great things are happening in our Twi-community lately & it got me thinking.. ...For example, my dear bloggy bestie Lisa has never had the opportunity to breath the air of the precious (aka Mr. Pattinson) OR, even see Jackson perform with 100 Monkeys. She's always so ridiculously supportive when us West Coasters are given the chance & she's often stuck living vicariously through us. But no matter what, she's always excited for us and uber supportive....much like a lot of you!  FINALLY, luck is on her side and this weekend she is on her way with Mama Cougar to NYC to catch a glimpse of RPattz for the WFE red carpet premiere!  I'm so ridiculously excited for her, I can't explain it.  She also found out she might be scoring a FREE flight to San Diego for Comic Con, and to visit @TwiloveSue & me ....of course!  To top it off, she's also going to get her chance to dry hump Jackson's leg at a 100 Monkeys Concert this Summer in Chicago!!  Is this all Karma for her patience & kindness?


Some of us have been so fortunate in this fandom.  How many people who absolutely obsesss over someone or something, actuallly get to experience them or it up close? ES & I have had some phenomenal experiences since becoming obsessed with Twilight...such as lining up for the New Moon Premiere in LA and getting to see all of the stars arrive, seeing the Twifecta at the Eclipse Convention, numerous Jackson encounters at 100 Monkeys Concerts, seeing PFach up close & very personal ;) and meeting several of the other actors...I'm not the only one here in San Diego that's gotten lucky,  @TwiloveSue has also been very fortunate. You can read about many of her experiences HERE. 

Do good things happen to us because we're all so kind & accepting of each other?

Is it because we love & support each other?


I like to think those are the reasons we have been so blessed.  What you put out there comes back to you....somehow...

Preferrably in the form of this:



:)


Lisa isn't the only one making the pilgramige to Southern California, Dangrdafne is too! She & her husband are coming out for Comic Con in July.  She's another lady that is probably one of the kindest people I know!  AND, Twikiwi is coming too! She's doing the whole shebang & taking a West Coast tour...AND, was give a present from the Jackson Gawds...a chance to see 100 Monkeys in Seattle! The timing was really perfect on that one. Karma must be on her side, considering she's traveling all the way from the land of sheep.....New Zealand!

Rumor also has it that those filthy h00rs from Twitarded will be venturing out to San Diego for the Blogher conference in August.  Now if I could just arrange for RPattz to drop by...hmmm.

Good things are happening to me too! ES & I are going to see 100 Monkeys in LA in May, then again in August. I scored us FREE tix and a "skip the line" pass for that one! Guess it pays to be in the events industry. And as most of you already know, the RPattz Kimmel show is on Wedesnday up in LA. I have priority tickets, but it's still not a guarantee. Cross your fingers & toes for me :)  I also found out that my boss & I are going to be doing some restaurant events for Comic Con. Holy SHIT! If we get asked to do anything Twilight or True Blood related , I pray to gawd I can keep myself somewhat respectfully calm! So far we are doing the lounge for Stargate.... My boss was asked to be on the Comic Con Advisory Board again, but she has too much on her plate right now. Apparentlly she did it a couple years ago. Gah!

I apologize if this post was a bit all over the place. It's Friday and my mind is mush...yet spinning at the same time. Dangerous combo.

*I know A LOT of you are getting some kick ass Twi-opportunities in the future. I didn't mean to leave anyone out, I just know this post would have been way too long. Have something fun coming up? Share in the comments!
