So I’ve reached the point in my Twilight obsession where I’m trying to convince my sister and brother-in-law they need to see the movie with me–in costume.
The plan: my sister would be Bella, my brother-in-law would be Edward and I WOULD BE THE SPARKLES! But for some reason they’re not really into this? I don’t know why. All they have to do is dress normally. My costume would be the most complex. I’m thinking glittery pink body suit with mini-disco balls stapled all over it and then maybe the words DO I DAZZLE YOU? written on the front. Brilliant, I know.
And don’t you dare steal that idea because if someone else is running around in a glittery pink body suit with mini-disco balls stapled all over it with the words DO I DAZZLE YOU? written on the front, I will hear about it and I swear to you now I WILL STALK YOU WHILE YOU SLEEP.
me: (O_O)
you: (-_-) zzZ
Thank you for weathering this all-consuming Twilight obsession with me, bbs. I know it’s not been easy. I caught the bug–what can I say? I am only human! And I am so stoked for the movie.
Oh, and speaking of stalking, is this not the freakiest cat you have ever seen:
The first time I saw that, I was torn between laughing and being really freaked out so I ended up doing that high-pitched giggle people do when they’re terrified out of their minds. All of my family members think that cat is the cutest and most hilarious cat in the history of catkind, but I’m just like what?! Clearly that cat has a murderous agenda.
In other news, I’ve been getting comments on the LJ feed (thanks, guys!), but the comment settings are restricted and I’m unable to reply. I just wanted you to know I’m reading ‘em and I appreciate you taking the time.
Anyways, I have to go work on my Twilight Movie Costume now. That glittery pink body suit isn’t going to let out itself!
I know!
You thought I was joking about that!
“…glittery pink body suit with mini-disco balls stapled all over it and then maybe the words DO I DAZZLE YOU? written on the front.”
I wish I could take my mental image of this out of my head and frame it.
You’re going to take pictures, right? Right? Pictures or it didn’t happen!!!
TOTALLY. THEY WILL GO ALL OVER MY MYSPACE AND FACEBOOK AND STUFF.
I might even send them out in a mass email.
I know the world wants it, oh yeah.
YOU KNOW THEY WANT IT.
By the way, thanks a lot for getting bootylicious stuck in my head RIGHT as I’m trying to go to sleep. Although I really want you to rewrite and record that song from Edward’s perspective. I DON’T THINK YOU’RE READY FOR THIS…SEXIST ATTITUDE! (Okay, not that catchy. Surely you can do better.)
Oh my God, have you read Edward Cullen’s Wikipedia entry? It’s hilarious. I love the part about his taste in music.
WHY DOES EDWARD HATE COUNTRY?! WHY.
I bet Edward would leave Bella as soon as he saw me in my costume.
At least I hope so.
I admit it, that cat video made me laugh out loud even before I knew what was going on. Just the slow, slow, slowwww walking at the beginning did it for me. How can you tell I’m a cat owner, right?
(Similar to the above, cartoons like this were already funny to me before I adopted her, but since then? Ten times funnier, at least. Every time that stupid “mow!” noise happens I crack up, because it’s actually surprisingly accurate. Hee.)
I was hoping you’d watch the cat video! I totes thought of you before I put it up. The last frame kills me. The eyes!!
Oh my God, that Simon’s Cat cartoon was hilarious!!
That’s not a cat it’s a ninja! (Nearly fell off the couch with laughter)
IT’S A MURDEROUS NINJA!
If I were out, say at the movies, and I saw someone wearing the outfit you described with the words DO I DAZZLE YOU? on the front, I just don’t think I would be able to contain myself. I would be so completely dazzled and I’d never forget it.
So any chance you’ll take a side trip to New York?
MY cat is *so* skilled, he’s actually STALKING ME WHILE HE SLEEPS. I know. Whoa.
Well, I guess I’m going to return my glittery pink disco-ball-bedecked bodysuit to the costume rental and TRY to think of something ELSE. Sheesh……
WAIT, I KNOW!!! *I* will cover my nekkid body in ~*SPARKLY MOUSSE*~ and morph myself into an unnatural and sexy shape…because *I* will attend the movie – AS EDWARD’S HAIR!!!
Oh my holy freak the CAT!!!
That is the perfect scene for a horror movie. Turn away…it’s CLOSER! But pretending it hasn’t moved at all. Did you imagine it? You let your guard down…it’s CLOSER!
But aww, it’s such a cute kitty I’m sure it’s…
AAAAAAAARGLGLRGL!
AHHHHHHHH NINJA CAT!!
Also if I had any plan to watch the Twilight movie YOU KNOW I WOULD STEAL YOUR IDEA. Because what this world needs is an overweight 30-year-old house Frau IN SPARKLES.
In costume? Glittery pink body suit with mini disco balls? Hahahahahahahaha! Twilight can be the new Rocky Horror!!! I get to bring stuff to throw at the screen! OMG, thanks for the laugh!!!
Edward hates country because clearly, with all the fast cars and such, he’s a rock and roll kind of vampire … or actually classical, or something. Crap, now I can’t remember, but I’m not going to go look it up on wikipedia, no I’m not, nope, not going to …
So, you don’t like the stalker kitty? Who do you think is worse, Edward the sleep stalker, or kitty the camera stalker?
OMG OMG OMG!
Okay, I love cats. I have a cat. But THAT cat…
THAT cat is the devil incarnate!
I was totally watching and kinda half-giggling and half not wanting to look because OMG any second that cat was gonna be right there in my face and I JUST DIDN’T KNOW WHAT IT WOULD DO!!!!
Total freak out!
“So I’ve reached the point in my Twilight obsession where I’m trying to convince my sister and brother-in-law they need to see the movie with me–in costume.”
Okay, you made me do a spittake here!
Now is the time to rein yourself back in, just a *little.* Have you read the other books yet, by the way?
My cousin sent me that cat clip last night saying it was like a reenactment of the Blink epsiode of Doctor Who. Very freaky/cute indeed.
The last TPB from season 7 is on tonight. Wah!I really gotta rent the movie…but maybe I should wait…try to wean myself off the show first.
That cat vid was hilarious. The camera had to be on a stick, perhaps adorned with some kind of feathers — no– sparkles! What was I thinking?!
Off to wiki for more twi-crack.
Have you checked out S.M’s site for the leaked sequel? I’m still in the forth book, but think I’ll need to…
I wonder how that cat would react to your costume…
Snarf.
Nova: One day, one day. In my dazzling costume, for sure. Hee. ;)
Emily: I KNEW IT. I HAD A FEELING YOU HAD A BODYSUIT COSTUME and I wrote the whole entry hoping you would out yourself because there can only be one. But… DAMN. EDWARD’S HAIR? Now THAT’S solid. Why did I not think of that? Trade costumes?
Susan: SUSAN? SUSAN ARE YOU OK? SUSAN? *steps into dark hallway*
Annika: I THINK YOU SHOULD MAKE PLANS, WEAR IT AND WE SHOULD GO TOGETHER. WE WOULD BE SO DAZZLELICIOUS.
sruble: *gasp* YES! The New Rocky Horror! Oh my God, that is inspired. People could throw sparkles at the screen and stuff. Edward thought the 80′s were tolerable according to the wiki entry but he hated country. I do not understand this! And Kitty the camera stalker wins by a long shot, I gotta say.
starrynite: SERIOUSLY! It’s evil! That last frame when it’s RIGHT THERE. It freaks me out!
C.K.: I don’t know how to rein myself in! I am all-consumed by Twilight! And I haven’t even read the rest of the books! How sad is, that? I think it’s mostly first book and movie excitement. If I do get to the rest of the book, God help us all. And don’t wait for the movie! Watch it now! Have you seen the Christmas Episode yet? Because you have that to look forward to, too!
pseudosu: I haven’t read the leak of Midnight Sun! It’s incompatible with my adobe–I could always update my adobe, I suppose but I’m trying to hold out. One more book my send me over the edge!
Carrie: Hee–that last frame when it ran away? That’s probably exactly how it would react. ;)
Woo, that cat is totally like that spoof car commercial where the nice sedan is out on the open road, do-do-do, just a little family drive in the country and then BAM! A freaky-melty face of the undead jumping right out at you!
*runs to watch it again*
I SAW THAT VIDEO! It freaked me out so hardcore the first time!!!
Courtney, if you want to be properly obsessed you really gotta read the other books. C’mon now!
You know, the Christmas episode of TPB was actually the first one I ever saw. It was on Christmas day a few years ago and I think my dad was like whaaaa? but my husband and I were breaking up. I’m really scared to see what Conky’s going to do tonight. I think somebody needs to put him in a strait-jacket.
You are so right, C.K.
It’s just… can I afford to BE properly obsessed?!
Hah! I love that you were introduced to TPB via the Xmas episode which is truly great (esp. when Ricky confuses Santa with God).
Conky gets SUPER SCARY in season 7! Man, I would not want to mess with him.
they’re right, you’re wrong, that cat is the funniest thing i’ve ever seen.. today.
I’M RIGHT THEY’RE WRONG SO THERE.
um, I have also been thinking about going in costume. and trying to convince my friend micaela to go with me.
eeeeeeekkk
IF WE LIVED CLOSER WE COULD TOTALLY GO TOGETHER!
