the disappointment called twilight...

i think if you have not read the book, the movie would probably be an okay movie.  but if you have read the book, then i think you are in for a big disappointment.  i know people say the book is always better than the movie, but i had high hopes for this one.  well it didn't happen.  and i should have known.  there is no way to put edward and bella's relationship into a 2 hour movie. this is just my opinion, let me know what you think. 

i still love edward though...  he can sparkle for me anyday!

"be safe"

this is exactly what i thought:

ASSOCIATED PRESS
Verdict: Negative
"But much of what made the relationship between Edward and the smitten Bella Swan work in Meyer's breezy book has been stripped away on screen. The funny, lively banter -- the way in which Edward and Bella teased and toyed with one another about their respective immortality and humanity -- is pretty much completely gone, and all that's left is a slog of adolescent angst." —Christy Lemire

twilight, tonight's the night!!!

 just wanted to share with you all how excited i am about seeing the twilight movie tonight at 12:01 AM. i went to get my ticket today at about 12:30 and there was already one girl waiting in line to be one of the first into the theater. i'm excited, but thats a little silly. so the guy at the theater said i should be there at least an hour ahead of time. YIPPEE!!! i'll be writing a review tomorrow (very tired i'm sure)

slo children's museum

so after a long, long, loooong, wait, the slo children's museum has reopened.  now i had never been to it before they remodeled, so i have nothing to compare it to, but i thought it was boring.  not a whole lot to do there.  miles liked it and i guess that's what's important.  but here's the thing.  i walk in the front door, pay my $16 and get ready to head in. the girl behind the counter tells me that miles will really enjoy the 3rd floor.  we take off to the elevator, and she then informs me stroller parking is around the corner.  i told her, i was going to be taking the stroller because i have maisy.  she then tells me sorry we don't allow strollers in the museum, we have a baby bjourn you can borrow.  i'm like what no strollers... she explains to me there is not enough room on the floors to have strollers.  ok, last i checked it was a CHILDREN'S museum.  but oops, i guess i shouldn't have made any assumptions.  anyway, i'm sure we'll be going back again.  it is a good place to spend gloomy, cold days.
