Twilight Does Not Have Vampires

What is it that you like about sparkling supermen. No, they aren’t vampires, vampires have drawbacks. For example, eternal life at the cost of not being able to go into the sunlight. These stupid twilight guys do not have a single weakness. The only thing that can even moderately hurt them are other vampires and werewolves. I mean they don’t even NEED to feed on human flesh. They can just live off of animals. Just like humans!

So if literally there is no drawback to being a vampire why the hell doesn’t the guy just turn that chick into a vampire at the end of the first book? Obviously she wants to be one, and there are no drawbacks so why not? It would save me a ton of pain because there wouldn’t be 2 more stupid movies coming out.

November

This has seemed like a long year. Although I have been getting very slow to getting these up, and most are short and pointless, I shall not give up on my resolution. The year is almost done I can do this.

Samhain

And so a new year begins. I wrote a somewhat related piece a year or so ago. Perhaps it was longer, hard to remember at this point. In fact, I think it may have been 2 years ago now.

Here is an excerpt from it:

One dark evening I finally noticed the rain. I heard it dancing across the roof of my room, and chiming against the windows. I had a strange and strong desire to go outside and dance with it, like I did when I was young. I went to the threshold of the moist rhythms and removed my tethers to the indoors--my shirt, socks, pants, glasses, even my hair tie--stepping exposed into the storm. The drops were cold and hit my skin with surprising force. I walked out farther, to where I would have room to move my body, and let the music pound into my flesh. I closed my eyes and began to dance. I danced to the south, to the fire, and felt warm. I danced to the east, to the air, and felt lighter. I danced to the north, to the earth, and felt rooted. I danced to the west, to the water, and felt quenched.

I cooked a pretty awesome Samhain dinner for the family this year. It was quite simple too. I cut up a bunch of chicken apple sausages into relatively small pieces and started cooking them up. In a separate small pan I cooked up some red onions and garlic with thyme and basil in olive oil with just a little bit of vinegar. I boiled a pound of Rotini pasta (the twisty kind) and chopped up 2 fresh tomatoes.

When the pasta was done cooking I put it into the bowl with the fresh tomatoes, put the sausages on those, and then poured the onions and garlic olive oil and vinegar sauce over it all and mixed it up good. It came out wonderful.

Halloween

Well happy Halloween everyone. I’m going to be spending tonight at work! Its not so bad though, I kind of got over Halloween when I was 16 or so.

I remember when I used to get real excited about it, getting the costumes and all that. I wasn’t one of those slow candy eaters when I was young though and the stomach ache all night was never to great. At some point I just stopped thinking about it till the day of. Used the same bad costume like 3 years in a row. Soon I just stopped bothering to go out trick or treating.

I’m also not much of a party goer. That and my friends never seem to have parties on Halloween. Last year I went to a Halloween party with my sister. Although I don’t remember what my costume was. I might have just had a Santa Hat on. Anyway I didn’t really know anyone at that party and I’m not really a drinker though so it wasn’t a great time. Though, I think I had more fun than I expected, once I started pretending to be drunk.

Working tonight won’t be bad though. In fact it should be a real easy night, what with all the kids being busy.
