You are NOT Bella and He is NOT Edward!

Geesh...some people drive me insane! Take the Twilight frenzy...for example. Rich and I had not seen any of the Twlight movies until recently. (As a matter of fact we've not seen any Harry Potter or Lord of the Ring flixs either, but that is a completely different blog).

After Christmas we decided to go ahead and watch all of the Twilight movies, to include going to the theatre to catch the latest and greatest film. I will admit that we really did like the movies...very well done and the story line was not too shabby. While the last film held a huge cliffhanger in the air we were not inclined to go out an get the book just to see what will happen in the next movie - we can wait. And..to answer the burning question..we did NOT join either "Team".

So, what's my deal-i-o? Grown ass people who do not separate fact from fiction...a script from real life. In fact, GROWN ADULTS (in their mid-late 30's) who refer to each other as "Bella" and "Edward" in person and on Facebook! First of all...YOU are NOT Bella and He is NOT Edward! Your names are "XXXX' and "XXXX". Grow the hell up and play in the real world! These folks even had their 2011 Christmas ornaments designed with their fictitious names! When I see Him refer to her as Bella I feel the bile rising in my throat. A recent post between them "Bella loves her Edward" and the response "Edward loves his Bella" just about had me one itchy trigger finger away from hitting the 'unfriend' button - or at the very least, losing my lunch! In the end I just 'unsubscribed' to their nonsense so I can't see their ridiculous posts.

Maybe I see the whole fantasy-role-playing all wrong and maybe they use their sudo names as foreplay to some freaky, wicked romp in the hay. If that's the case..then rock on Folks! Whatever works between the sheets for you! Then again, maybe to pretend to live in and get lost in the seduction of vampires and wolves is better than facing a mundane existence (not accusing here..just saying). To each his/her own I guess.

It's just a movie..or series of movies Folks! Just sayin'!

Peace!
