Eclipse Viewing #2!

I have a new shirt! Courtesy of Cafe Press and KG at iheartmythicalcreatures, this showed up in my mailbox yesterday afternoon!!
But more on that later.

Yesterday, folks, I met Starlit Violets! We had planned to get together for lunch and a second viewing of our community's current crack flick: Eclipse (of course). I don't know about SV, but I had so much fun!!! I got to the theater a little early (we were meeting at this super nice theater we both love - part of it is 21 & up only and you can order from your seat and drink booze during the movie (without hiding it!), and you know me - I love that. SV and I opted for the all ages section and HD screen, though). So, since I had time to kill, I brought out Edlet and T.Edlet (for anyone I haven't explained this to, his name is just a shortened version of Twilight Edlet).


I got the tickets, so we didn't have to worry about it later, and then SV picked me up for lunch! She is super cute in RL (just as she is online), as well as funny and sweet, and I had a great time getting to know her better over lunch, although it was a little surreal meeting one of you in RL, I have to say! But once I got over the initial shock of that, it was just fun hanging out with a new friend. I'm a little shy at first, so I'm sure I came off as socially retarded, but SV was nice enough to not say anything about that (thanks, bb!)!! ;)

[I have a picture of us, but we didn't discuss whether we would put those online, so I don't want to post it without checking with her first.]

The movie was great, of course. I still laughed out loud at the action figure posing of the Cullen clan in the forest. I still lurve Charlie as played by Billy Burke, and I still wish Victoria was Rachelle LeFevre. But I mostly just love that David Slade was able to get the romance and action both into this movie without sacrificing anything truly important. You know I missed certain things - you can read my original bullet-point-riffic review here if you missed that - but overall I'm happy with this movie. I can't wait to see what was cut on the DVD! I wish Summit would give us an option (as has been done on some DVDs) of reinserting deleted scenes.

We said goodbye, planning on getting together in RL again sometime (maybe with the hubses), and I drove home to find my prize from iheartmythicalcreatures!

The 'lets check out my shirt...

...and fall over, laughing.

Enter Charlie, stage right.

"Get off the shirt, Charlie."
"Here, kitty, kitty..."

"Gotcha!"

"Ooof!" "Ooof!!"

So the new shirt was a big hit. Even TH thinks it's funny (although I think he's probably just glad it doesn't say, "I would leave my husband for Edward" or something).

So, how many times have YOU seen Eclipse now? And do you have any funny Twilight shirts (or accesories)? Spill it in the comments...
