OK! So I've read enough fanfiction to know that Edward ALWAYS has the right things to say when it's time to get down to 'business'.

I want to know what REAL LIFE sweet nothings you've been told or wish someone would tell you.

And I want to know the WORST things you've been told or even read in FF!

For instance, today my sweet and romantic husband said, and I quote, "Hurry up, I just want to fuck."

Real charmer, aint he?

SO PLEASE, INDULGE ME WITH YOUR STORIES OF BOTH GOOD AND BAD.

And for my charmer of a husband- here's to you baby:

ok, I guess I have to give my husband some credit- he's also the guy who once told me that the word wife is actually two words combined - 'whole- life' -  it's corny and he may have heard it somewhere that I don't know of, but for him, it was sweet.

EMBARRASSING CRUSHES

All right, ladies (and gentlemen?).  Embarrassing crushes - we've all had them.  Well, everyone but wolvesnvamps apparently, who told me to make this post because she couldn't think of anyone.  WTF?

Anyway.  We all have that one person (or ten) who is ugly, idiotic, or just plain embarrassing to love.  So embarrassing, in fact, that you'd only admit to said crush when you're off your ass drunk, or if you've lost some kind of a bet.  Well, I've got absolutely no shame, so I'm airing my embarrassing crush on the internets so that we can bond.  Or you can make fun of me, whichever.

So, I'll start the festivities.  

I love Uncle Joey, AKA Dave Coulier of Full House fame.  That show was stupid, and he was ridiculous on it.  Still, I'd let him nail me to a wall.  Come, let us gaze upon this fine specimen of man:

EXHIBIT A:  HE'S GOOD WITH CHILDREN

EXHIBIT B:  HE MAKES ENDEARING GESTURES WITH HIS HAND AND ROCKS A MIGHTY FINE MULLET

EXHIBIT C:  HE IS A STONE FOX

EXHIBIT D:  HE'S GAINFULLY EMPLOYED AND AN EXCELLENT LIST MAKER

DOWNSIDE:  ACCORDING TO ALANIS MORISSETTE, HE'S A BIT OF AN A-HOLE.

Now, it's your turn.  Go!

Hmm... its a S L O W day in the Forest.

I guess everyone is doing their Eddies and Bellies Nominations. Have you done yours????

p.s. What's your favorite Twilight Saga Quote??

"I coveted you." His smile darkened. "I had no right to want you- but I reached out and took you anyway. And now look what's become of you! Trying to seduce a vampire." He shook his head in mock horror." - Edward Cullen - Eclipse

"I may not be human. But I am a man." - Edward Cullen - Twilight

This Cullenary Coupling story?  It's 48 chapters currently and sitting at a word count of: 651762.  (I was looking at Twilighted Top Tens lists.)  

I mean. Hot Damn. That's a lot of words.  From the summary it's an AU of all 4 books.  I have to admire an author that is in it for the long haul like that.   

Linky: http://www.twilighted.net/viewstory.php?sid=1237

What's the longest story you've read? 

Me: In the Blink of an Eye, which I dearly love.  I think it's 52 chapters?  Somewhere around 280k words.  I remember I wanted to nom it for an Eddie but it was too long.

**Big thanks To My Friend James The Beard For the Picture!

Self-Insertion?  I always hear read about people who assume that writers insert themselves into their stories.  

I don't.

But that being said...

I thought it would be fun today, to consider which of our favorite fanfic stories we WISH we could insert ourselves in to?

Now... I don't mean  "I want to be Bella in (insert any story here) so Edward can pound me hard."   I'm more interested in which "side characters" we could become, in order to witness a certain event first-hand... or maybe even gain some insight about a certain POV that we weren't given in the original story.  Maybe our new presence in the story would even change an event that took place?  idk  idk.  

For instance,

I would love to be a side character in Mutually Assured Destruction.  I would be Kat (keeping my own name.)  But Edward would probably call me "Becky" or some crap... just cuz he wants to.  And maybe I'd often hang out down at the park on a bench near the pond, where i eat lunch and write little pieces of stories in my notebook.  Edward would stop by once every two weeks or so, and we would pinch the crust off my sandwich to throw to little duckies.  And Edward would often take my pen and scribble his own little notes along the margins of my paper.  We'd be pals... Edward and I.

Okay.  So maybe I wouldn't change the story all that much.  But it would be fun to be a part of it, and get a glimpse into the wonderful and magical mind of that character.

Now you try.     (Or take the time to stop in and tell me I'm on crack.  Whatev.)  :D

How did you discover Twilight?

Did someone come to you and say "Read this now!"

Did you stumble upon it in a bookstore?

Did you see a poster of Robert Pattinson and think

'What is this and where do I get more?'

Come on Campers, take me down memory lane.

so i'm tired of waiting for SM to get her act together & finish Midnight Sun,
does anyone know of any good fic that picks up where she left off and/or is similar to it?
(or is anyone planning on writing about this so i can author alert you)

did you even like/enjoy M.S??
tell me your thoughts!

please and thanks.

I'm looking for recs of fics that are really sad (I'm talking tissue-box-needed status), BUT have HEAs. Because as much as I love me some good 'ole angst, I do love a happy ending.

(Think: We Were Nomads, Bathed in Concrete)

 One shots or just short-lengths are preferable, as I have to go to sleep soon. :P

Do you remember THIS POST?

If you do, then you know what my thoughts are.

Watch that video.

THE IRONY DOES NOT ESCAPE ME.

THEY WANT TO PAPZ TO STOP HOUNDING HIM, BUT YET I CAN BET THAT THE CREATOR OF THIS VIDEO HAS EVERY SINGLE PHOTO OF HIM BEING STALKED SAVED, AS WELL AS EVERY PAP VIDEO THERE IS OF HIM.

AS JANDCO SAID:

Jandco:  seriously.  SERIOUSLY.

THE IRONY IS SO THICK, I CAN'T EVEN BREATHE.

Well, hello my lovelies!  Oh, how I have missed my ADF time in the evening!  I have been drowning in finals for the past week and I finally resurfaced yesterday (and now I am getting sick!)  I celebrated last night by getting a little toasted with my little sister and a friend and we watched New Moon, again.  

I know that many of you guys are in school as well and can sympathize with me.

So, late night wolvesnvamps declared her post a RAGE POST!  Well, I think we need a

Hello? *tap-tap-tap* anyone out there?

I have brewskies, eh.  C'mon over and share muh log by the fire...

First campfire and glad to *finally* be here.  Thanks for the add.

Used to be DDofEve, for those who care.

More fics?  YAY!  TYVM. 

*runs off to read "Sanctuary" FINALLY OMG.

I know many people read fic as a way to escape and relax.  In searching for stories they often read summaries and check to see if there will be a Happily Ever After (HEA) ending.  

However, I'm morbid and I am in search of Unhappily Ever Afters. :P

I was reading an Un-HEA ending story the other day, and I really enjoyed it. . . .

This got me thinking about all the fics that I've read--most of which have HEAs.  Now, the ending of the story can make or break the story for me.  I've read some really good fics that were solid (well, for the most part) and then the ending came and BAM, disappointment.

 My reasoning for being disappointed is because the endings are unrealistic.  Whether it be due to the story pace (No way that could happen so quickly, they've only dated for 3 minutes. WTF!), or when the ending just doesn't make sense (Events 1, 2, 3, and 4 should lead to event 5, but instead they lead to event NOT POSSIBLE), or I'm gonna end the story this way so all the characters get their own personal HEA (Breaking Dawn), or a no-way-in-hell would that happen (Edward was a man-whore and had 14,000 STDs, and, even though during the whole story he was an asshole who hated Bella, he is now MADLY in love with her, magically cured of any and all diseases, and they wanna have a million little jerk babies together*)  this -- the characters acting completely contrary to how they've been previously written -- really bothers me.  My list could go on and on, but I digress.  

In most of these scenarios, an Un-HEA would've been more realistic, but, for one reason or another, the author decided against it.  I feel like sometimes an Un-HEA would make more sense.

So, here are my questions for you:

What are your feelings on Un-HEA stories?

Do you know any good ones?

Please let me know! 

*Okay, so this is a slight exaggeration. Kill me.

I love looking at people's username/penname/screen names and trying to figure out why they chose them. Some are dedicated to Rob, or twilight, or something like that. But than there's others...

What's the reasoning behind your username/penname/screen name? 

I wanna know 'cause I'm bored and procrastinating, and I'm just weird like that. Robporn would also help ;)
