So last night, with nothing to do, I decided to see the midnight showing of Snow White & the Huntsman. My review is below.
 

Interactive question: Have you seen this movie yet? What did you think? If you haven't seen it yet, are you planning on going, and what are you looking forward to the most?

Additional question: Have you ever gotten a rude movie patron kicked out of a movie theater before?

p.s. There are no direct spoilers in this review. However, I did make a few things red, just in case. RED = possible spoiler. However, I'm pretty sure you all have pretty much assumed the majority of them. ;)

I remain, Yours: by Momatu. Bella is unexpectedly given an antique desk that once belong to Edward, and in it she finds a letter her wrote to his cousin in 1918. She responds and sets them off on a journey neither could ever have expected. Perhaps there are some things we aren't meant to understand, just accept...Will eventually contain character death. Not Edward or Bella.
 

For those of you that have had the chance to see it…what are your thoughts?

I saw it last night at midnight when it opened.

My thoughts and spoilers (which will be in white) inside!

We're picking up our puppy tomorrow!  And I'm soooooooo excited!  Meet the newest member of our family, Frankie.  He was one of two pups that had blue eyes (both parents had brown) so we named him Frank which evolved into Frankie or Frank the Tank.

And yes, I do think I'm a little insane.  I have three boys, two cats and another dog.  Good thing I like a hectic household, lol.

I've never had a puppy before.  All of the pets that I have adopted have been at least one or two years old.  So this is a whole new ball game.

Do you campers have any suggestions on how to keep my puppy and my home safe?  We already bought a crate.  The crate is in our living room, which has a baby gate.  We also have chew toys (so that he won't eat our furniture), but other then that I don't know what else to do.

Or....share with us pictures of your furry kids :)

I just joined Twitter!

I know, I find it hard to believe as well!

And I have no idea what I'm doing.

So come on in, share your Twitter with the Forest (if you want!), and maybe help me out with what on earth this is all about!!

A song about Twitter fyt:

Hi everyone! How are you doing?

Now I know you're probably gonna think what crazy me wants with Mothersday. Well here's the thing: Mothersday may be over in the US and several other countries but where I am it will only be next weekend. And I am a little curious ;)

The point: I'm doing an internship in a kindergarden and want to play a little game with the children about mothersday and how it is represented internationally. So would you lovely campers be so kind as to help me out a little?

Here are some guidelines for you:

The wishes: Do you just say Happy Mothersday? How is it written in your language?

Any special traditions/ gifts?

When is it celebrated?

And if you want to you can also leave me some pics

Or just come in talk to me ;)

And here's also a rec for you with a kick-ass Bella-mommy, if you haven't read this already, go do it NOW ;)

it is also free for all weekend, so make with the campfires already! anything you want within forest rules.

the rangers will now deliberate on the best "a day in the life" campfire and come to a decision this weekend. in the meantime, keep commenting in everyone's posts! we will allow comments on those puppies to continue through midnight eastern, saturday. 

once the winning "a day in the life" campfire is chosen, we will randomly pick two commenters in the campfire to win a $25USD amazon gift card each!

that means you should comment anywhere and everywhere! i don't care what your comment is (as long as it still follows forest rules, ofc).  click on the "a day in the life" tag down there to get a list of everyone's campfires.

i suppose we can use this post as a small "ask wtvoc anything" campfire to keep things interactive.

and hey, why don't you feed the trees while you're here?

john, paul, george, and ringo fyt:

SPEND A DAY IN THE LIFE OF A MISBEGOTTEN, SUPER POWERED LAWYER!

(because that is exactly how I look going to court)

(actually the second one is a much more accurate picture...)

THERE WILL BE BOYS!  AND BOOZE!  AND...OTHER EXCITING STUFF! 

WELCOME TO (FINALLY)

OF ME!

Sorry for the last minute entry, but seriously, I had NO idea how hard it was to upload videos!

COME ON INSIDE AND CHECK OUT MY DAY, AS I CAN BEST SHOW IT TO YOU, WITH THE VIDEOS AND PICTURES I HAVE TAKEN!

This is a day late. Thanks for all of the amazing support via PM. I really do love this community and all of the campers. I know I need to get the Pimp campfire up as well. I will keep an eye on things and post that sometime this weekend. I apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.

As always, the weekly help desk is your place to ask questions:

Did you forget the name of a fanfic?

Do you have a request for a special kind of fanfic?

Do you want to know what happened to an author or a story?

Do you have a question about ADF's rules and how it works?

This is your campfire. Ask away! Many people like to answer!

Honestly, you can ask about anything here. It is most fun when we can help lots of people!

Does anyone know if this story was once a fanfic? 

Take This Regret  by Amy Lichtenhan

I always wonder about stories published by The Writer's Coffee Shop.  I don't know much about this subject, but do they actually publish works of original fiction or do they simply publish fics with names that have been changed around?  I'm also wondering if there is a list out there naming all of the fics people know of that have subsequently been published as 'original fiction'. 

My Rec:  Sleep Talk - Bella and Edward, a friendly conumdrum... Two weeks to figure it out. Two weeks to talk and kiss and touch. Two weeks to fall in love.

I adored this story when it was posting.

And release....

Tell me fellow campers,

HOW DO YOU RELAX?

I work in non-profit and we're coming up on the end of our fiscal year, so things are stressful around here. We just took a 5 min Yoga stretch/breathing break at work. It was awesome!

Sometimes we all just need those 5 minutes, you know? Release the negative energy. Find some peace and calm. As my Hubs always tells me: Soak in the chi, repulse the monkey

(I hope that made you laugh and that laughter relaxes you, lol. He seriously tells me that all the time.)

So come tell me how YOU relax! Pass on the tried and true techniques. If you do yoga, what's your favorite pose? I love Tree pose and Weeping Buddha :)

This was approved by whichever glorious Ranger is manning Twitter.

(also, I have to get back to said job, but I'll check back in before I leave work and then after my commute. In the mean time, the amazing MegsD2 has agreed to check in on this for me)

I'm a curious and cautious kind of girl, by nature, and I like to have lots of options. I posted my first fic with Twilighted and then started exploring. Now I post on Twilighted, FFn, ADF, and An Archive of Our Own.

Soooo, I've been wondering... where do you post your fics?

Come inside and share with me, if you would! Even if you are strictly a reader -- there are so many resources out there we can all share. Oh, include your pennames/profile names, too. I try to use the same penname everywhere... and I'm not so good with figuring alternate pennames. My brain is small and full of useless information... like the lyrics to the Dukes of Hazzard theme song.

(I know that the ADF logo is old. I will post a new one if I can get a URL. Though I must confess that I am DIGGING the one I dug up on Google.)

This CF was approved by the lovely LJ Summers.

And here's some Eric Packer. Just because I can.

Does anyone know what happened to A Different Kind Of Love by EandB?

Chapter 31 was updated on the 26th and now it's just gone! snif

A day in the life of Karalynn79

A day in the life of a temperamental teenager. 

In this campfire you will find:

-Product placement

-A sibling

-A mother

-Autumn trees

-And a skanky possum

I play the piano to express my feelings... 

The not-so-just-maybe ironic tale of a day in the life of one girl pretending to be two. 

Come have a look. Whether if it's for the drama, lolz, wank, or just plain curiosity, you know you want to find out more. 

A long time ago (in a galaxy far, far away) there was a campfire in which campers could request spoilers for stories they had heard about but were too gun-shy to actually try. And I thought, "Hmmm, I wish I could ask about such and such, but that's not a fanfic."

So, here I am, months later, creating a campfire for that very reason.

• Is there a show, movie, book, etc. that has intrigued you, but for some reason or another, you can't actually bring yourself to get into it?
• Perhaps you're really into a certain smexy doctor, but that one chick in the previews really grates on your nerves. Well, here you can ask how much of the show she's actually in!
• Does the tone of a certain book deter you from reading? Ask if it has an HEA, and then dig in!

ETA: And, please, even if you don't have a request, come on in and lend your knowledge to someone who wants to know. 

My request is inside ;-)

A Day in The Life of a Born and Breed Texan. Yeehaw!

I haven't done this in a while and I need some new stories to read. Could you log into your ffn account and tell me your 5 most recent story alerts that you added? PLEASE LINK :)

This was my Monday;

the end of a three-day weekend fighting an ear infection at my parents' house.

But at least there was this:

to help dull the pain.
