I need that sparkly cockroach in my life!
So, I totally and completely tried to find some more Twilight merchandise to purchase and review for you all from this year's Armageddon (for the disgusting candy from last year still makes me twitch from time to time).
Alas, that the most be-yew-ti-ful product was wanting $59.99 for the privelege of carting it back home to adorn my jewellery-box-of-shame.
I speak of course of THIS:
At which katiefoolery (rather memorably) during the movie gasped and exclaimed "It's like a giant cockroach OMG!" Forever RUINING for me what was supposed to be a beautiful and romantic moment *perfect crystalline tear*
I did however get to try on the "sample" out of the box version (while the emerald85 was rootling for awesome badges) After... yes... queuing for the privelege. Now, I have been unfortunately blessed with the "stubby finger" gene - thus my long lived dream of playing the piano professionally was thwarted age 7 when I failed to span the required number of keys :( So you all have to imagine the effect of this GINORMOUS cluster of diamantes and cheap plated tin encroaching over the first knuckle and headed impressively for the second.
I swayed my hand back and forth (the better to catch the harsh overhead flourescent lighting) and for a few blissful moments imagined myself pledging my troth to ~Edward~ before nearly losing an eye as a giant tentacle marched past. And then the preciousss was cruelly ripped from my hands to adorn some lesser fangirl.
And I shall leave you all with some awesome (somewhat) related linkage:

My inner pedant was sekritly gleeful.
:P
Sigh and that ring would have looked so purdy on me for my Bella costume on Halloween. I have it all picked out! Shapeless baggy knit sweater, ripped jeans, lank unkempt hair, dark shadows and running mascara (to show my ~grief~ at the loss of Edwaaaaaard). I'd spritz on some freesia scented perfume and know that anyone who instantly hated me and was mean was just in luurve!
