sometimes, i doubt your commitment to sparkle motion

“I have to say, y’all, that what follows is possibly the most awesome crackfic of any of the series so far.”

cleolinda jones, of movies in 15 minutes, put together a wiki of her lj’s twilight related entries. the glossary and book recaps are unmissable and hilarious. “She’s just saying what we’re all thinking”, says the nerd world times blog, and it’s true.

“And they sexed happily ever after in their magic cottage while their half-vampire toddler slept in the next room, and it was the best series starting with a teenage girl in love with a mysterious boy in her class that ended up with a teenage girl defending her growth-accelerated mutant hybrid baby from an ancient clan of evil vampires with her magical psychic shield that I ever read, THE END.”

if you like twilight, or maybe you find the whole thing a little ridiculous, go read, it’s brilliant! :)

boosting family coolness since 1992

i’ve had my name on the newspaper a few times before. usually because of some tech article, postcrossing, or crocs-related interview. none of them had any special impact on my family, in fact, most of them they never knew about any of those.

the one thing that made all my cousins proud was this photo,

splashed on page 55 (i think) of a certain portuguese religion book. that girl there, drowning the plants? that’s me.

every cousin would in turn discover this picture one day and proceed to brag to the whole class they knew this girl, their cousin ana! they felt cool – and i did too :P

ps – that’s my mom on the yellow suit (hi mom!), which is ironic since she never liked having her picture taken :)
