Burning Question

I had another strange dream. I was on some sort of game show where the final question was so tough, I cracked under the pressure. I really wanted the billion dollars (my dream, my jackpot - don't tell me it can't happen). But I just couldn't decide. So here was the question:

Who's hotter: vampires or werewolves?

At first, I thought vampires. I mean, have you seen some of them?

But, then, I thought of the super pale - almost translucent - skin. And the blood.

Also, I remembered the werewolves.

Also, they're really warm - and it's almost winter. So I thought the cold vampires would be the wrong choice. Just as I was about to shout "Werewolves!" I had no voice. Nothing came out. I heard the buzzer. I lost a billion dollars. I thought too long about this silly question. Why couldn't it have been one of these against zombies?

There's nothing hot about zombies.

NOTE: I'm trying to figure out what I did before bed time to have such a strange dream.

OOOH! Can't Wait

Twilight

I've Been Sucked In

To Stephenie Meyer's vampire series, that is.

So imagine my delight when I went to the mailbox and found this waiting for me.
Those two play the leads in the move version of the first book in the series, Twilight.

The magazine includes an article on the making of the movie. It also includes an interview with the author. Some of the tidbits from her:

• She's working on a novel of Twilight as seen from Edward's point of view (it hasn't been sold and Meyer teases that it could be published on her website instead of in book form)
• The alien series The Host already has two books to follow it (they haven't been completed yet)
• She's also planning a time-travel novel

I just pre-ordered my copy of Breaking Dawn this morning (for $14.92!) and decided I could not wait for delivery. I'll be picking it up in the store!

Thanks to Julie for getting me hooked on this! It's fun reading!

Of course, you could see more about what I've just written on EW's website here. And while Julie is the lucky weekly recipient of this magazine after I've absorbed the yummy dose of pop culture, I recommend you take the old school route and pick up the magazine!
