I recently started watching the TV show Roswell.  Each episode is 44 minutes long, so I watch them while I am on the elipitical at the gym.

Thanks to Emiliano, I have been to Roswell, NM, and I have even been to the International UFO Museum and Research Center.  Unfortunately, in the show, they do not use the real museum in the TV show.  It is quite similar, and I was fooled until I looked at my pictures from this past summer. (The one with the green is the fake TV show one.)

So while I’ve been watching Roswell (which isn’t that great of a show, but it’s not terrible), I’ve noticed that it is a LOT like the movie Twilight.  I had noticed some similarities after the first episode, and the more I watch, the more I see.  Anywho, so here’s the comparison:

• Alien vs. Vampire

• Non-human finds plain Jane human to be incredibly attractive

• Non-human saves the girls’ life

• Non-human says “Oh, we shouldn’t be friends”

• Human girls finds out about the truth about the guy - he’s a non human!

• The non-human’s family gets pissed at the guy.  He’s putting their lives in danger by allowing this human to know about them

• The guy and girl decide they can’t not be friends

So far, those are the only similarities.  But I’m only on episode 5 of Roswell, and there are many more to come.

As my mom said “There are only so many themes that these people can write about, and the Roswell and Twilight people just happened to pick the same theme!”

And there are a lot of people out there who really don’t like the Snuggie!  Well, I’m sure that NIles will think of you all as he’s comfortably reading his book with his arms warmly in the sleeves of his blanket.

Last night, my dad had their office Christmas party at Larry’s house.  It was planned for December 12th, but it was postponed, because no one had power!  Tonight we were invited over to friends for dinner.   I can do both of these things because I quit Destare.  Otherwise, I’d miss out on all the fun, and be at work.  I’m glad I get to experience things again.
