On a lighter note... I just received this invite from

Wow! That is very cool. But it's a bit weird that they are "screening" the movie AFTER it's open to the public. Whatever. I would have loved to come with you, but I think we are going to be out of town that day! Have fun!
I'm guessing you've read the books and like them? I've been avoiding them like the plague :)
You MUST take me with you! Please...
I haven't read the series yet, but have heard from enough people who have loved the Twilight series that I'm planning on reading the books.
How awesome that you get to be there!
They're screening the movie with the DIRECTOR in the house for Q&A after! That's the cool thing. Much of it was filmed in Central Oregon.
Katya is flipping out. We TOTALLY want to go. Can we get two tickets through you or should we get them ourselves. We are so there!!
I just reserved our tickets at the Sisters Movie House. We are so excited! I guess that there is now a waiting list for the talk.
Maybe we could get together for coffee or something beforehand.
