Share our love of handbags, books, and all things gossip...okay, and Twilight too.

We're two delightfully crass gals who spend an inordinate amount of time texting and e-mailing one another throughout the day. We've decided to expound on some of our best work. Please to enjoy.

BlogoWriMo Day 27 - Black Friday Twilight Style

After getting over the shock of my 89 year-old grandmother starting out our Thanksgiving feast talking about how she suffered from her first bout with diarrhea this past week (this only strengthened my theory that every dinner-table conversation we have in our family devolves into shit, even the classy ones), we ate, drank, conversed, and then went home to plan our Black Friday shopping strategy. (*Note: I forgot the pocket army and have no pics, but Mommy FC is doing another Thanksgiving tomorrow, so not to worry.) Oh, and back to the diarrhea thing...seriously, she never had it before? In 89 years? Crazy! Yeah, and Aunt FC totally started singing the diarrhea song.


The shopping strategy went out the door because we were all too tired to remember the plan at 3 AM. We ended up zig-zagging back and forth across town with a baby and a car filled with Christmas presents no less than 5 times. And thank you nice lady who told me that the Giant on Cowpath Road had the Keurig coffee maker for only $59.99! Eat it Bed, Bath and Beyond - 50% off (clearly the best buy of the day)!

I did manage to acquire a bit of twi-merch. First stop: Toys R Us. Mommy FC and SIL FC skipped the toys and went to Old Navy where we had to wait in the longest line known to man. When I joined them in the line at Old Navy and started showing off the merch, obviously the people behind me were just jealous...on the inside. Then we went to more places I can't really remember, and coming upon one of the weakest Salvation Army bell ringers in history...he didn't even have a bell. I remember going to Target where SIL FC ran over at shouted at some women in the Barbie aisle. The coveted Bella Barbie and the Twilight Scene It game are now mine. A few hours later I acquired a new tree for the Twi-Christmas tree (don't forget to send pics of your ornaments!).

This chick has some really awesome stuff! Check her out here!

Nine hours and hundreds of dollars later we rolled up to the FC estate to unload our spoils of war. But really the most important purchase was 2 New Moon fleece blankets I pried from the cold dead hands of little tweens at 4 AM this morning. Why would I need two? It's for a Snuggie bitch! Born out of a New Moon viewing,
Meg and I came up with the fabulous-o idea of making a Twilight Snuggie. After minutes hours of searching the interwebs for Twilight Snuggies and finding nothing, I vowed that I would make one. Thank goodness Mommy and SIL FC are handy with a sewing machine. Stay tuned for the unveiling of the Twilight Snuggie. You will be blown away. For those of you wondering what the eff a Snuggie is, please to enjoy:

OMG I can not wait to see the Twilight Snuggie! I have to apologize I have not been keeping up on my daily comments for your cause. RL has chewed me up and spit me out!

Bwuaaahhaa! I can not wait for the Twilight snuggie. YOU ARE Brilliant and I wish I could buy one to torture my husband with. He always threatens me that he’s going to buy a snuggie (um, we live in fucking Hawaii) and he’s going to wear it to the beach (and look like a fucking monk at the beach). I would love to surprise him with a comprise. He can wear the snuggie at the beach, if it’s a twilight snuggie. Hehehe.

This snuggie is going to be awesome! I'm glad you all got what you wanted shopping on Black Friday. We went to one place at 6:30 am and it was Sears. We bought a new washer and dryer, work boots for the hubs, and a code scanner for the hubs as well. We bought zero gifts for anyone else.

Ok, I have to put my foot down somewhere. And the Snuggie is where I make my stand. Snuggies are the devil, and not the good kind. I'm considering purchasing a pink one for Fuckface. *evil grin*

Bwuahahaha! Love the Snuggie idea.

Hooray for the Snuggie! I wanna model it for blog pictures when it's done. Best idea ever, if you ask me.

I saw a doggie Snuggie in Petsmart yesterday. Turtle wants one with Bella all over it. Next project.

As RSM to share her KSlutz Snuggie picture with you...I can't remember where I ganked it and I didn't save it to my computer, but it is epic. ;-)

You know, I love how all your family and friends are becoming complicit in your Twiaddiction. However, I am worried about what you will do with all this Twiparaphenalia in, like, 10 years. Will you bequeath it? Pack it away to pull out in your old age and fondle lovingly? I recycled all the Harry Potter magazines I had collected this year. I still felt a pang, like a traitor, even though I checked out of the fandom back in 2005 or 06...

True story. The other night, while shivering with a fever for the first time ever in my life I thought: Gosh a Snuggie would be nice...

Yeah... I know... *walks away with head hanging low*
