Ssssssshhhhhhh!!

I had a tip off that Bliss magazine (for girls lol) has Team Edward or Team Jacob tote bags in the current issue.  Now conveniently I had to go to the shop for a birthday card and it was fate!  They had two left, one of each WOOOOHOOOO!

I knew Mr Stan wouldn't approve, especially after this morning's little outburst, so I left them in the car.  When he was asleep on the sofa (because obviously, when you've made a point that morning about wanting to spend time with your wife, that's what you do *rolls eyes*) I retrieved them.  I darted deftly into the utility room where I extracted said bags from their packets and examined them.  I then read the Taylor Lautner interview in the mag, looked at the pictures that went with it, felt ill with the wrongness of doing so and considered burning my eyes out with hot pokers.

I then, and this is where it gets bad, stashed the bags, packaging and magazines in the linen bin underneath the laundry.  That's what this has come to.  No better than some desperate alcoholic or drug addict, forced to stash their drug of choice somewhere secret where their loved ones won't find it *sigh*.

Stan is considering procuring a Wino-style beehive in which to stash all her Twi-goodies



Anyway, have also decided that I'll only be using them on dry days, I reckon the Twibag teamed with the Edbrella would be akin to double denim.  And we all know there's only one man that can get away with that...

Actually, I'm not convinced that even he can.  Hmmm

If only hoop skirts were back in fashion. Imagine all the stuff you could hide in there, including an open umbrella! Hell, maybe you could even hide Rob in there...

Well, I'd certainly be willing to give it a try...

Yes...the twi-bag and edward umbrella would be the equivalent to double denim...unless you could tote the umbrella IN THE BAG on dry days!!! I'm a genius...

There is nothing wrong with hiding your Twilight merchandise. It is a noble solution allowing you to keep your passion without hurting his dignity.

I think you might need more of a Marge-Simpson-volume beehive. Wino's is good for smaller parcels; your needs are clearly greater...

: )

@ Mrs P, that would be a fine solution indeed, if only you hadn't under-estimated the magnificence of the Edbrella. It's actually more golf-umbrella size than 'fit in a bag' size :o).

@ STY, you could be right. I'm also concerned that some of the magazines are a bit weighty, would end up walking round with my head lolling to one side. Perhaps this needs a little more thought...
