I'm very excited this morning because I've won one of the Twitarded 1st Anniversary Giveaway prizes!
This is all thanks to Mrs. P who very kindly entered my name into the comp when things weren't good for me a couple of weeks ago (still not great but I'm getting there!). I'll show my appreciation for Mrs. P with one of the Twitter manips that I picked up last night (sorry whoever I got it from, forgot to make a note, but step forward for your vote of thanks!)
Right, onto our FFF. Last week Suzspetals chose Dangrdafne as her winner. I have Dangrdafne's questions here so let's get on with it shall we?
1. Favorite quote from any of the Twilight Saga books - one quote from the entire saga only please.
If this was in the book, it would be my choice ;o)
2. Name one item on your Bucket List (In case you don't know, a bucket list is a list of things you want to do before you die).
3. Top or Bottom?
4. What does your blog and/or blogger/email name mean or how did you decide on it? Examples: Why are you Stan? Why am I Dangrdafne?
(note from Stan: This my answer btw, easier to show you, will explain in the comments :o))
5.Stephanie Meyer hosts a contest and you win the grand prize – a trip to a Twilight Saga set location of your choice - movie or book (as we know they are not always the same). Which location do you pick and why?
Thanks for those Dangrdafne, answers in the comments as usual people and if you're chosen as the winner you do the questions next week!
One last thing. This was posted on Twitter last night (really, if you don't go on Twitter you should, the benefits are....well, see for yourself!
Ok, feeling positively post-coital now! *sigh*

Ohh. I love being first. Last week's questions left me speachless. Had no idea of how to answer them. Hope I do better this week.
1. Favorite quote from the saga. Well that's a hard one (that's what she said). So many to choose from. I'll settle for one of my most used quotes. "How can someone so tiny be so annoying? It's a talent." Mr ADHD Jr and I have that down pat.
2. One item from my bucket list. Don't have one as I plan to live forever. Hmmmmm. How about learn yoga well enough to put my ankles behind my ears. I've heard this has certain benefits. wink, wink.
3. Top or bottom. Gotta go with top. That is the naked part. Choice really should have been front or back. I wudda picked front. Especially if the pants were mysteriously missing.
4- How did I get my Blogger name? Well I am completely Twitarded. None of that censored Twilight mom stuff for me. Plus before Twilight came into my life I was all about being a mom. Just seemed to fit.
5- Which Twilight book or movie location? Volterra for me. I'd like to see if it is like the book describes. More importantly, I've never been to Europe before.
OMFG @the manip, I will reply later, 4 arms a blur now with work, loving the pics totally-died.....
1. Favourite Quote.
mmm having dicovered the smut that is FF, its beena while since I read the books. But from what I remember I like "Stupid shiny Volvo owner" or when he says, " I just want to try one thing..." it makes my toes curl with anticipation!
2. Bucket list.
Never really thought about it. Nope got nothing. Perhaps I need to start one!
3. Is it top or bottom photo or man bits? I have always been a sucker for a nice broadish pair of shoulders and a six pack, so I would have to go with top.
4. Well my blogger/email name is obvious and incredibly boring. My name is Rebecca, hence Becky, lol,
5. location.
I would have to agree with TwitardedMom. I would like to see the Volterra in the books though, the underground tunnels in all their creepy glory.
@Nibbles speaking of manips *which always makes me snigger*, have you seen the Tattward ones on Facebook. mmmmmmm.......
Shit! The manip was fucking mind blowing, and then I go and see that photo you caught via Twitter and just die!
On to the answers now. I'm really liking the Q's btw.
1. I really don't have a favourite quote - I've only read the saga once, so I'm gonna have to skip this question, cause anything I said wouldn't be true.
2. Write a novel.
3. Bottom all way round, in every sense of the word.
4. Well, Jelena is my real name (pronounced Yellena), and I used that one when leaving comments on a blog. Only after I've decided to create my own blog did I decide to add @Twiholic to it. And, I'm a twiholic for obvious reasons (couldn't really name my blog "confessions of one jelena" as it wouldn't mean much would it?)
5. Well, I've always wanted to go to Vancouver, but that wouldn't be my first Choice - it would be Rio. I really, really want to go see Brazil, so why not at the expense of someone else. :D
I'll be here with my answers as soon as I've worked out my fave quote. I keep flicking between one page and the next and can't decided. Damn you and your strict 'one quote' rule Dangrdafne!
1. Be safe
2. meet Robert Pattinson
3. top
4. my blog, twitter, and email are all the same name, Robmusement. I chose it because Rob is my muse and I enjoy playing with him
5. Movie set, of course, wherever Rob is.
Arrgghhhh agreeing with Stan and the 1 quote thing-no fair....oooooo ok then its hehe
" you are a terrible actress-I'd say that career path is out for you"
Just fucking makes me laugh so much-bloody Stew-ped-She didn't listen did she???!!!
2)Bucket List (I lurve that film btw-I cried so much) Hmm, well I've been to Disney and I have my children, I've married a great man (finally) maybe to go to or organise (impossible to organise for me I know but...) an American Twi-Con and meet everyone. That or write a book, I know there is one in there!!! (Totally in tune with the Jelly there)
3)urrgggghhhhhhh, I have to bloody pick? Hmpff Top then, no, no bottom, yum bottom, ugh, top, definately top. Oh fuck it bottom. Yes the bottom, for sure, it's the bottom. So many benefits from both ends...sigh yes bottom.
4)Oh boy lmao my name, ok well, it started off with Nebilet, which came about by chance, I had to think of a password real quick at work once and picked something random off a post-it. I work for a Doctor so its a drug name. It became quite apt when I started using it for Rob blogs as it stops heart failure and palpitations. Then people kept mis-spelling it so it became Nibbleit and I added Pattinson cos I really, really want him to nibble something of mine and finally, Mrs P proclaimed Nibbles to be my gang (bang) name so I just kinda go by Nibbles now, eventually maybe Nib or N like an enigmatic James Bond villain. Ah Mr Pattinson, pleased to meet you I am N, I like it shaken and stirred, come here you horny mo fo....sorry rambling (again)
Where am I? Oooo number 5 ok, 5 already, wow, I was quick..
5)Ahhh another hard one, never been to Vancouver and its sounds really great; I have been to Italy a couple of times and I fucking love it there so Volterra wins for its beauty and the wine and the men bwahahaha and the wine. Did I mention the wine ooo and the Italian gelatto, drool, Rob covered in gelatto and wine, heh heh, carried away. Men in white coats coming, what you mean Dr Nibbles wants to see me...I am Dr Nibbles.
I did it again didn't I, I took up too much room...sorry...back to work lol
Smacks head* Congrats Stan, you deserve summat nice, what did you win?
Ok, I have decided.
1. Fave quote is from Eclipse:
"No." Jacob shok his head. "I'm exactly right for you, Bella. It would have been effortless for us - comfortable, easy as breathing. I was the natural path your life would have taken..." He stared into space for a moment, and I waited. "If the world was the way it was supposed to be, if there were no monsters and no magic..."
Excuse me a moment *blows nose*. Oh, that poor boy, Bella Swan is such a Ho. Oh, btw, guess which team I'm on today? ;o). In fact I finally unwrapped my Full Size Jake and spent 5 mins in the cloakroom with him. I'm quite impressed actually, wider than Edward and stays up better too. Edward seems to be getting a little limp with old age.
Sorry, off topic there, too much time with Nibbles.
2. Bucket list
For fear of repeating what has already been said my ambition has also always been to write a novel. Still promise myself I'll do it.
3. Top or bottom?
PMSL, just realised I'm actually sitting here deep in thought with my fingers on my mouth and staring out of the window while I consider the pros & cons of each! Deary me. I love a nice bottom, but if it's Taybait or Lush Lutz offering I'm not turning those tops away!
4. How did you get your screen name?
The Eminem vid for Stan came on the TV one night and I texted Mary to jokingly say that Stan's basement looks like my kitchen with all the posters (in the pic in the main post). She replied saying that she was going to call me Stan from then on. Used it when I started registering on the blogs because I can never think of user names!
Just watched the vid again this morning to get that screencap and noticed he has a mannequin thing down there too. Guess you can't get Full Size Eminem ;o)
5. Set visit
Bloody hell. Sorry, just looked and it's snowing again! That better not settle.
Ok, set visit. Not the snowy scenes in Eclipse anyway lol! Edward & Bella's cottage. It sounded lovely and cosy in the book and I'd like a nosy ;o)
Good questions Dangrdafne!
@Stan - I love your quote in the post - I would choose that too if it were real - ahahahah
This is the first time i am taking part in an answering contest and im lovin it :)
1. Twilight quote: She saw something in his face that made her strong enough.
2. Before i die i would love to visit morocco. Just love that country and their rich culture.
3. Top or bottom? i would say top.
4. My blog is called kaleidoscope. India is a color ful country. every indinan home is a celebration of colors and i am crazy about decor. Hence the name kaleidoscope - loads of color.
5. I would love to have the twilight book. The first one.
@Becky-I know manips cracks me up like a total teenage nerd saying titmouse hehehehe
@Preethi-helllooooooooooooo, hope you're not easily offended, they're all dirty sexual deviants here...except me, I'm all sweet & virginal (pmsl)
*splutter*, sorry, just spat my coffee out at Nibbles being sweet & virginal!
Welcome Preethi!
*waves* hi Ho's
Fave quote has to be "here comes the human" it makes me feel as if i'm in on a big secret
To win the Lotto, fuck it i'm shallow!
Bottom
Mary as in mary shelly the creator of Frankenstein, as in I created a (stan) monster when I introduced her to Twilight muahaahaahaa
I'm going for the honeymoon. The only chance in any book or film for a glance of the peen in action!
@Stanley congrats on the win yay wooooooohooooooooooooo :)
1. "I offered eternal servitude, remember. I’m your slave for life." Ugh...what I wouldn't give for him to say those words to me.
2. Take me and a few girlfriends on a vacation in Europe and pay for the whole thing.
3. Hard one...bottom for sure. Bottom in ALL bottom type positions.
4- This is a goofy story.
I have a "leader type" personality. In every situation I just sort of unintentionally end up the 'leader'. So when I was in eigth grade or so my friends all said, "You are our leader, you are our Great Pumpkin." So that stuck. Then in High School my friend and I were obsessed with Encino Man. And Pauly Shores Character is Stoney and I can do a good Pauly Shore impression so she started calling me Stoney. And then Stoney G. Pumpkin became my pen name all through High School and I've never dropped it.
5- Ugh...set stalking, I guess because it would make Nabs happy. She desperately wants to set stalk and I love her face so I guess I will indulge her. And I would probably have a blast in the process. Not gonna lie.
@ Stoney I especially love Nabs's face with a drawn on beard & eyebrows ;o)
@all--great questions! Will answer later after I think about my fave quote for a bit.
@Stan glad you are feeling better! Congrats on the win!
Ok, be back later, in the meantime my W.T.F Friday post is up over at Tigerlily's Tirade check it out!
laterz
That manip is the best present ever....EVER!!!! He's wearing FUR!!!!!!
OK---back to the questions...
1)"You are warm"..as Edward runs his fingers up Bella's torso in Breaking Dawn. Fuck Me!
2)I would want to audition for a movie before i die. I wish i had driven my car across country to LA instead of going to college, but I was too chicken and didn't do it. Wish i did. I think I would have been good. SO, I want to give that a go before I die or before I would only get a part as a grandmother.
3)I enjoy bottom because I'm a lazy bitch, but i find top leaves me most satisfied. Having control of the situation gets the train in the station...if you know what I mean.
4)I truly am a Mrs. P, and I also fantasize about being "The Mrs. P"..and I don't mean his mother.
5)I would want to go to Italy...I've always wanted to go to Italy.
@Nibbles rofl @'titmouse'.
@Stan where are my manners! Congrats on the win.
@Stan waddya mean I'm not virginal, yeah I have kids but I've never had sex I just swallow real hard!
(whispers I know I text that to you earlier but it was too good a retort to leave out pmsl)
@Becky hehehehe
After todays text frenzy I'm wishing I lived nearer Stan so I could go to soft play with her and her man when he comes of age rofl, oh God, TayTay does soft play bwahahaha.
Geography just plain fucking sucks lol
@Mrs P, I know I might sound like I've done loads of crazy stuff and I gotta admit I have but I wish I'd have driven across america too. We coulda been thelma and louise...hahahahahaha, I get Brad first though
@Stoney-Stoney G Pumpkin-fucking love it, I love Pauly Shore too
@Mary I think that line is great too, still no fair on just the one quote. So many lines lol
Hubs back, gotta go put my toys away, family time....but I get to play tomorrow, anyone else playing out?
First timer too. Love this blog
@nibbles - love ur 'peen' breakdown...
1. “I can feel what you’re feeling now — and you are worth it.” (Jasper-Twilight)
2. Take a culinary tour through Italy w/ foodie friends. Everything goes better w/ Pasta & Wine
3. Bottom. So many options.
4. Jayla... my middle initial is “J” – hubby uses it as my nickname.
5. Brazil- oh definitely- Brazil (Esme Island).. oh the naughty things that happen in Brazil
Congrats Stan! I love winning stuff that you didn't even sign up for yourself...or stuff that you were too drunk to remember signing up for...not that that's ever happened to me or anything! *smirk*
OK, Chicks…not gonna read your answers till after I post mine. Here goes!
1. Favorite quote…hmmm, off the top of my head (and I’m paraphrasing here, as I don’t have the book with me at the mo) I love when Bella says “That’s it, isn’t it? You’re trying to protect your virtue!” and Edward replies, “No you silly girl. I’m trying to protect yours.” Awwwwww…*sniff*
2. Bucket List…I don't really know...I suppose to go on a vacay with Mr. TwiWeasel (and only Mr. TwiWeasel...ok, and maybe some toys but that's it.) Oh and it has to be someplace warm and sunny where we could swim with the dolphins, and drink fruity drinks with little umbrellas in them, bask in the sun and then fuck like...oh wait, sorry. Got carried away.
3. Top or Bottom...I'm a bit confused by this question...top or bottom what?
Do I prefer to be on top or bottom during sex? Top...I like being in control of the pace and I can make sure the job gets done, if you know what I'm sayin'.
Or was it do I prefer to look at men naked on the top or bottom? Again it would be top...I just love muscular arms *ahem, sorry Rob* and a six pack.
Or do I prefer myself naked on the top or bottom? Top again...I believe it's been mentioned that I'm sporting a fab set of ta-tas.
Or was it...I can't think of anything else. Let's just assume that whatever the question was, the answer will be top.
4. Bloger name...I chose TwiWeasel because of Twilight (to quote my 9yo: "der") and because I've had the nickname "Weasel" in real life forever because my maiden name was one letter off from Weasel *rolls eyes* I still have a handful of people who call me "Weasel" and Mr. TwiWeasel's uncle took it one step farther and refers to me as "Ferret Face." Gotta love him. My email addy is my full name...real creative, I know. But I've had the addy since I first figured out how to do that new fangled email thingy, so I figured it's too late to change it now.
5.Location...I think I would like to go to Isle Esme because...well...refer to number 2s answer.
Alrighty Girls, that's it! Now I need to do some promised reading for Jelena...
Crap, I always forget something!
Welcome to the blog Preethi Prabhu and Jayla! We're a crazy bunch of chicks, but I'm sure you can handle it!
@ Nibbles - Welcome to the club, you wild ho!
@ TwiWeasel - I am enjoying the interpretations of the questions very much.
@TwiWeasel - you sniff at that quote? I break into hysterical laughs and rolleyes. I'm eeeevil, I know. :D
@ Dangrdafne - I kinda wondered if that's what you were doing. You're a sneaky little shit, aren't you?
@ Jelena - It depends on my mood as to whether I sniff or laugh. Actually, when I read the question, the first quote to come into my head was one I use referring to my daughter... "would this have something to do with the fact that you can't walk across a flat, stable surface without finding something to trip over?" Bwahahahaha!!
Sorry, hit post too soon...the second one I thought of was after Bella jumps out the window and lands without breaking her heels, "Bella, that was very graceful. Even for a vampire."
Neither of those quotes was my fave though... at the moment.
Lookee at that, Dangrdafne...a way around your one quote rule. Muahahaha!
OK. i AM GOING TO DO THIS WITHOUT READING EVERYONE ELSES COMMENTS, FIRST...WTF, WHY AM i TYPING IN ALL CAPS, MUST THINK i AM PRETTY IMPORTANT! LMAO
Thats better.
1. I would have to go with "You are Warm" or "Jacob was right, you're good with weird." I am sure there are some others I like more, but I don't have my books here to find them.
2. Bucket List; Write and PUBLISH a novel.
3. I like the bottom, because I think he should have to put forth some work in this endeavor, but I get more out of the top.
4. I like flowers and garden A LOT. My favorites are roses, lilies, and Rose Tiger Lilies...just seem to make since.
5. Italy. Love the food, love the men and love the culture. Would love to be there.
GAH, can't type or spell today. #4, should say just seemed to make sense. I wonder some days why I paid for that College degree in English...sheesh
I can’t wait to go back and read everyone’s answers and look at Stan’s pictures again and see how they fit in with the questions.
1. Favorite quote from any of the Twilight Saga books - one quote from the entire saga only please.
Awwwww. I didn’t even have to think about this one. “You don’t know how long I’ve waited for you.” *melted*
2. Name one item on your Bucket List (In case you don’t know, a bucket list is a list of things you want to do before you die).
See Rob in concert. I want/need him to pursue his music. It will be a shame if he doesn’t.
3. Top or Bottom? (Ha! Now the Kellan push-up pic makes TOTAL sense.)
I could say that I keep my silverware in the top drawer and my Tupperware in the bottom drawer, but where’s the fun in that? Let me try again. I keep my toys in the top drawer and my socks in the bottom drawer. Still not what you were looking for. Nosy bitches, aren’t you? Definitely a behind girl. There. I said it ; )
4. What does your blog and/or blogger/email name mean or how did you decide on it? Examples: Why are you Stan? Why am I Dangrdafne?
Love this question! I am always wondering that when I’m out and about in the bloggy universe. Mine is too easy. I’m probably the only idiot who splashed their real name and life story on their blog profile, though, so this may not be news. My favorite number has always been 17. I wore it when I played softball and my son wore it when he played sports in high school (he has never been able to get it in college). I incorporate it into everything – my ankle tattoo is in the shape of a baseball, and it has the numbers 17 and 21 (my daughter’s softball number) on it; my license plate reads MLB FN 17 (Go Cardinals!); my Facebook name (and original blogger name) is sprtzmom1721; my email address is lisa1721@gmail.com. What a win-win for me when I found out Edward would be 17 forever, thus my blog title. I have a juvenile sense of humor (shocker, I know!), and my sister is always telling me that I need to grow up. My reply is always the same...growing up is overrated, thus, my banner tagline.
5. Stephanie Meyer hosts a contest and you win the grand prize – a trip to a Twilight Saga set location of your choice - movie or book (as we know they are not always the same). Which location do you pick and why?
This is a trick(y) question. I am going to FFFOOORRRKKKSSS!!! even though they never filmed there. I am oh so tempted to say Italy because a bloggy bestie of mine would be the best travel planner ever for that trip. But then it hit me. I would wait to find out where Breaking Dawn is going to be filmed (Portland, Vancouver, in my dreams) and take a trip there so that I could have the best chance of actually meeting Rob.
Great questions, Sharon...er...Dangrdafne! Have fun picking out the winner. But you may want to wait a few days before you choose because there are a few Twi-Hos who come late to the party : ) Mwah!
Lisa
P.S.: Stan, that manip is from the awesome @CandyKizzeS24 on twitter! Here is the link to her site: http://candykizzes24.wordpress.com/
@Lisa - Planner AND guide!! When do we leave for Italy???? I'm ready now because if this work day doesn't end soon, I am going to scream! What time on the east coast does Mad Libs start please?
@ Dangrdafne, start saving up, first whispered ideas of a trip next year just came up on Twitter ;o)
@Stan - that darn Twitter thing - I miss so much on that - someone is going to have to help me figure it all out one of these days.
Alrighty, late to the party.
1)You are warm. Oh it kills me. I think I need to read the series again.
2)Zip lining.
3)See? This is a confusing question. Therefore I choose left side. Cause it's a confusing answer.
4)I held a contest for my name. My first one was Twi-swearstoofuckingmuch and was proclaimed during the great bloggy ops meeting of Aug 09 on Twitarded.
5)I think I'd go to Italy. To be honest - not sure I ACTUALLY want to meet the cast. I'd make an ass of myself for starters
@Dangrdafne - You know it!! Drunk Mad Libs starts at 7 pm on the east coast. All you have to do is sign up for twitter, find a few of us to follow and we'll help you get started. mmMoxie just started two weeks ago and was freaking out, but she's an old pro at it now. You just have to type @ before each name to send a tweet: @17foreverlisa @edbrella @MrsP_TwiBite, etc. Twilove1 just sat back and watched for awhile. You have to try it. It's so fun!
@Stan - I won't have a college spring training trip next year for my son, which has been making me so sad, but the whispers of a trip of that magnitude actually has me smiling now.
I'm home from work now and going to read everyone's answers, etc.
Hurry up and get on Twitter, twiddling my thumbs over there!
OME I just joined Twitter - I have no idea what is going on but I am there. I added 17ForeverLisa, Mrs. P, Edbrella, Snarkier Thank you and Jenny Jerkface.
Great answers, as always, girls!!! Stan, you're lucky I love you so much what with all your Jacob loving quotes, etc. Actually, the photo of the "I have your daughter" is one of the funniest things I've seen in a long time. I absolutely love how you used the pictures today with the questions. Great, great addition!
It's almost time for Drunk Mad Libs over at Twilight Sagapalooza...who's with me?
Lisa
P.S.: Welcome Preethi Prabhu and Jayla!! This is a great neighborhood. We love it here!
Okay, it's fuckin' Friday and Mama Cougar is ALL IN.
1) "Well, I'm going." - Bella
"I'll see you later then." And by the way, I adore you in dangerous, frightening ways. - Edward (Midnight Sun)
2) I really, really, REEEEALLY want to meet and have lunch with the great author Jodi Picoult. That woman just amazes me beyond measure.
3) I was literally born to be a bottom lover. Papa Cougar has an EPIC ass...it's the first thing I noticed about him. It's round....firm...fully packed. I just love me a nice, grabable ass. I'm not sure if you girls have noticed it, but PFach has THE most adorable buns...srsly. I just wanna squeeze 'em.
4) Is this not self explanatory? I am a Mama and according to current popular culture, also a Cougar since I find younger men attractive. And by younger, I mean....umm....like, 20 years younger than me. Fuck. When you see that shit in print it's a tad frightening.
5) THE COTTAGE SCENE from Breaking Dawn. I would absolutely MELT to watch that scene being shot. It is the culmination of every bit of sexual tension built up between Edward and Bella and in my imagination, it is...delicious.
Mama Cougar
The Cougar's Den
@Mama Cougar - Woot woot! So glad you stopped by to play. Love the Midnight Sun reference. So your Unicorn has a nice ass, too? Lucky you. (Mine does, too, btw and is hung like a Unicorn. Did I just type that out loud? Damn boxed wine.)
1. Favorite quote from any of the Twilight Saga books - one quote from the entire saga only please.
"Moxie, my loins ache for you. I have never felt like this before. My cock twitches every time I hear your name" yearned Edward.
2. Name one item on your Bucket List (In case you don't know, a bucket list is a list of things you want to do before you die).
fuck Robert Pattinson
3. Top or Bottom?
bottom because I bit it in the driveway today and skinned my left knee.
4. What does your blog and/or blogger/email name mean or how did you decide on it? Examples: Why are you Stan? Why am I Dangrdafne?
This may sound pathetic but I have been chatting for a long fucking time. Moxie was my chat name 13 years ago. That was taken so I added two m's.
5.Stephanie Meyer hosts a contest and you win the grand prize – a trip to a Twilight Saga set location of your choice - movie or book (as we know they are not always the same). Which location do you pick and why?
Breaking Dawn. Stand in for KStew during sex scene. RPatz finds his light and my g-spot.
Here are my answers - sorry so long:
1. Favorite quote from any of the Twilight Saga books - one quote from the entire saga only please.
I squared my shoulders and walked forward to meet my fate, with my destiny solidly at my side.
Bella Swan, New Moon, Epilogue, p.563
2. Name one item on your Bucket List (In case you don't know, a bucket list is a list of things you want to do before you die).
Visit my last state, Hawaii. I have been to all the other 49.
3. Top or Bottom?
I originally meant this as do you like to be on top or underneath for sex BUT I thought I would leave it open to interpretation with just the 2 words. Then Mrs. P added the bottom picture and led some of you that way. That is the joy of the Friday Fun Five!
Oh and look at that I didn't answer my own question... tee hee ... I will just say ... yes
4. What does your blog and/or blogger/email name mean or how did you decide on it? Examples: Why are you Stan? Why am I Dangrdafne?
My friends gave me the name based on: (from Wikipedia) During the first season of Scooby Doo, Where Are You?, Fred would sometimes refer to his cohort Daphne Blake as "Danger-Prone Daphne" because of her penchant for getting into trouble. Daphne's tendency to get into trouble is apparently something of a family trait. As her cousin Shannon explained in Scooby-Doo and the Loch Ness Monster: "For centuries we Blakes have been falling through trap doors, finding secret passageways, and getting caught in overly complicated booby traps of our own design. If there's one thing we Blakes are famous for it's being danger prone."
When I met said group of friends I had a sprained ankle, a bump on my head and a jammed thumb - all from different incidents of my doing. We just shortened it to Dangrdafne for the internet and I have proudly been that name ever since. I have gotten better in my old age and not as danger prone but I love the name and I am not changing it now :)
This may explain why I like Jenny Jerkface so much as she is apparently Velma :)
as pointed out with a great pic of Velma here:
http://latchkey-wife.blogspot.com/2010/01/yay-i-made-it-to-150.html
Oh and my picture/avi is of my cat Milo sticking his tongue out at his brother Otis.
5. Stephenie Meyer hosts a contest and you win the grand prize – a trip to a Twilight Saga set location of your choice - movie or book (as we know they are not always the same). Which location do you pick and why?
Again another question that was interpreted in various ways but I loved it. I would want to go to Italy both book (Volterra) and movie (Montepulciano which stood in for Volterra) but that is a little cheat as I did get to go to Italy (but I would go again in a second - I could leave right now - anyone?). For those that don't know I was gifted a trip to Italy in October 2009 by Dangrmomma for my 40th birthday (and her 70th). We stayed in Florence and travelled to Siena, Volterra and Montepulciano. It was AMAZING! I highly recommend Italy to anyone. So beautiful and a must for a Twitard if it can be done. I have pictures online if anyone is interested: http://photobucket.com/dangrdafneNewMoonTrip with a password of Edward
So in order to answer fairly I will say the other location I want to go to is FFFFOOORRRKKKSSS and luckily that dream will come true too this year with all my awesome Twitard friends. I am sure Dangrmomma will be staying at home for this trip ;)
Thanks to all for taking the time to answer my questions. I love getting to know you all.
@Dangrdafne - Take a bow, girlie! Well done. Well done!
@All - Do yourself a favor and check out the pics of her Italy trip. I responded to a comment she made on Twitarded a while back and asked if she would share her pictures, which she did. I then said she needed to share them with JJ & STY, and she did. The rest, as they say , is history. We have been bloggy besties ever since. I can't wait to meet Sharon in real life in FFFOOORRRKKKSSS!!!
It's after midnight, not Friday anymore but I loved Dangrdafne's questions so I'm gonna answer anyway! Just for my own pleasure;)
1) It's a random one, but I get a little shiver every time Edward says "Truly I do" in New Moon in response to Bella's epiphany of his love. If Midnight Sun were included then it would be "Seriously, how had I missed this before?" when he realizes what a klutz she is. It cracks me up.
2) I don't think about this too much because I've achieved a lot of my dreams, but one that hasn't happened yet is going to Italy to see the Pieta, among other great works of art. (Including Edward if he happens to be in town.)
3) Bottom. I have no rhythm when it comes to certain things (like clapping:) so I refuse to concentrate that much.
4) Suzspetals is a twist on Zuzu's petals from "It's a Wonderful Life" when George realizes his daughter's rose petals are back in his pocket. I'm a sap.
5)I had no desire to visit the Pacific NW again (long story) until this stupid trip to Forks which I'm now determined to make. But if it's on Steph's tab, then definitely Volterra.
Awesome questions! Now I'll go back and read the answers, then I'm sure to have more shit to say.
@Twitardedmom - sorry my questions stumped you last week. I do that to myself all the time.
@mmMoxie - go take a cold shower for God's sake!
@Dangrdafne - great questions and probably the best answer to the blogger question. Good story.
I too was confused by the top/bottom question and probably offered TMI. That's why this game is so fun!
I feel like 17ForeverLisa - I want to respond to all of you:
@Twitarded Mom - living forever hmmm sounds like you need a real Edward in your life to accomplish that.
@Becky - unfortunately I didn't find any actual underground tunnels when I was in Volterra
@Jelena - thanks for liking my questions - I was nervous. Rio is an excellent choice for the location visit.
@Robmusement - I love your name.
@Nibbles - Loved all your answers! You are a funny funny woman and you never cease to amaze me with your posts.
@Stan - excellent quote/paragraph choice ;) LOVE the story of your name. May I also ask how you came up with Twi-Edbrella? We should look for a FSE where the E is Eminem for you!
@Preethi - welcome! I love your blog name. You answered "I would love to have the twilight book. The first one." do you not own the book series? If not, how can I fix that for you?
@Mary - I find your quote choice and the reason for your blog name so very very interesting. 'Here comes the Human' and Mary Shelley tried to create a human, just interesting. I am odd, I know.
@Stoney - Love your name story - it's not goofy at all.
@Mrs. P - Get thee in a car and get to LA woman!!! I always wanted to go to Italy too and I did. Get thee in a plane and get to Italy after LA :)
@Jayla - welcome aboard! That quote you chose makes me tear up when I read it. Since I have felt like Bella many times in my life I try to hear it like it is meant for me.
@TwiWeasel - Sorry to confuse you on the top or bottom question, but I liked your answer, er answers. I have always loved your name (and I liked you weasel avi too). And if you want to break the rules of the one quote question who am I to stop you...and look I didn't...or couldn't ;)
@TigerlilyRose - like the qualification of write and PUBLISH a novel. I am actually surprised how many of you want to do the same. I can't imagine me doing that.
@17ForeverLisa - Funny lady with your top or bottom answer ;) I love your name story - I love how 17 was already your fave and then Edward fit right into it. Perfect!
@CullenaryCurser - I'm a righty ;) LOVE your name!! When I saw your name change I think I actually applauded - not that I didn't enjoy your entirely too long old name but I absolutely love this one!
@MamaCougar - I like your bucket list choice. I agree with your PFach assessment (ha I said ass there).
@mmMoxie - thanks for playing along! Love your made up quote - I hear that alcohol talking ;) You are definitely full of moxie and whatever it is you were drinking!! It was great hanging with you last night!
@Suzspetals - I love that quote too and I always can imagine the face he makes when he says it, oooo I love it. LOL Excellent reason for your bottom choice :) Your name story is so sweet. Glad you will be headed to FFFOORRRKKSSS. No such thing as TMI in Twitardia!
@ All - So I have to pick a winner now. Hmmmm, it was hard (that's what she said), I loved all of you playing along but one stood out not just for this post but for a whole week of excellent posts. That would be our resident psychic (although some might say psychotic) NIBBLES!!!!
I must admit, though, I am afraid of the questions she might pose.
Until next Friday!!!!
@Dangrdafne I think we should be very afraid, lol!
Bwahahahaha Dangrdafne I thank you for the honour of picking me to win and I will think carefully about my sensitive and of course tasteful questions for the next FFF. I'm playing about working out how to post stuff and I can't wait to release my spawn upon you.....that sounds quite perverted...hmm... bit like me
@Dangrdafne - Bravo!! Great questions, personal answers, rundown of everyone else's answers, and great choice for next week's FFF. Look out, Twi-hos...Nibbles is coming down from the attic...LOL!
