"You remember your first kiss forever... and ever."
I watch Vampire Diaries.
I enjoy it.
I guess I do have a thing for good looking vampires.
(Kinda addicted to "True Blood" too...)
Maybe that is something I need to address (someday)
I know a lot has been said about what a copy VD is of Twilight.
And oh yes... it is.
But while there are so many similarities...
For a cable TV show... it has more intimacy than Twilight ever did.
"When you can live forever... who do you live for?"
And hey... I get the whole longing for but never getting theme
of the Twilight series.
Doesn't mean I have to like it.
But that is neither here nor there
or anywhere...
Here a horse, there a horse...
Everywhere a horse, horse.
(of course)
Sorry.
I don't know WHERE the hell that came from.
OK.
Hmmm....
Not really hiding the fact that "Stefan Salvatore" is a more
generic clone of "Edward Cullen"
Is one better than the other?
What is the name of this blog?
Repeat after me...
Robert
Pattinson
INTOXICATION.
So.
Robert wins.
But while Stefan isn't as gloriously alluring as Edward...
Stefan ain't too shabby.
(I typed 'shappy' at first... looked at it and thought...
What the fuck is shappy?)
We have all seen Robert with his shirt off...
There was LOTS of speculation that his abs were 'enhanced'...
Possibly.
But you gotta have the basics to make it look good...
You know what I mean?
(Do I know what I mean?
I'm feeling a bit shap-happy at the moment)
Um...
Paul wins on the abs.
Even though I prefer Robert's body type
(long, lean...)
over the overt muscle-ness of Paul.
But no complaints, Paul...
No complaints.
At all.
So that just brings me to the last Teen Choice Awards.
Remember?
Yeah... now I bet you do.
Throughout much of the evening...
Everytime they showed Robert in the audience
he looked kinda like this.
Kinda like...
"Why the fuck am I here...
and damn I really miss Kristen."
(heh)
Yeah... so.
For the most part Robert is looking all bored outta his mind...
And then the Vampire Diaries cast comes up
I don't remember if they won something
or if they were giving something out...
But the camera cut to Robert in the audience.
And I laughed incredibly hard....
OK... this wasn't it...
But seriously...
He looked like he was thinking...
"WHATtheFUCK??"
It was one of the few enjoyable moments of the evening.
That being said...
I like Vampire Diaries.
I like True Blood.
I lied.
I really really love True Blood
Sexy
Bloody
and
Alexander Skarsgard
Um...
He does EVERYTHING right.
Vampire Perfection.
And that brings me to my final thoughts.
1. Don't you love this picture?
Big smiles.
Kristen's hand on Robert's thigh.
Robert's arm around Kristen's arm...
Looking like he's about to hold her hand...
2. Her Brother.
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
3. I kinda apologize for being so scattered and giddy today.
Lots of stuff going through my head.
Good stuff.
Awesome stuff.
So maybe I don't apologize.
Nothing wrong with being happy!
I might even have to
*TWIRL*
a time or two (thousand)
4. A lot of 'cast' sightings in BR.
So far the only ones I have seen are
Ashley and Kellan in the company
of Joe Jonas.
And oh yes...
Ashley kissing Joe
amid screams of
"THAT'S HOW IT'S DONE!"
knowing that if a picture like that of
Robert and Kristen appeared
The world as we know it would fucking end.
With a great relationship
comes great responsibility.
Remember that.
This post is brought to you by the letter *S*
S for SMITTEN
Exactly how Robert looks when he is close to Kristen.
Just because there's not a picture...
Doesn't mean it didn't happen.
Because it did.
You just weren't there.
;)
Bye for now

I've never seen the Vampire Diaries but that guy does nothing for me.
No comparison--Rob is better--sexier--hotter--you name it.
Is it just me or does that Vampire Diaries guy look square? He's no Rob, that's for sure!!
I'm already feeling the drought! :(
I've got to say Rob wins with the abs, I don't like the kind of body type or abs that Paul has. Or Kellan's/Taylor's. I like skinny abd guys if that's right? ;)
Ashley has been papped in Baton Rouge...Why wouldn't that surprise me? I wonder when Rob and Kristen are spotted together. Rose, do you have a feeling of anything happening? Usually when you have one, in less than a week something happens.
Yeah, the VD dude doesn't look right.
As for True Blood--Vampire Eric is very attractive but I have a thing for Vampire Bill.
Guess I'm just chatty today, huh? LOL
angelica1, he does look square! I like a bit of a shape when it comes to abs, and not massive abs either.
I'm not a Stefan fan (Go Damon!), but I definitely agree with the Alexander Skarsgard love. I have been reading your blog for the past few months and it made my day to learn that you also love my other favorite vampire. Besides, Robert is WAY hotter when he is not playing a vampire, IMO.
Yeah,I prefer Bill to :)
As for Ashley being papped,SHOCKER!!
Brilliant, sassy writing, Rose! Always love your blog.
Ok I agree I don't really like the Vampire diaries that much. And I agree with SueBee Rob is better than the imitations. But I have to say every time I see the phrase
"VD guy" the image of vampires and great abs goes out of my head and I find myself thinking about penicillin shots.
Congrats Suebee on first comment!
I've never watched VD if you like it Rose I may have to give it a try. I love True Blood :)
Great post, Rose!!!
I hope everyone has a wonderful afternoon!!
BBL
When I wrote VD guy I thought--Oh great-venereal disease guy! LOL
Not intended.
I could count the ways Rob wins hands down but it's common knowledge.
And not to sound weird--but I like when a man has a bit of hair on his chest (Light layer not sasquatch)! It looks more natural to me.
There really is only one Sexy Vampire and he isn't on True Blood or VD (that's a disease you know). I do admit though, that I was kind of partial to Spike from Buffy.
Congrats Sue on first.
Robert Wins...Hands Down!!
No Comparison!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
That's why Robert is on the Big Screen!!!
Hi Rose!!
The guy from 'Vampire Diaries' doesn't do nothing to me...Rob WINS BIG TIME.
Why do I have to enter my password twice?
It looks like we're all on the same page with the VD.
Sue,
I agree, a little man-fur is nice.
OF COURSE ROBERT WINS!!!!
He always wins!
I actually prefer the other vampire on Vampire Diaries, Ian Somerhalder.
Robert Pattinson not only wins against other vampires... he just fucking WINS. Period.
:))
Rose i have to give it to you once more You just know what to say. I miss our boy cant wait to see his beautiful face and you are right about his love for kristen you can only see it in his eyes and in that BIG FUCKING SMILE he has when he with her .i'v haven't seen Vampire Diaries But I can say the boys do look sexes BUT not as good as Rob that man is beyond sexy hummmmmmm What a lucky Girl Kristen is to have all that and then some. DEB
Rose~
There is no comparison with Paul and Robert...Robert wins hands down!!
Robert just has that allure, that look, you know? Everything about him comes shining through!! :)
Yummy Alexander!! He can do bad things to me...hehe...I LOVE True Blood!!
Have a great weekend all (norm and sane)!!
~Lynn
I like the shoulders. A nice set of strong shoulders gives you something to hang on to.
(Did I say that out loud?) Oh well! It's true!
As for wash board abs--a bit of definition work for me--doesn't have to be squares you can scrub your clothes on.
Rose,
Ditto.
bwaahahhhaha:" with a great relationship comes great responsibility." You are the best!
Hey everyone!
Ooooooh nice post Rose ;-)
I've never seen True Blood or Vampire Diaries but just from the pics alone yeah I definitely agree....Rob wins hands down.
Hope your all having a great Friday!
Much love,
Liza
Leeeeeeeeeeeeza!
Hi Sweetie!
You've never seen True Blood? I highly recommend it!
Hi SueBeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!
I know I said it last night but you look so lovely in your outfit! Total knockout.
No I haven't seen either of them. I don't really watch all that much tv. Maybe I'll check it out though if you recommend it :-)
*huuuuuuuugs*
I've always had a thing for vamps, can't explain it because I don't like most movies dealing with the occult or demonic in nature. But vamps...maybe because there's usually something still human about them. Winona Ryder and Gary Oltman in Brahm Stoker's Dracula....there's something about that that gets me.
True Blood looks...too bloody for me. I've been watching and loving VD, but its losing some of its draw for me.
I agree, Rob hands down over all. His self-effacing humor, gorgeous face, nice bod that isn't obsessed over, drinking beer, hanging w/ friends - I love it! And...while the abs may have had some help, they're his!
There's no comparison between Twilight/Robert and Vampire diaries/Paul. It's like comparing a good steak with tofu...
But I can choose between Salvatore brothers, and I go for Damon!
Dear Rose, I'm missing Rob and Kristen. Your blog, the pics are compensating a bit the longing for Robsten, but I need Robsten news, pics!! How long shall we have to wait?
Do you get HBO in England? Sorry if that's a stupid question.
Thanks for the compliment on the pic! (Hugs) I'll pay you later! LOL
This was a sexy post! As for who is the hottest...well Rob because he has more than just great looks.
I like the VD- attractive cast and interesting story lines. Ian definitely has my vote as hottest on that show.
I saw one episode of TB and that was it. Never got into it for some reason but if we are talking hot guys well it has to be Joe Manganiello (yes I know a werewolf-switching sides this time).
In the grand scheme of things the vamps always win!
more reason to come...
(side note- VD is a STD, so ROB WILL ALWAYS WIn)
Robert Pattinson why i love him...
tell me if you agree
He is intimidated by press/Hollywood.
He disconnects himself from the success of Twilight.
Fame chased him, he didn’t chase fame.
He doesn’t take things for face value, enjoys learning, understanding, and analyzing scripts, books, movies, song lyrics.
He tries to make good jokes in interviews, because someone told him to be funny, but it always turns out awkward.
He fills silences with nonsense, and admits that he does that.
He naturally dazzles when he sees Kristen, no vampire powers needed.
The fact that he is interested in a girl like Kristen, she is awesome.
He has a cool group of friends, his family is seems fun too.(I want to meet his parents, he speak so nicely of them.)
He did a movie about Sept. 11, and produced because he cared so much for the project.
Okay, Joe the werewolf on TB is the only wolf I like. The guy is huge, like 6 foot 5?
I always imagined the wolves on Twilight looking like him. Think Someone dropped the ball there.
Ohmigosh.. Alexander Skarsgård... *dreamy sigh*
I don't watch Vampire Diaries.. kiddo does. I know the book series has been around for quite a while, and she reads those too. The guys are cute enough I suppose.. but yeah.. gotta agree. Rob wins overall against those guys. :)
Hi everybody!!! *hugs*
One more thought- I totally don't get the Alexander love...seriously don't get it.
Melinda
I prefer brunettes, myself
SueBee, no we don't have HBO but True Blood and Vampire Diaries are both shown here.
Tracy!! I was just going to msg you and see if you were around!
*kisses*
Wait, that didn't sound right. It sounded like I prefer myself. (WTF? Right?)
I mean that I prefer brunette men.
Okay, just had to fix that!
Susan I knew what you meant. LOL!
I find myself attracted to men with brown hair as well over blondes.
Liza!! *HUGS*
I'm here! You're here! w00t!
:) LOVE YOU!
Chabad,
I liked your post. Especially, "he didn't chase fame, it chased him'.
hello rose....i twirl with you...and i can understand, that ther is no picture of a kiss between rob and kristen...there's no need for one. and the open pda between ashley and joe, sorry i have to say it, grosses me out. there is no privacy there. it's too much..tooo clingy...and too fake for my liking. so i prefer the privat relationship btw rob and kris, just my opinion. and i really hate the vampire diaries, cause they don't have to do anything with the original books anymore!
Yay Tracy!
I sent you a little parcel today!
:-D
LOVE YOU TOO!
OH Rose! I remember watching the first season of TB when it wasn't this popular. The gore, hard core sex. Yummy. :) Though I am more of a Bill girl , he doesn't get enough credit IMO, now when Anna and Stephen got together it's obviousness they met on the set. There fans didn't go spread hate to diff fan sites and there are many TB fan sites out there. Them meeting reminded so so much of R and K. Now um look where they are in there relationship :)Though there fans are much older then the Twilight Saga's and it so shows with how this fan base acts for the most part. I also love Vampire Diary's, but it really pisses me off we see more passion and sex on reg TV then the Twilight Saga will ever do.
Summit panders to the tween fan base ,when most of us real fans who spend money are over 21. I kind have excepted that part of being a Twilight fan. It is what it is,but what I really cant wait for Rob and Kristen to be done with it to be honest, sometimes it seems it holds them back to a point. The movies are criticized constantly and the fans act like screaming nuts LOL I want them to be taken seriously in the industry.
oh Rose..no pic of Ian? he is one sexy vamp boy! Is it hot in here?
I have to add Spike and Angel! I miss them so! I wish they would make a Buffy the Vampire Slayer movie, like a good one not that shit from 1990 !
Maybe KS can be Buffy? dye her hair blond? Rob can be Angel or Spike! ;)
me likes this post
me doesnt really like VD or TB
I watched about 4 episodes of VD and while I like Paul and I absolutly adore Ian, the show was just ... meh.
and TB? yeah, I saw 10 minutes of it and I guess that was enough for me. not my cup of tea at all.
I guss I like me my nerds more then I like me the vampires. wouldnt mind Rob playing a nerd again. he would look hot in glasses. which reminds me that I have yet to see BMH or HTB. so many movies, so little time
*twirl you later*
I changed my mind. Rob can be Spike. (I want him to play a bad sexy Vamp)
Tom can play Angel. How would that go down ya all think? LOL
Uhm.. it's not his hair that I'm attracted to!! Just sayin!!
;) hehehehehehehe
I'll be anxiously waiting for my parcel Liza :) *HUGS*
Rose, great blog as usual. I too like Vampire Diaries and Stefan is very cute, but he doesn't compare to our Rob. I also watch True Blood, and there are lots of good looking guys on there, but again, they don't compare to our Rob. I know Rob and Kris are together, and we don't need pictures, although they are nice to see occasioally.Take care Rose, I think I will twirl myself, once or twice or 100 times. Have a good weekend fellow Roselanders.
Hi Barbara! Come chat with us some time :)
He he Tracy! I'm not sure I know what you mean ;-) lol
Hi 30 & Melinda!
30 - I think Tom would be better as Giles. I can definitely see Kristen as Buffy and Rob as Spike though :)
I was watching am old film today, Spellbound. I loved those old movies and realized that the actors I found the most attractive were tall, lean and classy; Jimmy Stewart, Henry Fonda and Gregory Peck. Alot of the actors now are buff and macho. This is why I am drawn to Robert, he's just classy.
Birdie "Spellbound" AWESOME movie..and you're right about Rob..classy
30,
I see you were a Spike fan too. I admit I've always had a thing for vampires.
I always liked Giles too, but I think it was the accent and just the character in general.
Birdie-
I so agree with you! Do you know some media outlets have called Rob and Kristen a modern day Bogie and Bacall. I can see that.
Tracy- well I am going to take your word for it but for looks purposes Alexander still does nothing for me.
Hey 30, Kami, Penny and Liza! Gotta get all my greetings in.
Melinda,
I can so see that. Now they were a class act. Lauren Bacall oozed sexuality.
Hi, Birdie, Liza, Tracy, Kami, Melinda, Angelica,30,
Did I miss anyone? Hello if I did.
Melinda,
Alexander does nothing for me either. There's something about his face that reminds me of McCauley Culkin, the Home Alone kid.
It takes all kinds otherwise we'd all want to be married to the same guy.
Hi Penny! :-)
PL- LOL he kind of does...
Okay gotta make a run to the store.
Cheerio ( that's for you Liza but I am sure you probably never say that, we Americans just imagine you do!)
Hi Penny :)
Cheerio Melinda! lol
Hi everyone sorry it took me so long, got a delivery..I think my hubby is up to something..yesterday Roses,like this ---------->
today a live plant.
Kami,
That is so sweet. And some people say the romance dies when you get married. What do they know.
I've got to go now and fix dinner. Isn't that romantic?
Rose,
This post made me laugh just because you were so random and kinda sorta manic. Thanks for the giggle!
Gotta run for a few.. have to track down the kiddo, and do the dinner thing, and so on so forth :)
Be back in a little bit!
Yeah, it is very sweet and romantic, he is a wonderful husband and I love the gifts however to me I think it spells out "By the way babe It's going to take much longer than expected"
Oh yes Penny, I am a huge Buffy the Vampire fan. I read the comics to!
Smitty,
So you're still lucid? Then I think you're ok. Thanks for checking in.
So,I'm watching New Moon and can I just say how much it annoys me when Jacob and Alice say "Charrrrrrrlie" !!
I LOVE Vampire Diaries, it's really gotten good this year. And last season they even had a little blurb about Twilight lol yea they're nice to look at but I'm with you Rose, Rob wins everytime for me. Thanks Rose
Really interesting post today Rose.
Rob wins hands down. No contest whatsoever!
Many great comments,
770, liked your list.
Birdie and Kami...yes, he is so classy and I see him growing in the same vein as the older greats as he matures.
Don't care at all for the VD's Paul. Ian, however, is the good looker on that show. (Go former Lost cast member.)
Agree with several; Alex does absolutely nothing for me. And OMG, Penny Lane, that is exactly it, he does look somewhat like McCauley Culkin.
Smitty, glad you are OK.
The worst that I ever did was go for a bike ride with some friends, not pay attention to where I was going; we all turned to look at a deer running across the road into the woods, and then I rode smack into the back bumper of a parked car on the side of the road. Of course I fell over and of course was the laughing stock of the group. Survived with only gravel burns, a sprained wrist and no whiplash thank goodness.
Cate, awesome potato leek soup recipe. Will try this weekend.
Hugs to all
For Rose:
What you write, now that's entertainment!
Everything's Coming Up Roses
You'll be swell, you'll be great.
Gonna have the whole world on the plate.

Blow a kiss, take a bow.
Honey, everything's coming up roses.
Now's your inning, stand the world on it's ear.
Set it spinning, that'll be just the beginning.
Curtain up. Light the lights.
You got nothing to hit but the heights.
You'll be swell, you'll be great.
I can tell, just you wait.
That lucky star I talk about is due.
Honey, everything's coming up roses for me and for you.
You can do it, all you need is a hand.
We can do it, Mama is gonna see to it!
Curtain up. Light the lights.
We got nothing to hit but the heights.
I can tell, wait and see.
There's the bell, follow me.
And nothing's gonna stop us 'til we're through.

Cate made the Potato Leek soup for dinner, it's kinda cold and really cloudy here...and it is soooooooooo good! thank you thank you thank you! Kami
Penny Lane
Couldn't find anyone to credit for the "Friendship Poem" and it is feely circulated on the internet. Guess you can pass it on without worry.
DK
Rose as usual love the post. Love the randomness. Maybe I'm not as crazy as I thought for watching all the vampire shows. Apparently there are several people in the same boat. Looking at the comments on the last post I noticed someone counting RNs on this site. Well I mostly just lurk here but I'm proud to say I'm a part of that club too. I'm a newborn nursery nurse. How funny is it that there's a lot of vampire loving, Rob obssessed RNs running around on the planet?
Leslie,
I was asking that. I had read multiple posts that led me to believe there may be few nurses on here. I work in outpatient surgery.
Cate! I copied that potato soup recipe also. OMG My tummy was growling just writing it! That is one I am def going to make soon :)
Love out to all of the Roseland nurses!
We're so lucky to have you.
Please feel free to give me advice and boss me around, when you feel it is necessary or you're in a mood.
DK
Hello Roselanders,
Hope you are all having a dynamite day!
Good Post Rose, I guess being a vampire is the "in" thing...I'll take the 109 yr. old guy anyday...
@ Kami,
I googled "Snap the Garter Game", and it brought it up, its under bedroom games,striptease--LOL
I also wanted to clarify something about my BF granny---I posted from work, and was in a hurry and she ended up sounding like a floozie, which she was not..when I called her "baby doll", I meant she always looked nice, had her hair done, wore make-up, was always as neat as a pin...in no way did I mean she got pimped out..LOL
Hi Bren Hi Kami Hi all! Where is everyone tonight? I mean how dare you all have a life outside of Roseland LOL
If I miss any of you, have a great night! Reminder: Supernatural is having some thing on tonight about the Cullen Vampires or something. Ck it out ;)
LOL Bren thank you so much I appreciate it and Your BF Granny sounds wonderful
Birdie, Leslie, Dreamer,
I'm also an RN. I've worked Labor and delivery for a long time. I love my job and feel very lucky to be in this profession. Yes, I've noticed that several people here are RN's too.
Birdie
Oops, I misunderstood. So take me off of the nurse count, I am not 1.
Cate
Soup recipe appreciated and bookmarked, thanks.
lacey8
((Big hug))
Dreamer
I'm not birdie but didn't mean to have your name up there as part of the nurse count. :)
HI GUYS...question...cause i know next to nothing about the other vamps series... is VD AND
Cold Blood both a series of books?????
I WOULD LOVE TO READ THE OTHERS, BUT FIRST I AM STILL OBSESSED WITH TWILIGHT AND FIND MYSELF GOING BACK TO THOSE STORIES OVER AND OVER.
I have a Kindle...the best thing ive ever had...i downloaded Bel Ami for free cause since its over 100 yrs old u dont have to pay for it. heh (i would have paid for it though just cause im intersted in ALL of Robs projects)
Have a great weekend everybody...my husband is in San Jose Ca at a conference and im home alone...
DK how r u tonite?
Dreamerkind,
Thank you for the hug! It just made me cry because I think I got in trouble here yesterday. I posted something yesterday in reaction to and totally aimed at the bad person here yesterday. I won't even go into it but it was deleted. I know it was kinda (pretty) racy but trying to be funny too. I'm rambling I know but I love this blog, hardly ever post, but thought I was kicked out of Roseland. You are SO sweet!!!
Thank You,
Lacey
Hello Roselanders!
Rose-great post. Rob wins hands down. He's a total package: beautiful face, body, height, humor and personality every woman wants. Lucky Kristen indeed and he hit the jackpot with Kristen too. Two peas in a pond ;-)
I dont watch VD but that Ian guy is cute. Im not particularly an abs-woman(if there such a word) but i can appreciate one. Im into the eyes and lips kind. Both Rob and Tom have beautiful eyes, you can see depth and mischief esp. in Tom.
I also watched TB's first season, it was ok but too much sex its like im watching vampire porn, LOL (no offense meant to TB fan here)
Lacey8
As far as I know, only Rose kicks people off of this blog, sweets!
Then again, she is a very fair-minded, judicious blogger and I doubt that she would do that, only to very offensive, extreme posters.
Leo the cybergod is Rose's bud in the fight against that, and he "toasts" culprits, too. (Smitty & Company, many thanks.)
For sure, posts in cyberspace are easy to misunderstand, as we all know.
Welcome aboard, Matey!
Gwenie
Hi, Snookems!
30 says you two can be buds on FB and if you agree, tell me and I'll email the info. to her.
DK
LACEY8...Just wanted to say HI if u r still there. I WORKED L&D for many yrs. i still have to run over there from time to time to do a C Section but i have been in the main OR mostly for the last 10 yrs.
SuperRNGP
I am. Thanks for asking. And you, all is going well?
DK
Hello Buntsy!
It ok for me, the more the merrier, lol.
I see you Bren...its still early for our night session ;-)
Dreamer, Thank you for that! I'm just a worrier I guess and my mouth gets me in trouble sometimes, our doctors would amen to that. I know Leo is the bomb and does what's best!! But thanks again, you've made me feel better!
I have to got to work soon. We had the cutest, cuddliest babies last night!
SuperRNGP,
Yes, we love our anesthesists! We see them a lot between doing our epidurals and C-Sections! It's so funny all the I love you's and marraige proposals they get after taking away pain with an epidural.
Ya'll are lifesavers!!
Roselanders are:
Nurses, worriers, mafia, posse, warriors, mothers, lovers, defenders, cooks/bakers, comics, fairies, advocates, flappers, friends, family, wits, smartypants.
Got any others to add?
DK
LOL, im thinking where i fit in to those choices.
You forgot the lurkers ;-)
HI DK... im just watching sum tv and checkin the blog...did u say u r in chicago area? i have always wanted to go...maybe someday..one of our docs said its like NYC BUT THE PEOPLE ARE MUCH NICER. We didnt have any Crashers today??
LACEY8..I appreciate all u guys do...
Hi! Roselander's!
Must agree Rob is the best vamp out there. I liked Alec O'loughlin in Moonlight also.
Glad to hear Smitty is okay. I manage to bang my head on a regular basis. At work they love to make fun of me about that. It's an ongoing joke. How I can drive a truck and not hit anything but walk and kill myself is amazing.
I'm gonna try that potato soup it sounds delish.
My computer is still hanging out in Cali so I'm slow typing on the phone still. Gotta work tomorrow also. But I'm enjoying the full moon. Makes me think of Louisa. I miss her.
Linda
Thanks! Going to work. Bye....
SuperRN
Yes, born & raised in Chicago, the Second City, to none!
We are very friendly, slightly off kilter, Cubs, Sox, Bears, Blackhawks and beef sandwich fans, highly intoxicating folks.
"You'll have the time, the time of your life,
I saw a man, who danced with his WIFE, in Chicago"
Holler my way, when you think you might come, for a proper greeting.
Wildhart007
Linda,
So good to hear your cyber voice.
I liked Louisa's sense of humor, maybe she will come back.
DK .. i certainly will check with u if i get to the vicinity... i heard there is a restaurant there where the waiters "insult" the customers...sounds hilarious. Oh, also, i saw ur post to SUE BEE about the botox...i have been injecting it at my skin clinic about 5 years... the botox cosmetic also relieves the migraines...dont really know exactly what the difference is between that formula and the medical one. i'll ask the rep nxt time he comes by.
BIRDIE...hello to u too....just saw ur post
DK
I work with someone from Chicago. They are constantly talking about the Bears. I've been there once when very young. All I. Remember is going to a restaurant where u put your order in on a H0 train and it would bring your order b ack.
HI LESLIE too. I think nurses that love TWILIGHT AND rOB R NUMEROUS... thats how i learned about it in the first place. i started asking about it at work and everybody had read the books so i felt compelled to check it out. never thought it would lead to all of this. lol
DK... we have met dennis deyoung (STYX) he is from chicago..he loves the SOX
SuperRN
At Ed Debevic's you'll get a tongue-lashing and not of the pleasant kind from the waitstaff. It is hilarious and you get to give the same, right back.
I'd bet Dennis was from the South side.
Say, maybe we need a Styx song about now!
Wild
Linda, now you've got me curious and I will get the name of that old restaurant with the HO trains, you mentioned. It's tugging at my brain to be released but it needs some help.
Yeah...they were good< i ll be listening out for ur lyrics and such...u come up with sum great stuff..i might doze off but i will check on and off have a great evening
I wanted to run something past y'all, if you don't mind. It happened yesterday. An older religious lady I deliver medicine to on a regular basis kinda shocked me yesterday.
She always gives me a hug and tells me everything will be okay. Yesterday when I was on my way back to my truck she said three days. I. Stopped and she repeated three days. I asked her what she was talking about. She said the holy spirit just told her in three days I would have something happen to me. She said she did not know what it was.
Kinda freaky. Never had that happen. Before. She has never seemed extreme or prophetic before. An y thoughts?

DK,
I do believe you forgot to add yourself to your list---our favorite DJ....
Hi Gwen,
What's happening girly-girl.....
Show Me The Way
Every night I say a prayer in the hope that there's a heaven.
And everyday I'm more confused as the saints turn into sinners.
All the heroes and legends I knew as a child,
have fallen to idols of clay
And I feel this empty place inside,
So afraid that I've lost my faith
Show me the way, show me the way
take me tonight to the river
And wash my illusions away
Please show me the way
And as I slowly drift to sleep, for a moment dreams are sacred.
I close my eyes and know there's peace in a world,
so filled with hatred
That I wake up each morning and turn on the news,
to find we've so far to go.
And I keep on hoping for a sign, so afraid that I just won't know.
Show me the way,
Show me the way
Bring me tonight to the mountain
And take my confusion away
And show me the way
And if I see a light, should I believe
Tell me how will I know
Give me the strength and the courage
To believe that I'll get there someday
And please,
Show me the way
Styx shows us the Way:

That's how I would take that 3 days comment from the HS & the Lady, as gospel (good news).
DK
be back later guys im cooking for lunch, chicken ginger stew everyone? Haha
DK
That Styx son g was pretty appropriate. Hope I didn't weird everyone out. Just came across as so strange at the time. Maybe ill win the lottery lol,would rather meet my soul mate though.
gwen
You are a tease! I'd like some chicken ginger stew-so bring forth the recipe, Snooks!
WILDHEART LINDA...its hard to say..sometimes people do have psychoticreactions to medications for instance. probably nothing for u to be worried about but just in case, keep an eye out on sunday i guess and let us know...
I have had some strange things happen to me over the years...along that line sort of...one day i was eating lunch with co workers in the cafeteria at the hospital and a nurse sat down next to me asked me for the salt and pepper...i was engaged in conversation with the person seated across from me so i just picked up the salt and pepper and sat it by her plate and continued my conversation.. she then tapped me on my shoulder and asked me why i handed her the salt and pepper and i looked at her astonished and said because u asked me to and she said no i didnt but i was thinking it. so thats just one example of weird that ive had...i believe we should keep ourselves "open" to possibilities but not get too worked up about it.
DK...thx for the STYX
Wild & Super
So great isn't it, that we can have the spiritual, medical, practical and magical all mixed up, to guide us at Roseland.

One
One singular sensation
Every little step he takes.
One thrilling combination
Every move that he makes.
One smile and suddenly nobody else will do;
You know you'll never be lonely with you know who.
One moment in his presence
And you can forget the rest.
For the guy is second best
To none,
Son.
Ooooh! Sigh! Give him your attention.
Do...I...really have to mention?
He's the One?

Peripatetic, poetic and chic.
She walks into a room
And you know from her
Maddening pose, effortless whirl,
She's the special girl.
Stroll-ing,
Can't, help,
All of her qualities extol-ling.
Loaded with charisma is my
Jauntily sauntering, ambling shambler.
She walks into a room
And you know you must
Shuffle along, join the parade.
She's the quintessence of making the grade.
This is whatcha call
Trav-ling.
Oh, strut your stuff!
Can't get enough
Of her.
Love her.
I'm a son of a gun,
She is one of a
Kind...

Truly, it is very exciting!

All I have to say is LOL.....
Dreamkind & Birdie you are ever so subtle but hilarious too......
Louisa
Is that you, lovely girl?
Rose, do you have a sideview of shirtless Rob? In a sideview you can easily tell if his ab was enhanced or not.
Thanks a lot Rose and more power.
BTW, I hate VD.
Hi DK,
Sorry I'm so late, had company tonight--
Is Gwen around?
Bren
Why? Is gwen your friend and not me?
OK funny lady, I just figured she might not be here cuz it's not a work day for her.
mujihko, mujihko
Go to PattinsonAnonymous.com.
They analyzed this very point and came up with the fact that Rob did have the abs, and yes per Hollywood practices, they were enhanced by air brushing.
I say so what-follow the leader.
Isn't this a fun thing to do around Halloween.
Bren
gwen was here earlier and we got her recipe for chicken ginger stew posted and she was her usual cute self. I now call her Snooks.
In case no one has ever noticed, I am not much for details. I like a broad, sweeping statement to encompass my thoughts, which keeps me interesting or not.
I have surprised myself by commenting on abs tonight. You are all a very bad influence.
So I will punish myself and do penance with a song.
sorry im late got tied down by friends.
What's up night buddies!
Gwen & Bren
Look you two, I am sick of this favoritism.
Talk with Bren who has been looking for you here and know that I don't give a damn about you having other friends, in your country, that like you.
So there, Snookie!
An abs expert-oh my..
Hi Gwen or should I say Snooks?
I am having all kinds of problems posting-keeps saying wrong password.
DK
You dont know i pray that they go so that i can come back to Roseland. I know you'll miss me...
Read this history of a song that I may or may not post:
This song boasts one of the most interesting titles in Country music, and as Howard Bellamy tells it, it originated from a phrase coined by one the 20th century's most enduring comedians.
Says Bellamy, "I have to give credit for that line to Groucho Marx. That's going way back. Of course you've heard of the Marx Brothers.
Groucho used to have a show on TV when we were growing up - which I hate to even admit how long ago that was - but he had a show called You Bet Your Life, and he'd have guests on, and different quiz questions.
And Groucho smoked a cigar - that tells you how long ago it was, he smoked cigars on a TV show. He'd use that line occasionally, he'd say, (secret song lyrics) and shake his cigar and kind of raise his eyebrows.
So we had heard that line growing up, and our family always had a weird southern sense of humor, and they'd use that line around a lot.
So it just came one day that it'd be a great song title."
Will Dreamer/Dk/DJ/FairyGodmother FGM post it next or not?
Place your bets Roselanders....
Bren
So change the password and all is right!
Gwen
Put your friends on here, it would be fun. We can talk various intriguing ways to try and be instantly killed while on vacation. Right?
talk about abs, no biggie for me, i appreciate one though. I much prefer expressive eyes and kissable lips.
Gwen
Ho, hum, about the kissable, cause you are young. Put on the unwanted, staying too late friends.
hey Bren, where do you go?
DK- oh me friends love twilight but they're team Jacob and im team edward and bella. Sad panda, some friends huh! (whisper)Plus they dont know i come here.
They Can't Take That Away From Me
The way you wear your hat
The way you sip your tea
The memory of all that
No, they can't take that away from me
The way your smile just beams
The way you sing off key
The way you haunt my dreams
No, they can't take that away from me
We may never ever meet again,
on that bumpy road to love
Still I'll always,
always keep the memory of.
The way you hold your knife
The way we danced till three
The way you changed my life
No, they can't take that away from me
No, they can't take that away from me
The way your smile just beams
The way you sing off key
The way you haunt my dreams
No they can't take that away from me
We may never ever meet again,
on that bumpy road to love
Still I'll always,
always keep the memory of.
The way you hold your knife
The way we danced till three
The way you changed my life
No, they can't take that away
No, they can't take that away from me
No, they can't take that away from me!

DK
as far as i know they dont do blogs or maybe they just dont want me to know too, hmmm...
You can ask them on my FB, they're cool :-)
This could be the Roselanders secret theme song:
Secret Love
Once I had a secret love
That lived within the heart of me
All too soon my secret love
Became impatient to be free
So I told a friendly star
The way that dreamers often do
Just how wonderful you are
And why I am so in love with you
Now I shout it from the highest hills
Even told the golden daffodils
At last my heart's an open door
And my secret love's no secret anymore.
Doris Day kept secrets too:

I'm with you there Gwen, the eyes are what I notice first....
I'm going to tell you a story --I was standing in line for a concert with my fiance, when I was introduced to my husband. The first thing I noticed about him were his beautiful green eyes
-- funny, huh?
Sorry, there's so much stuff going on here tonight...tell you about it next post---
gwen
This evasion is tiresome. Why would I ask them on FB when you have them right there in your house?
I'll ask them now, here, or never.
It's now or never....
Bren
I love that story about the green-eyed future husband while the fiance thought he was.
Dish it when you can, baby.
Love is a Many Splendored Thing.
Hi DK Yes this is me. Loving your song choice this evening/early morning.
Bren
hmm...green eyed man, but i like blue eyed more(why im seeing Tom?). But the one i loved was a brown one.
theyre long gone DK that's why im here, lol. But you can ask me, i'll be nice :-D
louisa
Glad you are here. There is no reason for you not to shine on and be your lovely amusing self.
Louisa
Syd has apologized for his silliness, a couple of times, and would love to have you back, he really did say that.
First the drama tonight--my husband pulled a giant watermelon out of the garden, and invited our friends next door to have some..well they were here for hours, which is fine because I love them both...but Roseland was waiting...so like 10 min after they left she calls me to see if she left her glasses here, she wants to read and can't find them.
So I start looking everywhere..no dice...then her husband yells I found them..meanwhile my daughter walks in from work and takes my laptop--seems she ordered a new phone and wants to track it....ok that is why I'm away...
The love story--next post.
Thanks DK I too apologize for my silliness. We learn from our mistakes. For me I have ...Bigtime.
I agree Louisa, we miss you..
Gwen, what did you do today?
Bren
Of course, I speak for gwen and myself, since she lies a little about having company but they were long gone....
So far we're buying this fresh watermelon from the garden, neighbors have to eat it too, husband makes no sense, glasses lost, found, laptop stolen, cell phone ordered story.
Waiting for the L-O-V-E part.
so is birdie around?
Louisa
Since you left we have totally adopted the concept of silliness.
We are now called Silliebillies, which you probs know, cause you lurked and waited for our love to pull you in again.
No regrets, hon. Don't make me post that French lyrics, Edith Piaf song about not having regrets cause I will.
Bren asks me about gwen being around?
Louisa asks me about Birdie being around?
Shit and shine-ola, am I invisible or omnipescent?
DK how on earth did you know I "lurked" and I too waited for your love to bring me back.....you must be phsyic ;)
I'm having second thoughts on this, being a public forum--I really don't think I should spill my guts on something so personal-get it?
Bren
I agree, don't do it. Unless there are pictures to post so we can sell it to the magazines.
Seriously, write the story send it to my email, for a private chat.
Not seriously, just the concept of what you wrote in your post is enough to ponder, as we are smart and the rest we can make up to no one's dismay.
Louisa,
There's what 100 posters, and probably 3000 lurkers...I say forgive and forget--and I apologize for sticking my nose where it doesn't fit...
Well I get it....its taken a while But I get it...no need for concern from my end! Just want to thank Birdie for a much earlier thing he/she said. As yes it was and Im happy they remembered. very sweet of them
Bren
nothing exciting for me today.
Ola Louisa!
Havent seen you for awhile
Bren no need to apologise I was just teasin! Thank you for your kindness. I appreciate it imensly. You all have been sadly missed from my end. Hope to regain my place in Roseland. But a more subdude place. one of humour and fun.
Bren
You are very bright and maybe accurate, too. That's why I think you are so special.
Louisa
That's what I enjoy about you, the way you see things with humor.
Others did say they missed you and wished the whole drama had been a comedy instead, which it truly was.
I have a hundo in right here in my hand to bet that others will tell you so, as soon as they see your post. (Hope I win, I'd hate to lose that hundo, again.)
gwen,
Absense makes the heart grow fonder, It was a better option for me at the time to "chill" and take a little break from here. But i'd like to visit now and then just to say HI if that is Ok with you all....then that would be cool with me!
DK
im thinking of doing a little project about my adventures. and im having a hard thinking where to start.
Dreamer,
One thing I will say, when you meet your soul mate you immediately know it---I can relate to Rob and Kristen on this one..He fell in love with her when he saw her in a movie, and she well I'm sure felt the same when he auditioned--didn't matter that she had a boyfriend.
Of course you never want to hurt another person, but you can't escape fate.
Louisa
im cool and ok with it. Everyone is welcome here in Roseland well, execpt to trolls :)
I need to take someone to a mates house.....ya know taximum to the rescue.....i might return , but if I dont.... goodnite Roselanders!
Bren
There is no smooth path to that! But since there is a path, the road less travelled, etc. made all the difference.
I don't usually discuss Rob and Kristen but the fact is, they did both say what you said, in a similar way, exactly about that.
Tonight the word "that" is my fav.
Louisa
Yes, it is a good night. See you.
'That' DK is the fact.
Good night Louisa,
Just remember you're family...
OK Gwen, let me get into your business---what adventures??
nite Louisa
Princess Charmings!
I am taking a few to find just the right song to post. BRB
Bren
oh its just all the things i do and places i've been to, almost all of them had stories, even i were amazed of it,lol
Gwen,
And you're thinking of submitting a manuscript?
no, i'm thinking about blog perhaps. i'm still planning on it
Dedicated to all vampires & actors who play them:
If I Said You Had A Beautiful Body
If I said you had a beautiful body,
Would you hold it against me?
If I swore you were an angel,
Would you treat me like the devil tonight?
If I was dying of thirst,
Would your flowing love come quench me?
If I said you had a beautiful body,
Would you hold it against me?
Now we could talk all night,
About the weather.
Could tell you about my friends,
Out on the coast.
I could ask alot of crazy questions,
Or ask you what I really want to know.
If I said you had a beautiful body,
Would you hold it against me?
If I swore you were an angel,
Would you treat me like the devil tonight?
If I was dying of thirst,
Would your flowing love come quench me?
If I said you had a beautiful body,
Would you hold it against me?
Now rain can fall so soft,
Against the window.
The sun can shine so bright,
Up in the sky.
But daddy always told me,
"Don't make small talk,"
He said, "Come on out and say,
Whats on your mind."
So If I said you had a beautiful body,
Would you hold it against me?
If I swore you were an angel,
Would you treat me like the devil tonight?
If I was dying of thirst,
Would your flowing love come quench me?
If I said you had a beautiful body,
Would you hold it against me?
If I said you had a beautiful body,
Would you hold it against me?
If I swore you were an angel,
Would you treat me like the devil tonight
