 |
| Ignore the man behind the curtain... |
 |
| Just having fun... |
Yes.
I know.
It's a Pap picture.
Let's face it... 90% of the pics out there are Pap pics.
But there are degrees...
At least to me.
1. The Paps are clearly not in their faces...
shouting nasty shit at them.
2. Kristen and Rob both are smiling.
3. This pic suits my purpose.
What do you see when you look at this picture?
Do you see a clingy famewhore...
desperately holding on to their "15 minutes" of celebrity?
Do you see someone who deliberately called the paps?
Do you see a couple who are frantically trying to overcome
the popularity of Hunger Games??
Or
Do you see Robert and Kristen...
Hanging out with friends
Having a smoke and a few laughs?
 |
| Keep digging... |
See.
Some people would have you believe that
Rob and Kristen
going out with friends...
whether it be to a concert
out to dinner
or someones video shoot...
is flaunting their relationship in our faces...
that these 'private' people are anything but.
But lets take a look at what private means... OK?
 |
| Rob belongs to Kristen... publicly and privately. |
1. belonging to some particular person: private property.
(Kinda like how Rob belongs to Kristen and vice-versa)
2. pertaining to or affecting a particular person or a small group of persons;
individual; personal: for your private satisfaction.
(Kinda how their personal lives... shouldn't affect yours)
3. confined to or intended only for the persons immediately concerned;
confidential: a private meeting.
(To whom it may concern... Not you)
4. personal and not publicly expressed:
(Personal. Private. Not Public)
 |
| Yes. This is the way he always looks at her. |
People often screech that Rob and Kristen
don't REALLY want to keep their lives PRIVATE
because they keep showing up together...
doing stuff together.
But what is privacy?
Do you expect them to just hide away
in a basement somewhere
(where a lot of the screechers live)
and never go out...
Never do anything?
Private is not talking about their relationship.
Private is not flaunting it.
(Case in point... Nikki Reed)
 |
| What would you sell out your wedding pics for? |
People are confused.
Or stupid.
Or both.
Probably both.
Unfortunately.
Rob and Kristen have both stated that they
will not discuss their relationship.
They don't.
They don't stop and smile for the cameras
while on their PRIVATE time.
But that doesn't mean they will never go anywhere
or do anything together.
They will still live their lives.
They will.
They do.
And guess what?
They do it...
are you ready for this?
TOGETHER.
 |
| TOGETHER??? |
Get fucking USED to it already.
 |
| He will be her man. |
Couple of thoughts.
1. All this bullshit talk about Rob ruining his career.
Based on... what exactly?
Do you know what he is doing?
Who he is talking to?
Maybe he's working on his music.
Maybe he's taking his time deciding
what to do next.
Maybe...
Just maybe...
He has earned the right to take his time
and do what he wants.
2. Want to hear something REALLY funny?
Ninnies actually believe...
I mean. Seriously.
That not only do Rob and Kristen read their toxic waste
But that when Ninnies suggest something...
Rob and Kristen DO it!
Wait...
Really.
So Kristen wearing Rob's hat the other night?
Or hanging out with Kristen's friends?
We can thank the Ninnies for that!
Oh My.
And you know...
I don't doubt that someone somewhere
is out there keeping tabs on what fucked up Ninnie bullshit
is out there.
It's good to know your enemies... isn't it?
And that's what it comes down to
Ninnemies?
Ninemies?
Make no mistake about it...
Rob despises them.
He's made that clear.
Any good decent man would.
Who would EVER for one moment
side with vicious, hateful, lying harpies
whose only purpose is trashing and hurting
someone you love?
Exactly.
3. I'm going to see HUNGER GAMES today with
some girlfriends.
It wasn't my idea... but I'm looking forward to it.
I've read the first two books now...
and almost done with the third.
They are good books.
But they did NOT affect me like Twilight.
Not even close.
And I admire the Katniss character...
she is strong and brave.
And guess what?
I like Jennifer Lawrence too!
But I don't get the lame competition.
Totally different stories.
Totally different actors.
Just totally different.
Just because its a 'Young Teen' trilogy
and it stars a young beautiful girl?
And honestly...
Why must people trash Twilight to like Hunger Games?
You can like both...
Or you don't have to like any of them.
It's not a prerequisite to hate Bella to like Katniss.
People are lame.
It's just another rather obvious excuse
to hate on Kristen.
And Twilight.
Personally?
I'm glad Hunger Games is doing so well.
But if people think it impacts
Rob and Kristen in any way?
They will be disappointed.
To each their own.
I say go forth and prosper.
And may the odds be ever in your favor.
 |
| This is who Robert fell in love with... |
4. Rob and Kristen are only going out to be seen
because Hunger Games is doing SO well at the box office!
Wait..
Isn't the BD2 teaser trailer in front of Hunger Games?
Aren't they from the SAME company now?
Is having some grainy pap pics of Rob and Kristen
standing around with friends...
REALLY considered promo nowadays?
In what universe?
Yeah.
OK.
Right.
 |
| Laughing AT you... Not with you. |
5. I don't even have the energy for a 5.
Laughing takes a lot out of you... you know?
I do know that the only 'clingers'
in this scenario
are the people desperately clinging to
Exit Strategy
Damage Control
and
PR.
They can see the writing on the wall
 |
| Robert loves Kristen loves Robert |
They just refuse to read it.
6. Tom Sturridge.
Of course.
I always talk about him.
 |
| I miss Shaggy and Scrappy... a lot. |
I adore Thomas Sturridge.
I can't help it.
It's just one of those things.
Those things I do.
So in closing...
This post is brought to you by one of my
all time favorite movie quotes.
"Everything seems like nothing to me now,
'cause I want you in my bed.
I don't care if I burn in hell. I don't care if you burn in hell.
The past and the future is a joke to me now.
I see that they're nothing.
I see they ain't here.
The only thing that's here is you - and me."
It's from Moonstruck.
The only thing that's here...
is you-- and me.
Until next time.
Bye for now

Lovely ROSE... Enjoy the movie! I am still in the middle of the first book. I will go see the movie when finished. Hope eveyome has a good Wednesday:)
Oops...everyone !!!
Rose,
I love and miss your Shaggy and Scrappy. I am so happy that they taking this time to just be and have normal lives. They have so earned it. I'll never understand the need to hate and try to drag someone down. I don't understand how these women think that this young couple's lives are their personnal property to dissect and that it has anything to do with them. Very twisted.
A HUGE congratulations to Rob, Kristen and Tom! It looks like they are bound for Cannes. So proud of them and their dedication to their craft.
Hello to all you fabulous Roselanders!
DK,
Get packing!Haha!
Oops...they"are"taking
Happy Hump Day! Hope everyone is having a great week so far.
I'm always happy to see pics of them as long as they aren't being harassed. Looks like they were having a fun time with friends.
I get tired of overexposed celebs so I'm glad they are a private couple. Happy that they are getting this time to live quietly without the hoopla surrounding them. Goodness knows it's going to be crazy and busy with movie promo's and such.
I read the interview Sienna gave that accompanied her magazine cover. It was an interesting read. After reading it, I think there's more to her than how the media has portrayed her.
Angelica- Hope you had a fantastic birthday!
Hello to all the rest of the regs!
Ya just had to swing for the bleachers again, didn't ya? I think the label you're shooting for is anemones. Think about the characteristics. Predatory, soft, bloated, stinging tentacles, mostly stomach, and no brain? (chuckles)
As for THG, I honestly don't care for it, and I only care *about* it insofar as people use it to whale on something I do care about. The Saga. Bring the invidious comparisons and I get defensive.
All that being said...(shakes head) is there anyone here stupid enough to believe that BD2 is the Titanic to THG's iceberg? Or that BD2 won't kill at the box office, even if Rob and Kristen elect to stay home?
And then there's the obvious fact that anything that THG or Ms. Lawrence can do to pull some of the spotlight off of R&K is a good thing for our heroes. They've got youth, beauty, soaring careers, and half as much money as the IRS...and they've both earned every last drop of it in blood, sweat, an tears. All they've been lacking is genuine privacy.
So whether I actually LIKE THG is irrelevant. As I see it, it's a good thing for R&K.
That's all I need to know about it.
You did good again, Rose.
Rick
I'm currently trying to read Cosmopolis and I'm not finding it easy reading, did anyone else find this or is it just me?
We are having glorious weather here at the moment and I've been doing a bit of spring cleaning and sitting in the garden sunning myself, bliss!!!
I will eventually see THG but I would like to read the books first so it will be a while.
Have a good day Roselanders xxx
hi to everyone that's posted so far and those yet to post :0)
Loved the post Rose! Hope you enjoy THG...I saw it this weekend and really thought it was good. Of course I also liked the books! And again this movie/series is so totaly different than twilight! Twilight is just a special love stoy. The Hunger Games not so much, but still good! So happy for Rob and Kristen...looks like we will see them in Cannes! I love/hate the pap pics, as you said the ones from a distance I can take a little better. Hope everyone in Roseland is having a good week!
@ali mac...I have tried to read Cosmopolis and did not get very far...gonna just see the movie!
Hi Rose, Super, Birdie, Melinda, TwiHusband (bravo!), Ali, Berry and all the rest!
I thought THG movie was a good re-telling of the book but it didn't really give me the feelings that I had when I read the book. (if that makes sense) Other friends loved it but I just felt kind of blah. Maybe I was just in a mood that day.:D
I'm glad that Rob and Kristen continue to live as honestly and normally as they possibly can, in spite of the spotlight. The few remaining clingers will just have to get used to being wrong.
Have a great Wednesday!
I was just wondering if someone on top is keeping tabs on the nonstens. won;t be surprised if they do after what happened at the UK premiere.
Hola, Dottie!
Just an offhand comment. Bella's Lullaby started playing on Rose's playlist and I went to answer my cell phone. That's my ringtone for my wife. (grins)
Rick
Hey everyone!
I saw the hunger games, I liked it but its not something I'll do repeat viewings of at the theatre. I'll buy the dvd when it comes out and watch it everyone once in awhile.
Pap pix are unavoidable at times and Rob & Kristen seemed to be having a good time in the latest pix, all happy and smiley and hanging with friends. The whole pr angle is so absurd, some people need new brains lol
Hope u are all doing well and having a good day!
Another great post, Rose. I saw HG yesterday and thought it was great. It was beautifully cast, beautifully acted, and hit all the right notes. I also loved the books.
I'm a writer and editor, and I've read literally thousands of books in my life. But like you, I've never read anything, including HG, that affected me like the Twilight series. I loved the concept, I loved Edward most of all, and I wanted to be adopted into the Cullen family!
The ridiculous pitting of Twilight against HG, the constant snarky remarks about how poorly the Twilight saga was written in comparison to HG. . .. How irritating! Twilight carried me along (through five readings) on pure feeling. It still does.
I knew I was forgetting something!
Loved the quote from "Moonstruck!" One of my all time favorite movies. I may have to dig it out and watch it again later. :)
TwiHusband - Very sweet!
Hey Groovie!
Later!
Thank you for the great post, Rose!
Angelica...when was your birthday??? Hope you had a fun celebration!
Hi Everyone!
Hi Everyone!
It's always good to see the two of them getting the chance to do normal things and just have fun,while managing to(mostly)be left in peace to live their lives.
As for the delusional freaks....well I'd be lying if I said I didn't find it greatly amusing to sit back and watch them chasing their collective tails,while the universe bitchslaps them on a daily basis.
Melind - Thank you, yes I did :)
Hi Hope - It was on Monday, cream cakes,wine and roses were involved, I was happy :)
Hi Rose,
Rob and Kristen
"TOGETHER.
Get fucking USED to it already"
And move on, Ninnies.
Looking at those pics from the other day of Rob and Kristen, definitlely looked like two happy people having fun with their friends.
Rob and Kristen are happy and that make me happy!
Cannes is looking more and more like a YES!! May is going to be great...so much good things to look foward!
Hope you are all having a wonderful day. Take care.
Thanks for the great post Rose!
angelica - Happy belated Birthday! <3
TwiHusband - really liked your comment!
Have a great day/evening everyone :)
Thanks Berry I don't feel so bad now!!
Happy Belated Birthday ANGELICA x
Angelica, Happy belated Birthday! I hope you had losts of fun celebrating your Birthday.
Take care
Happy Hump Day!
@Rose
Moonstruck left me thunderstruck.
You've reminded me, how that movie
was also one of the most romantic
I'd ever seen.
Twilight to me, is the same. Scorching lovers, speaking of passion, create lasting impressions.
Thanks, and may you and your buds enjoy THG, too.
@Birdie
Hahahaha! You are so right. Today, I'm cracking the whip. Ouch.
@angelica1
So glad you had a lovely birthday on Monday. I'll toast you tonight!
@TwiHusband
Good to have you join us here.
@alimac
I found the book Cosmopolis very complicated, too. The movie will clarify the plot, imo, and be terrific. These links helped me:

Hi Rose & Roseland!!
An AMAZING post today. You are always so "right on" and say exactly what I'm thinking.
God Bless You and also Rob & Kristen!!
To those of you having a hard time reading Cosmopolis, you might want to try the audiobook. It's wonderfully done by a professional actor and really gets you into it.
FRIENDS: Has anyone ever wondered about the kind of "real" friends that Rob & Kristen have? I mean, so many of them could be making a little extra money just by giving out "tidbits" of their personal lives; yet, we rarely ever hear anything about their personal time. I think it's wonderful that they have so many trustworthy friends and family.
Leni,ali mac,katy,DK - Thank you :)
DK thanks so much for the links, they are great!
Great post Rose, as usual. When I see a post from you, it makes my day brighter.
I have never understood why people want to compare Twilight and THG. I haven't seen THG yet, but plan to, but I have read the first book. The two are nothing alike. The same goes for the actors. Leave it alone, please people.
It is so good to see Rob and Kristen out having fun, living their life.
Take care Roselanders. Enjoy your week.
Rose – great quote.
Hi to all the regulars and some welcome newcomers. I hope you are all well.
It’s so nice to see Rob and Kristen enjoying some nights out – and getting relative peace to do so. I agree Rose, I’m glad Rob is getting some time to do whatever he wants – whether it’s planning for his next project, working on his music or just plain sitting with his feet up. He’s earned it.
Angelica – happy belated birthday. It sounds like it had all the perfect ingredients. I hope you had a good time.
Have a good rest of the week folks. Take care.
So I saw Hunger Games with the hubbs today, it was ok. Your right Rose, not like Twilight lol. My favorite hater activity is when they try to act like they know R and K. It's endlessly entertaining. I also like how they call anyone who disagrees with them a sheep...but wait...aren't they all sheep if thy all think alike? bwaaahahaha, Thanks so much Rose, you make my day when you update!
I'm toasting Groovie and angelica1, my good Roseland buddies/birthday gals!
This Spanish champagne is said to rival France's Cristal. How would I know?
Plus since Birdie got on my case about not slacking at packing, I am mostly in the big closet not doing that. Oh, what gorgeous treasures I have found that were forgotten. Thrilling, just like Christmas!
I believe I can fly..and you all know why.
XOXO
@TWIHUSBAND
That is the most adorable thing I've ever heard.
Well I had one of the best days ever today and I hope everyone else did too!
P.s. why does the Blogger format keep changing??
No me gusta!
DK,
You go girl!
Happy Belated, Angelica!
Hi everyone
I hope you all are well and happy. I'm Always so touched by Rose's blog. I suppose many of you are also or you would not read it. I just find her extraordinary- she should write more than a blog.
I m not sure if most of you will remember me but I was thinking and it had been too long so here I am. Take care
Syd, are you kidding about "remembering" you? That's half of why we're here!!! Hope all is well in your life, full of upcoming excitement and great things! And of course Rose should branch out and share her mad crazy writing skills with the rest of the world... We've been a selfish bunch hiding her here for our own entertainment...
Take care, Syd :) Lots of love sent your way from Roseland...
You Go To My Head
Michael Feinstein:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SBkmco5UvDM&feature=relmfu
You go to my head
And you linger
Like a haunting refrain
And I find you spinning
'round in my brain
Like the bubbles
In a glass of champagne
You go to my head like a sip
Of sparkling Burgundy brew
And I find the very mention of you
Like the kicker in a julep or two
The thrill of the thought that you
Might give a thought to my plea
Casts a spell over me
Still I say to myself
Get a hold of yourself
Can't you see
That it never can be
You go to my head with a smile
That makes my temperature rise
Like a summer with a thousand Julys
You intoxicate my soul with your eyes
Though I'm certain
That this heart of mine
Hasn't a ghost of a chance
In this crazy romance
You go to my head
Thank you/treeborps
Rose, your posts never disappoint! Agree about the Twi & THG comparisons- nothing sucked me in like the story of Bella & Edward, although I found THG entertaining.
Hugs to my Roseland friends, birthday wishes to all you March babies, and a special wish to our FGM: may your move be in your favor and may you find continued happiness in your new abode!
@Syd
It has been too long, but not so long that you aren't remembered. Why, really that last song I posted was for you, without saying so.
Rose would agree for you two got that thing, that certain thing..
You're greatly missed.
And, I'm moving again, within the same building. It's in my gypsy soul, you know.
@Kenzz
Sweets, you got that right! You are doing good?
My fab FGM : we're all well here, and how nice of you to ask! Son out of hospital and back on track, I endured a ct scan today which was uneventful except for the vampire bite like bruise on the arm where the IV went in (couldn't resist the cheesy analogy), and daughter spent the afternoon getting xrayed, only to end up with a wrist brace. Seriously, no wonder health care is so pricey!
How's the move, my friend? Is it difficult after so recent a change, or easier because you're now "experienced"?!
@Kenzz
Vampire bite like bruise, eh? Fits right in with our fascination.
It is a difficult move since there are my eBay treasures since 2005 that must be dispatched. I am very experienced after 40+ moves in my lifetime!
Glad you all are not seriously challenged.
DK , your riddles never fail to both intoxicate and perplex me... Thanks for being so true to you
Have a lovely night, I intend to till my hubs returns from his week-long sales mtg
@Kenzz
You continue to fascinate, too, as I do not know what riddles intoxicate and perplex, but I say, what the heck, it's living large, darlin' girl!
Ain't we got fun?
Fun in spades!
Kenzz & Me
Ain't We Got Fun
Van & Schenck (1921):
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y041-eT6QrI
Bill collectors gather
'Round and rather
Haunt the cottage next door
Men the grocer and butcher sent
Men who call for the rent
But within a happy chappy
And his bride of only a year
Seem to be so cheerful
Here's an earful
Of the chatter you hear
"Every morning,
Every evening,
Ain't we got fun?
Not much money,
Oh, but honey,
Ain't we got fun?
The rent's unpaid dear,
We haven't a bus.
But smiles were made, dear,
For people like us.
In the winter, in the summer,
Don't we have fun?
Times are bum and getting bummer
Still we have fun.
There's nothing surer,
The rich get richer
And the poor get children.
In the meantime,
In between time,
Ain't we got fun!"
Just to make their trouble nearly double
Something happened last night
To their chimney a gray bird came
Mister Stork is his name
And I'll bet two pins
A pair of twins
Just happen'd in with the bird
Still they're very gay and merry
Just at dawning I heard,
"Every morning,
Every evening,
Don't we have fun?
Twins and cares dear come in pairs, dear,
Don't we have fun?
We've only started
As mommer and pop.
Are we downhearted?
I'll say that we're not!
Landlord's mad and getting madder.
Ain't we got fun?
Times are so bad and getting badder,
Still we have fun.
There's nothing surer,
The rich get richer and the poor get laid off!
In the meantime,
In between time,
Ain't we got fun!
Thank you/RReady555
Pulling the sheets up, but had to say thanks for the song!
@Kenzz
I admire you, and the pulling up of your sheets! Very much!
It Only Takes A Moment
John Barrowman:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SuvalwhclOg
It only takes a moment
For your eyes to meet and then
Your heart knows in a moment
You will never be
Alone again
I held her for an instant
But my arms felt sure and strong
It only takes a moment
To be loved a whole life long
I've heard it said
That love must grow
That to be sure
You must be slow
I saw her smile
And now I know
I'll listen to just my heart
That smile made me
Trust my heart
For I held her
For an instant
But my arms felt sure and strong
It only takes a moment
To be loved a whole life long
And that is all
That's love's about
Then we'll recall
When time runs out
That it only took
A moment
To be loved
A whole life long
Thank you/HereComeTheDrums2
I'm hoping to see Hunger Games this weekend, not much free time lately! But I do make time to come here! :) I think people are desperate, some are stupid, and some just thrive on drama. That's the best I can figure, when people create the drama, make stuff up, its just to keep themselves engaged, in the mix.
Love seeing smiles on their faces, having fun. And I love the way he looks at her, I could look at that all day!
Good night, Roseland!
Kenzz and DK
Thanks for the song and sweet words. I fell asleep or would have come back sooner.
Another night we can talk more I hope. Take care!
Freddie And Birdie - Thank you for the birthday wishes.
Syd - As if we could forget you :)
One day closer to the week end!
Syd, It's great to see you! Hope all is well.
Just popping in quickly to wish everyone a good day.
Syd - you're definitely not forgotten. It's always nice to see you pop in. I hope all is well with you and yours.
Kenzz - nice to see you. We've missed you. I'm glad that your son is doing well. You need to stop supporting the US healthcare system though, with all those doctors and hospital visits. Take care.
Have a good day all.
Waves Syd, nice to see you stopped by here. Hope all is well with you.
Have a wonderful day everyone. Take care.
Some of you are up early! Hello back although I think Angelica is in the UK so not early for her either right?
I wish Rose would hoist herself out of bed before noon today and say hello. I know Nana Rose needs her beauty sleep but seriously, that much rest isn't good for anyone right?
She probably is still dreaming about the boys from the Hunger Games. She told me the little short one is really her type. WAIT--she should change this blog to a blog about him! Think of all the fresh ideas and pictures.
So do you all still play your games at night about choosing which poor soul you want to kill?
Well, I'll just keep hitting refresh until Rose decides to come and visit. Its how I spend all of my days. Waiting for her to grace me with her beauty, intelligence, and typing/spelling abilities. She blames her ipad but between us, I think she really has a problem spelling words such as "tree" and "book." Don't mention it to her and I doubt she reads the comments I leave anyway so....
:)
HAHA--I forgot my picture was of that officer and looked down the comments and thought "what asshole has that picture for themselves?" HAHAHA-ME!
I need to change that quickly.
Of course.....
...it would probably....
...make Rose annoyed....
...if I wrote comments...
...like this....
because I think....
....she gets a text or email...
....every time...
someone...
....comments...
...SO-....
...if anyone wants to join me ....
...in trying to awaken Sleeping Beauty....
....I would truly....
....TRULY...
...be grateful...
Did you ever really really REALLY want to talk with someone but they lived in the middle of the wrong country and didn't start their day until about mid-afternoon?
Did it annoy you? It annoys me. Can you tell?
I suppose it wouldn't be that bad except when you are expected to stay awake until FOUR IN THE MORNING waiting for SOMEONE to return from the movies and "a bite to eat."
Doesn't that phrase "a bite to eat" imply it will be a quick thing? Maybe grab a sandwich or something nearby and then return? Does anyone else think that "a bite to eat" would imply a 7 course meal that takes HOURS to finish? Am I right or am I right?
I can just do this until she shows up. Its not like any of you who might read this think I am sane anyway right? So this is just confirming for you that I am in fact mental, especially where Rose is concerned. (Cue that old "Crazy for You" song DK)
You know Rose is very sweet and spends alot of time discussing all the things she likes about Kristen and what's his face. Don't you think we should discuss what we like best about Rose? I'm sure she would LOVE that type of attention.
I love Rose because she is a good writer....even if she is declaring her love and devotion to some idiot...she does it with such style and passion that you can't help but enjoy reading it.
I love Rose because...
she seems to have a special supplier for those cute little smile people graphics.
I love Rose because...
She has great taste in clothing and wears it all so beautifully. cough orange shirt cough
Ohhhhh I have to go do a pesky thing called work. More later.
I have read what the "some people" have written and all I can say is they are "ASSCLOWNS"!! Thats all! Who gives a flying Fu@# what these idiots think or say!!
;)
Love you Rose!!! :)
rose rose wake up rose
hurry hurry wake up
Ok I did it. Now stop fucking calling us-its too early for this shit.
Syd... adorable as always.
And no, I didn't mind getting a zillion emails with ONE WORD on them.
Why would I mind that?
Too CUTE... Syd... TOO CUTE!
Ha!
;)
Awww Toots I'm so glad you enjoyed them. Rest assured if the rules are ignored again, I will be sure to send many more that way.
OK Cutie Patootie!
I will try to keep that in mind.
I love The Hunger Games, Harry Potter and Game of Thrones. Why does everything have to be a competition?
So annoying.
Rob and Kristen are one of Hollywood's most private couples. It's insane to call them famewhores.
Speaking of 'Moonstruck' my favorite quote is when the grandfather starts to cry at the end of the movie and says "I'm so confused'
And that is how I feel reading about all this bull crap being spewed by these so called ninnies.
Thanks Rose for deciphering what really is the good, the bad and the very ugly in this so called fandom.
No wonder Rob and Kris can't stand them...they lower one's IQ trying to see logic in what they're saying but you just can't cure stupid.
(Btw the mention of Ikki always brings a sour taste in my mouth. Please put some kind of warning before, my stomach thanks you ☺)
Oh and before I forget, great post once again Ms Rose.
As for 'Hunger games' maybe it's my age group or the subject matter but like you mentioned, you can't compare the two...there is absolutely NOTHING in common so why do that?
My nephews liked them better than the Twi Saga. Would it be safe to say that Twi attracts more the female population than the other?
After you see the movie, can you let us know? Not really interested in seeing them until they come out on BluRay.
Saw this re-tweeted in my twitter timeline so I'd thought I'd share...
Not sure what to say after reading it...

Angelica- Your birthday sounds like a win! Glad you enjoyed it.
Syd/Smitty- Nice to see you pop in. Hope all is well for the both of you.
Thank God another work day is over. Have a wonderful rest of the week...
I see we had a blast from the past. Hope all is right in your worlds,Smitty and Syd!
Hope all you ladies and gents had a great day.
It's fun to play in Rose's place and always so nice when old regs return bringing their lightheartedness. Thanks Rose, Smitty, and Syd!
So excited for May, June, oh, for everything (Cannes)!
Back later.
For Birdie
Wear Your Love Like Heaven
Donovan:

Colour in sky prussian blue
Scarlet fleece changes hue
Crimson ball sinks from view
Wear your love like heaven
(Wear your love like)
Wear your love like heaven
Wear your love like heaven
Lord, kiss me once more
Fill me with song
Allah, kiss me once more
That I may, that I may
Wear my love like heaven
Wear my love like heaven
La, la, la-la-la, la-la-la, la-la-la
Colour sky havana lake
Colour sky rose carmethene
Alizarian crimson
Can I believe what I see
All I have wished for will be
All our race proud and free
Wear your love like heaven
(Wear your love like)
Wear my love
Like heaven
Thank you/TheBacmaster

Crazy For You
Madonna:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KOyxeUtm8sA
Swaying room as the music starts
Strangers making the most of the dark
Two by two their bodies become one
I see you through the smokey air
Can't you feel the weight of my stare
You're so close but still a world away
What I'm dying to say, is that
I'm crazy for you
Touch me once and you'll know it's true
I never wanted anyone like this
It's all brand new
You'll feel it in my kiss
I'm crazy for you
Trying hard to control my heart
I walk over to where you are
Eye to eye we need no words at all
Slowly now we begin to move
Every breath I'm deeper into you
Soon we two are standing still in time
If you read my mind, you'll see
I'm crazy for you
Touch me once
And you'll know it's true
I never wanted anyone like this
It's all brand new
You'll feel it in my kiss
Because I'm crazy for you
Thank you/The80sJukebox
So distracted working in my drive-in closet (as the brochure calls it) that my mind is a blank, i.e. no musical inspiration tonight.
Wandering away for now, while keeping an eye out for lurkers, lingerers, and lovers of any kind.
Welcome to Friday!
DK,
Drive-in closet? I am jealous. Thank you for the song. I had forgotten about Donovan. I always loved "Crazy For You". Syd, forever the romantic.
It's Friday! WooHoo!
@Birdie
Don't be jealous even though one can put a full size bed in that closet. Who could sleep in one?
Mostly, there were about 100 unpacked boxes in there, hiding from sight. But I've got 'em good and down to maybe 30.
There is no such closet in the new apt. for I believe they did make a bedroom in the space instead. Clever of them, and I'd better be even more clever in what I take with me.
I thought you were thinning out your treasures with the last move. Haha! Hard to let go. I tell myself that the kids may want it someday. Man, I hope they do!
Kristen is confirmed to be at the Kids Choice Awards, and Taylor's going to be there, too. Not sure about Rob though.
Sat. 3/31 at 8pm EST.
Now that news is exciting!
@Birdie
Ha, ha. I did thin them out last time until my energy and patience got too thin to continue the thinning out.
Besides, my excuse is having done an eBay business for 3 years, and this is the fallout!
Truly, my kids tell me often how much they DON'T want any of it.
Letting go of my family Xmas decorations is the hardest and I still have 4 bins of them. In due time, when I'm ready for the doing, they'll be done and making someone else happy I hope.
Can you imagine me sitting in that closet looking at family photo albums for an hour? I did.
Change is a challenge.
@Birdie
You're probs out on pet patrol. Have a great day and weekend. I sent you an email earlier.
:)
I can imagine the photo albums. Such fun and the perfect way to procrastinate. Thanks for the email. I am running late for work-procrastinating. I will send a reply later. Have a good sleep!
I hope you all have a wonderful, relaxing, fun, and amazing weekend!
Take care out there everyone!! :D
<333
Dear Rose and Roseland,
Have a beautiful Friday.
Thank you dear DK for the lovely Donovan song. Listened to it twice this morning with my cuppa. His music brings back such wonderful years and memories.
Out the door and off to school, will peek in this evening.
Hugs for y'all.
Hugs for Smitty, Gruff and Syd.
Always wishing you three the very best.
Life is good.
Hi Roselanders,
I know I'm not a reg, and never know if I should post, but DreamerKind always draws me in with her song choices. Teaching Gatsby right now, so you're choosing music close to my heart.
Life seems good right now for lovely folks, despite the existance of some goofballs. (shaking head)
And how nice to see your Syd here. It's been a while. What a funny character!
DK - thanks for the beautiful music!
Finally got my BD DVD so I'm going to watch it now :)
Have a great day/evening everybody :)
Good evening everyone!
@Olivia
I agree about that Donovan song-so beautifully mellow each time it's heard. Timeless.
@Litmom
Seems to me you're a regular now and I'd consider you a Roselander, too. Have a great spring break!
@Leni
Thanks for enjoying the music. May your weekend be sunny.
Time for my closet playtime. Bye for now.
Mwah! Kisses in the air, in the night, and goodnight!
Good Morning ROSELAND
It has been a busy week but I wanted to take a moment to say HI...(waves)!!! I was just minding my own business and then on Tuesday...BAM...the pollen decided to do battle with me in the worst way...I can hardly talk ( I know...such a shame...hahaha ) and nothing else is much fun either...unfortunately, activities still need to move on and so I have been pushing myself along and will today also( baby is having a birthday party at my house TODAY):)
I also bought a new car yesterday and I am beside myself with excitement...if you will recall I have wrecked my car ....( I am challenged when backing out of the garage...sometimes.. Well it's really dark when I leave the house early in the morning and my son and hubs have been known to place obstacles in my way that SHOULDN'T BE THERE... Lol) and of course THE DEER was the last straw for me...even hubs couldn't argue ...the car is cursed!!!! So now that I have the new car, I am TERRIFIED to drive it...luckily...for the car...it has 4 FREAKIN CAMERAS so I can see and a sensor that alarms if you are fixin to run over something...I hope it will help:).
SYDSYDSYDSYDSYDSYDSYDSYDSYDSYDSYDSYD.....I am sorry I missed YOU...(HUGS)
SMITTY...Come back when you can't STAY SO LONG!!!!( shhhh...reverse psychology)...:)
Have a LOVELEY WEEKEND EVERYBODY!!
Hi all,
I'm just popping in quickly to wish you all a good weekend.
Super Gigi - have a wonderful celebration with your grandson. I hope you get your voice back so you can sing him happy birthday. Congratulations on the new car. It sounds wonderful. Go forth and conquer (in a non-collision kind of way). LOL.
Have a good one everyone. Take care.
Good morning dear Rose and Roseland,
Super,
Hope the little one's birthday party is wonderful. Take lots of pics. May those allergies clear up enough for you to enjoy the busy day.
Hooray for the new car. Enjoy!
Belated birthday wishes to Groovie and Angelica.
(Cream cakes, wine and roses are all good!)
Kenzz, good to see you stop by. Glad your sweet son is back on track. Hope all is well with you and also with your daughter.
Welcome Litmom! Enjoy that Spring Break!
Both HG and MM, for me, were one viewing movies.
HG 7 .5 / 10
( Stanley T. did an excellent job, really liked the two dresses "on fire". Shakey camera really annoying. Ending does not leave you wanting more. What is up with the pin? Wrong. How will they handle the pin in the next movies?)
MM 5 /10
(Lily is a beautiful girl. A young Audrey Hepburn in looks. Dwarves and Nathan L did a good job. Julia miscast. Her beauty treatment grossed me out. Poor A.H., shirtless (the token chest) and embarrassing segments. Thankfully SW Bolly # only appears in the final credits. Didn't like the stylized cartoonish beginning but really liked the very cute and not at all scary looking dragon monster.) Best thing about MM - (so sorry), the trailer for the Johnny Depp movie, Dark Shadow. It looks awesome. Lots of chatter in the audience about it.
Have a lovely Saturday.
Off to an area downtown art fair and then maybe Salmon Fishing in the Yemen if there is time left after a late lunch.
Hugs for y'all, Smitty, Gruff and Syd.
Life is good.
Shadows (forgot the s )
Hello everyone!
Happy Birthday to Super Gigi's grandboy! It doesn't seem so long ago that we were congratulating you on his birth. Hope you get your voice back soon. Enjoy the new car.
Olivia, Thanks for the movie reviews. :)
Waves and big hugs to all the regs!
I'm off to continue working in the flower beds. Happy weekend!
Wow, I totally missed Smitty's drive-by. I must be blind.
My other home is off-line (again...). Is that how you knew I was on SB???
I obviously need to give Joe Flynn a listen - I love expanding my interests! So many talented people out there that need a fanbase!
Off to to check out THG with my guy. Hmmmm. No desire to see MM.
Hi Everyone
Super - Happy New Car! I hope your grandson has a wonderful birthday :)
DK - I could do with that closet of yours!!!
Super, Happy Birthday to your grandson! I hope he has a wonderful birthday party.
Congrats on the new car. Enjoy!
Take care everyone.
What a lovely day after...hope everyone is well and chipper!
@Super
Very exciting about grandbaby's first bday! Hope your voice comes back, you feel tip top!
A new car needs to be backed into and pulled forward out of the garage, as I learned to do being challenged, too. Beyond wonderful!
@angelica1
Yikes, the new place has few closets so I'm in a panic. (For the short while I had one, the drive-in was glorious!) Actually, I have two but the second is much smaller, lol.
@Litmom
Gatsby gets everyone gaga, and I had a huge crush on Fitzgerald the man & writer.
"Cut out all these exclamation points. An exclamation point is like laughing at your own joke."
F. Scott Fitzgerald
Alas, I use !!!! like crazy and it is in the spirit of fun-just like darlin' *IBelieve*!
@Olivia
Sweetness and light from you as usual along with a cracking pov on the movies. Mwah.
Thinking of Sat. night kissing songs, got any in mind? Unless I get to actually kissing tonight, and then it's Sunday kisses.
Be back later, maybe a Mega Millionaire (after I check my lottery tics).
Love how during an interview quite a while back Rob wished for date nights. How very lovely that he and Kristen now get to enjoy them a bit more easily.
Congratulations to Kristen!
So happy for her. She looked stunning at the KCA in the Stella blue lace with matching shoes.
Yeah for Taylor! Good to hear that he also won.
DK, two songs for you to spin:
The Crystals - Then He Kissed Me (1963)
Hall & Oates _ Because Your Kiss is on my List ( 1980)
(By the way, Salmon Fishing in the Yemen is an absolutely wonderful movie. Very highly recommend it. I thoroughly enjoyed it. Kristen Scott Thomas, Ewan McGregor, Emily Blount, and Amr Waked all give marvelous performances in this very well done film.)
Have a good evening. Off to read, am tackling 1Q84.
Hugs for y'all.
Then He Kissed Me
The Crystals:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cE_jOD2Fxvs\
Well he walked up to me
And he asked me if I wanted to dance
He looked kinda nice
And so I said I might take a chance
When he danced he held me tight
And when he walked me home that night
All the stars were shining bright
And then he kissed me
Each time I saw him
I couldn't wait to see him again
I wanted to let him know
That he was more than a friend
I didn't know just what to do
So I whispered I love you
And he said that he loved me too
And then he kissed me
He kissed me in a way
That I've never been kissed before
He kissed me in a way
That I wanna be kissed forever more
I knew that he was mine
So I gave him all the love that I had
And one day he took me home
To meet his mom and his dad
Then he asked me to be his bride
And always be right by his side
I felt so happy I almost cried
And then he kissed me
Thank you/gthalfblood
Kiss On My List
Hall & Oates:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AYUdldNzLNA
My friends wonder
Why I call you all the time
What can I say?
I don't feel the need
To give such secrets away
You think maybe I need help
Though I know I am right
I'm just better off
Not listening to friends advice
When they insist on knowing my bliss
I tell them this
When they want to know
What the reason is
I only smile when I lie
Then I tell them why
Because your kiss
Your kiss is on my list
Because your kiss is on my list
Of the best things in life
Because your kiss
Your kiss is on my list
Your kiss I can't resist
Because your kiss it's what I miss
When I turn out the lights
I go crazy wondering
What there is to really see
Did the night just take up your time
Cause it means more to me
Sometimes I forget what I'm doing
I don't forget what I want
Regret what I've done, regret you?
I couldn't go on
Because your kiss
Your kiss is on my list
Because your kiss
Your kiss I cant resist
Because your kiss is what I miss
When I turn out the lights
Thank you/watashi81
Sigh...no mega millionaire am I. One of the 3 winners of $233 million EACH was from Illinois, just not me (I almost won $10 and then didn't). It's all in fun.
Other winners-Kids Choice Awards:
Kristen as Favorite Movie Actress for BD1!
Taylor for Favorite Buttkicker!
What You Said
Been Listening
Johnny Flynn & Sussex Wit:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-t-5HUH1kss
The song's a thing
And this one's thin
From traveling light
The stars at night
Have seen old time to new erosion
Old time gone with old religion
Prickled interest seizing pride
The night the music upped and died
Been listening all the night-long
Been listening all the day
Will I listen for the one you know
Will I listen, will I pray?
It's a-coming all the night long
It's a-coming in the day
It's blowing through my stone ears
Whistling its way.
Left the song behind old chums
The faintest trace of what's to come
What's behind and what is near
Banished by a suckling ear
Coffee lustre
Lend me mine
Nothing came with fear and wine
Been listening all the night long
Been listening all the day
Will I listen for the one you know
Will I listen, will I pray?
The music's gone
The music's dead
The music went and in its stead
A single song, a chorus strong
A symphony
Songs right or wrong
The band's rehearsing, the radios off
The silence is everything
Hold that cough
Been listening all the night-long
Been listening all the day
Will I listen to the one you know
Will I listen, will I pray?
It's a-coming all the night-long
It's a-coming in the day
It's blowing
Through my stone ears
Whistling it's way
Thank you/PenceyPrepsDropout
Acting very silly tonight with friends. No great kisses distracted me, only unoaked wine which was fine, very fine,
Kisses sweeter than wine? Ask Kristen or Rob.
Happy Sunday!
Olivia,
Thank you for the movie reviews. I hadn't heard of Salmon Fishing...will look for it.
DK,
Fun tunes! Sorry you are losing closet space-what would Martha Stewart do?
Kristen looked lovely last night. Such a beauty (and a sport)!
Happy Sunday and April Fool's!
Super- Hope your grandson had a fun filled 1st birthday! Congrats on the new car. Hopefully with 4 cameras you will have better luck!
Olivia- Thanks for all the movie reviews. Not at all interested in MM but I heard "Salmon fishing" was an excellent movie. Plan on seeing it when it comes out on dvd.
Thanks DK for playing one of my favorite songs by the Crystals and Olivia for requesting it.
Saw pics of Kristen from last night's KCA's. Glad she wasn't a slime recipient b/c that dress was too pretty to ruin!
Hope everyone is having a relaxing weekend! Take care...
Hi all, happy Sunday..
I hope everyone is doing well, and enjoying what's left of the weekend. My week was insanely busy, and I'm so out of the loop. Just now reading the post and trying to catch up on comments.
Syd- it has been too long, and you've been missed. No way you'd ever be forgotten. I hope you are happy and well :)
Super- Happy belated birthday to your little grandson. I hope you all had a great time at the party. Also, feel better soon-allergies are in over-drive right now!
Olivia- I remember that interview too, and I agree. It is lovely that he and Kristen are enjoying those date nights :)
DK- sadly, I'm not a mega millionaire either. Lol all my tickets were a total bust ;)
Will peek back in later tonight. Lots of love..
Rhonda! I missed you! I hope things have calmed down now.
My guys returned from Spring Break..... along w/their dirty laundry..... It's nice to have everyone under one roof again.
Enjoy what's left of the week end!
Uh, I'm an idiot - typed Joe Flynn instead of Johnny. I know better, really I do....
Good Evening ROSELAND...Is anyone there??????
Good evening!
@Litmom
I have seen both Johnny or Joe Flynn on various web sites.
As one of the RA lurkers, I did see the SB info. on there. Plus it is Spring Break time all over the country and for our RL teachers, beginning or ending.
See you all soon.
I'll be taking up paddle boarding as soon as I move to Southern Cali! Picture a day at the beach.
Damn, feel bad if these were razzi pics.
Sorry, I looked, but must say....
What a gorgeous way to end the weekend and begin April.
And we thought the month of March was unbelievable.
I'm speechless......in a very good way.... with a big smile.
May the months of April and May ( oh heck, all of 2012 and beyond ) just keep on amazing us.
We love it.
Always so happy for them.
Have a beautiful evening.
Hugs for y'all.
Hugs for Smitty, Gruff and Syd.
April 1st Is A Winner
It's A Good Day
Kay Starr:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YXxd8mmup4M
Yes, it's a good day
For singing a song,
And it's a good day
For moving along;
Yes, it's a good day
How could anything go wrong,
A good day from morning' till night
Yes, it's a good day
For shining your shoes,
And it's a good day
For losing the blues;
Everything go gain
And nothing' to lose,
`Cause it's a good day
From morning' till night
I said to the Sun
Good morning sun
Rise and shine today
You know you've gotta get going
If you're gonna make a showin'
And you know
You've got the right of way.
`Cause it's a good day
For paying your bills;
And it's a good day
For curing your ills,
So take a deep breath
And throw away your pills;
`Cause it's a good day
From morning' till night.
Thank you/nixisan
What A Man
Linda Lyndell (1968):
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M1bVMW2XVNI
I get lovin'
By the hundred
And I get lovin'
By the pint
Got me doin' the camel walk
In my sleep
Make me do the James Brown
Every time I get on my feet
Listen to me
What a man, what a man, what a man
What a mighty good man
Yes he is
A mighty mighty good man
Let me put it on your mind
He thrills me, kills me
He's a lovin' kind
Another ounce of his love
And I think I'm a gonna slip
Lose my grip
And do back over flips
Listen now
What a man
And deep inside I know it
What a man
And I'm not ashamed to show it
Yeah
Yes he is
He can do, good god
He can do the funky broadway
Yes he can
The funky four corner
He can back up
Back up and do the tighten up
Thank you/vaataja
Surf's Up
Brian Wison & Beach Boys:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QQ2OKoLpNBM
A diamond necklace played the pawn
Hand in hand some drummed along, oh
To a handsome man and baton
A blind class aristocracy
Back through the opera glass
You see the pit
And the pendulum drawn
Columnated ruins domino
Canvass the town and brush the backdrop
Are you sleeping?
Hung velvet overtaken me
Dim chandelier awaken me
To a song dissolved in the dawn
The music hall a costly bow
The music all is lost for now
To a muted trumperter swan
Columnated ruins domino
Canvass the town
And brush the backdrop
Are you sleeping, Brother John?
Dove nested towers the hour was
Strike the street quicksilver moon
Carriage across the fog
Two-Step to lamp lights cellar tune
The laughs come hard
In Auld Lang Syne
The glass was raised
The fired rose
The fullness of the wine
The dim last toasting
While at port adieu or die
A choke of grief heart
Hardened I beyond belief
A broken man too tough to cry
Surf's up
Aboard a tidal wave
Come about hard and join
The young and often spring you gave
I heard the word
Wonderful thing
A children's song
Child, child, child, child, child
A child is the father of the man
Child, child, child, child, child
A child is the father of the man
A children's song
Have you listened as they played
Their song is love
And the children know the way
That's why the child
Is the father to the man
Child, child, child, child, child
Child, child, child, child, child
Na na na na na na na na
Child, child, child, child, child
That's why
The child is the father
To the man
Thank you/mickeyelm
Let Me Fall In Love
Marketa Irglova:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-Ar9syGQYYQ&feature=fvwrel
Before I go to sleep tonight
Won't you tell a story
One that does not center
Around power or glory
A simple tale of love
That is tender and sweet
However glorified still uncorrupted
With a steady heartbeat
Or better still of love
That's also passionate and wide
That holds the light of youth
And makes you playful
Like a child
And let me fall in love
Fall in love
I've heard people speak
Of sad endings and broken hearts
But the heart does heal
And where one thing ends
Another starts
I've heard them say
They wish they never knew
Such pain
But to wish for pain-free love
Is to wish in vain
And anyway pain
Does not have to mean suffering
If love is a gift
To it
Yield an offering
Cause when you're in love
You fall in love with everything
With everyone
And you look at the world
Through a new pair of eyes
And you see fear it crawls
But love it flies
So, fly away, fly away
Grow a pair of wings
And soar up high
This bird it sings a lullaby
Close your eyes
Now go to sleep
And dream a dream
Of falling deep in love
And let me fall in love
Fall in love
Thank you/cryde12

"What A Man" is the perfect song today, that he is!
Could these two people be more beautiful? He just looks so happy and free. It looks like the life he has chosen is agreeing with him (and Kristen). Wow,what a weekend of pretty.

Hi Everyone.
Great pictures over the weekend. It's good to see them both looking so happy and well :)
Hey gang!
Ditto to what everyone has expressed about the week end pix. It's nice to see 2 hard working people enjoying their much deserved time off. Life is good!
