Hello, welcome, benvenuti

MI, you know your Twilight very well . I'm scared of becoming addicted also to Twilight on top of all the useless addictions I already have (from the wire to mn, scamy etc) . I really find RP not attractive at all. I feel old.

Rosa, sorry to hear minirosa is teething and keeping you awake at night. I hope she settles asap. Will you be able to get some rest in the UK do you think? You must be so looking forward to seeing your family !

Pinco get Interepreter of maladies, I urge you!
What do I want for Christmas.... mmmmmmm... tutto e niente, really.
I'd like a pair of grey Ugg boots. But I'd love dh to get them without involving me so that at least I wouldn't feel guilty... but it's never going to happen.
A pair of earrings from atelier vm, but again, it's never going to happen.
A vitra chair, those with the plastic seduta and wooden legs. Never going to happen either.

ah ah MI, of course i have read Midnight Sun too, and gosh i would love a proper dirty look into Edward's mind . but even if she does finish it it won't be dirty, although i can probably fill it in with my imagination...

For me it's been the other way round, i liked the books ok, but it wasn't until i saw RPatz as Edward that i lost control Franca he is incredibly constipated tortured and really really sexshy in the movie, all broody and suffering... just how i liked my boys in high school.

(ps for Minerva's benefit only- have you seen this interview?]]

ps yes it was me who recommended the interpreter of maladies Franca, so i can claim a bit of high-brow credit after my pathetic discent into twilighy trash (it's nice in here though )

Oh yes, I've liked (supposedly) broody guys all my life.
He does have a very nice voice, I'll give you that. Mmmmm he is prettier in interviews than in the movie. He is too pale and spigoloso in the movie, which I suppose it's fair enough for a vampire

I'm loving Interpreter... thanks for recommending it.

I am in UK for xmas, but back on the 28th, I think. Definitely up for a meet up, I don't have CAT but my email is sputnikinspace at gmail dot com

I think I got over vampires with my very seriously gothic phase at 17. Give me Bela Lugosi any day

see i think that's my problem. i didn't have any major phases as a teenager so i am doing all the teenage stuff now. dh is highly amused

will email you Gio and Sput, would be lovely to meet you.

I did it all! And thereby got it out of my system (possibly, I reserve the right to return to purple hair one day).

lol lol at Sput and her purple hair.
Just gone back to that thread to see what they are on about now. Am actually finding the level of participation on in really quite disturbing! All this amateur detective work based on internet findings including.... wikipedia. WTF!!I don't get it....
That'll be lovely having a Rome meet up ladies, we must sort it.

Sputnik I had purple hair too!

Yes, I agree Gio.

at purple hair. I always had the wrong hair cut as a teenager. Which probably is the reason why I didn't do it all as a teenager...

mmmmmmmm I've just tasted a slice of chocolat noir lavande fine de haute-provence.... buonissimo...

Mm that sounds nice.
How did purple hair go down in Perugia I wnder

see i was a real secchiona as a teenager, very unhealthy . i now understand why when my dad came to visit me at uni once and found me in the throngs of a massive hangover with the flat a bombsite from too much partying his words were "era ora, i thought it would never happen"

i think this is the reason my dh is so well adjusted- he had a very free and rebellious adolescence and got it all out of his system.

gio have catted you, when you reply can you pls copy Sputnik?

You wonder rightly sputnik but tbh by the time I got to purple people were bored...

yes that's why dh and I are quite happy to be middleaged suburbian bores now. seen it and done it.

pippi!

I was quite giudiziosa as a teenager. I smoke my first cigarette at 17, 3 yrs after all my friends did ... I did more stupidate when I was 25 and over. Not many though. I wish I had lots of handsome and broody boyfriends in my youth.

pippi. The other day we laughed so much with our friend who rang the vigili at midnight because of the noise and cars (belonging to club goers) parked on residents parking permit spaces... apparently she met the vigili (who actually turned up) in the street with her ciabatte . We thought oooooh how old have we got? Friend of ours told her that her next step would be to vote AN (she is a die hard leftie)

Hmm, handsome and brooding boyfriends are overrated, especally the brooding part.

So Pinco, did you do green, blue and pink as well? Simultaneously? And did you have a cresta?

ROFL. Yes that sounds like something I would do before I stop and remember the old days. I am quite fond of tutting away . Dh and I also take the piss out of each other for our very sad reverence for John Lewis and Waitrose. I swear I never knew these shops exhisted till 4 years ago ! Voting Tories would be my next step dya reckon?

I'm impressed at the efficiency of the Milanese vigili though.

dh once had to go downstairs to complain about a party our neighbours teenage daughter was throwing. he almost died with the embarrassment of it all and was depressed for weeks because a kid thought he was the girl's father. in his mind he still looks 18

I know Sputnik. After many yrs you realize that they are not broody, they just don't have much to say. Nevertheless, I wish I had at least ONE handsome, broody boyfriend in my teenage yrs. Not a single one

Yes, the vigili turned up. Bizarre, as they never respond (I think they are paid by clubs to not turn up and give out fines. boh!) They didn't do much, just fined a guy who was driving in the wrong way .

Yes that's the thing. i haven't had a broody moody handsome boyfriend ever (dh is handsome, and can be sulky, but he's a grown man, so different story).

i think my middle brother was a bit like RPatz as a teenager. we had girls coming over to the house to ask my dad what they could do to impress him...

ROFL Masseuse . Oh I wish I could go to a teenager party. Smoke 20 cigs, maybe a joint (sharing) and drink Bailey's (or was this what we did in our time. What do teenagers do nowadays? Actually, I don't want to know)
