Twilight zone


  I don't think "not killing me" is proof of love. I take that part for granted. Proof of love must go way beyond letting me live. So the gist behind the "Twilight" franchise bothers me. I don't know much about the books or movies, but I'm leery enough that my kids haven't seen them. But that doesn't mean they don't know about them.
  Princess knows how I feel but is not deterred. She thinks the whole thing looks really cool. So when I found a website where you could stick your face in a "New Moon" poster, I made one for her. I thought it was funny. She liked it a little too much.
  It has become a disturbing vision of my future. The picture makes her look like a teenager — a teenager clinging to a boy.

Wow... that is scary. There are some things that you can't hold back, including time, tide and teenagers. I realized today I only have ten years left before a teen daughter is in my house...
