Where is Spring?

Here we are at the end of the month.  The end of April.  It was 92 degrees today.  After being 96 yesterday.  Where did Spring go?  My poor tulips have bloomed and got burned to a crisp the past few days.  Major bummer.  No wilting, just the evil, evil sun burning the edges of my beautiful parrot tulips.

On the positive side of the fast-moving seasons, May is just around the corner.  May is a big month: May 5th is the release of the newest Sookie Stackhouse novel, Dead and Gone, and then on May 19th comes True Blood in blu-ray.  I only ordered the blu-ray version because we missed out on the series in HD and I really want to see it in HD. (Uhm, cute nekkid vampire butt in HD?  Definitely!)  And let’s not forget the release of Underworld: Rise of the Lycans.  Can’t wait to see it – one I am very sad to have missed in the theatre.

June is a big month too with True Blood starting up again.  I was reading something somewhere that said that Allen Ball knows Eric is a big part of the books and will hold true to the story (while adding in other characters) – I really hope it’s true.  Eric is a HUGE part of the books.  Really, he’s why I keep reading.

July is TwiCon.  Can’t wait.  I purchased the plane tickets for my sister and I and have us getting to Dallas with plenty of time before it officially starts.  I think we’re mainly looking forward to meeting the stars of the movie.  Sad that Rob Pattinson and Kristen Stewart won’t be there — but hey, Jackson Rathbone, Peter Facinelli and Kellan Lutz MORE than make up for it. :)  And… to add more fuel to my love of Twilight, Michael Sheen, who played Lucian in Underworld: Evolution and Underworld: Rise of the Lycans, is playing Aro in New Moon.  WOO HOO.  Although, funny he was a werewolf fighting against vampires and will now be a super powerful vampire.

And then that’s it.  That’s my big summer plans.  The theme seems to be centered around vampires, although, it’s not something I can help or intended. ;)
