More Pocket Edward Adventurous
Posted by Isabel on May 14th, 2009. Filed under: Addictions, Guest Posts, They're just my friends.Hola Isabel Fans! Isabel’s best friend who deserted her and moved to Reno (otherwise known as May) here, guest blogging while Isabel is visiting her lovely family.
My birthday was last week and it kind of sucked. I have no one to blame but myself. I dragged my little family on an eight hour road trip so that we could go to my cousin’s wedding. So four-in-the-fraking-morning we loaded Lil May & The Gretch into the car (the grand plan being that they’d sleep for at least half the drive. Not so much. Instead they slept approximately 2.5 minutes each). So that started the suckage. Then I got a “Road Trip Migrane”.
When we finally rolled into Salt Lake City, I was in a mighty foul mood.
But then I remembered that Isabel sent me a mysterious package! When I opened it, I found my OWN MINI POCKET EDWARD, purchased with love on etsy. So in homage to our favorite Pocket Edward, I took some photos of him and our journeys.
Look, he’s totally pondering the homogenization of our society!
Here he is on my brother-in-law’s side of the bed…
Here he is with my brother-in-law’s pretty wife…
Edward was glad the weather cooperated. Nothing like overcast skies to bring a smile to a felt-mini-vampire’s face…
Sniff, this is the last time I saw Mini Pocket Edward. I tucked him carefully beside my seat, in easy reach so that I could keep him photo-ready. We stopped at the Salt Flats… 
…got back on the road, and I haven’t seen him since. I’m feeling an empty hole in my chest, ready to rip apart. I’m sitting all angsty in front of my computer, pale and withdrawn. If Jacob doesn’t get here soon to piece me back together, I might not make it. Maybe I’ll get the scooter from the garage and do some curb jumps so I can hear his sweet velvet voice in my head…
Till I find my dear Mini Pocket Edward, I made a PAPER POCKET EDWARD to tide me over! Look! He’s ready to start back at Forks High with his Pee Chee folder AND a trapper keeper (he likes fast cars). Also, I gave him some cleaning supplies because a hot guy cleaning my bathroom is pretty much the pinnacle of existence, right? Or, if need arises, a pirate costume.
Do you know what would be awesome? If you printed out Paper Pocket Edward, on sparkly card stock paper, of course, and took him on some adventures. You also might want to laminate him prior to cutting him out.
Till then, Be Safe.
xoxo

how…why…when…ah…I need my own Pocket Edward to keep ME company. And Paper Pocket Edward…so versatile, so suave and mysterious.
Seriously, May, you crack me up. This post had me laughing when I should have been not laughing at how my children were decidedly not getting ready for school. Thanks to you for that!!!!

Great guest post! Sorry you lost mini Edward, but I think the paper doll substitute will work out just fine. Just make sure you spackle glitter all over him so he sparkles.
