Celebrate Good Times, COME ON!
Dear LTT gals and lads,
Just like KC and the Sunshine Band sang it’s time for a Celebration! Just the other night we had this conversation…
Moon: I just want to hug all these people [our readers] and be like you know what? You’re pretty cool. I can be having a shitty day, working for people who suck and clients who hate me, but I know somewhere there’s someone reading the blog and THEY like me! Very gushy I know, and maybe a tad drunk, but still gushyand NORMAL
UC: and I feel the same way
Moon: “Gushy” is one of my favorite terms because though I come off as a tough bitch on the exterior to most people, inside I am a truly and deeply sentimental person. Probably almost to a fault, but it’s true, and I can’t deny it- I love to gush.
Today we’re gushing because in our wildest imagination, 4 months ago on December 8th, 2008, we never imagined we’d be HERE with you all, over 500,000 views and 30,000+ comments later! Whew!
However large these blogs end up getting, we hope that one thing remains the same- that you feel personally connected to us and the other readers here, because if nothing else we want this to be a personal experience (albeit a funny one!) because Stephenie Meyer’s books are exactly that- a truly personal look at love and relationships. We can only hope that we convey one ounce of that to you all.
Happy FOUR MONTH anniversary to us! After the jump you can see ours and some of our very own commenters hand-picked favorite posts from the past 4 months.
We love you all and look forward to the next 4,

Our Favorite LTT Posts…
Moon and UC’s fave’s
We’re gonna have to go old school with the very first post EVER “The Purpose Driven Vampire” I mean HELLO I (moon) thought of and wrote the entire post in my head while using the potty! TMI? That’s NORMAL! And it’s where the whole Kellan/youth group story line comes from…

The Purpose Driven Vampire
Here are some of the letter highlights:
“Last night after watching the Vanity Fair outtakes video, I decided I hadn’t wasted enough time so why not read all TWELVE interviews? Then I got to yours. And I read that your favorite book is “The Purpose Driven Life” … so that got me to thinking you chose this for two reasons…” Read letter here!
Another Moon/UC Favorite:
Besides quoting the Disney Pocahontas song UC pleads to be cast as Emily and then genius strikes and asks to be cast as Tanya instead in New Moon. So much win in that one. We still laugh reading it.

I Can Paint With All The Colors of the Wind
Here are some of the letter highlights:
“Hello. My name is UnintendedChoice, and I wanted to introduce myself because I am coming to visit you really soon. Actually, it’s a good idea for us to become bff’s because you’ll be seeing a lot of me in the upcoming months, starting on Sunday, February 8, from 9am-12pm at the Second Ave Studios.
You see, I have what we call an acute fondness for Robert Pattinson (not to mention a sorta unhealthy obsession of looking at this picture of Taylor Lautner)…” Read letter here!

LTT Commenter Favorite Posts:
Christa’s Fave: My favorite Letter to Twilight is from the same (as my favorite Letter to Rob from that) time and while I’ve picked it for a similar reason, this one has truly become a classic. These two Letters combined caused me to call OMB in the middle of the night, laughing, because I just had to share with someone how strange and wonderfully funny these sites were. OMB wasn’t online at that moment of course. Not to be deterred, I insisted on holding my cell phone up to my laptop’s speaker so OMB could at least hear the beauty that is Jizz in My Pants

This Really Never Happens You Can Take My Word
Here are some of the highlights:
“Dear Rob-
Everytime I see you do this face in the movie I get a little uncomfortable and I have to excuse myself for a second… apparently someone else understands…” Read letter here
Gen22’s Fave:
f-a-k-e l-e-s-b-i-a-n-s
This is how you found us? Vol. 2
Excerpt of our favs:
- filet-o-fish fan site – uh no, not us but this sounds like the perfect name for our new LetterstoTaylorsDad fan site. We LOVE you Taylor’s Dad!
- pornos – um, wrong place dudes. Unless we’re talking Rob, then head over here
- Robert pattinson win a date contest 2009 – Brought to you by a Nigerian Prince and the UK Lottery (which you’ve won!). Just ask these girls
- robert pattinson on puberty – this sounds like an after school special wherein Rob explains “the change” to a group of 6th graders in a smelly cafeteria
- robert pattinson buttcrack – Oh HALE nah, who does Rob think he is? Our lover Buttcrack Santa. NEVER!

My name’s Chris Hansen and you’re on Dateline NBC
Which way to the gunshow?
The title says it all, but here’s an excerpt:
“The only other thing I can say after watching this interview is I totally felt 2nd hand embarrassed when the weird creepy interviewer guy said “how many inches around is that?” and then asked you if you had a “sixer” going on! And made you lift up your shirt! Uh? EW. I looked over my shoulder to make sure Chris Hanson wasn’t going to jump out and surprise me with the Dateline film crew cause it felt so skeezy. But I do have to say uh, WOW. You are ripped for a 16 yr old, and now I feel weird.”

Kellan.Spiders.Over-Priced TShirts.
Here are some of the letter highlights:
Dear Kellan –
Why am I not surprised to find out you were an Abercrombie and Fitch model? I always thought you looked like one but to see these confirms just about everything I’ve ever thought about you. You’re the boy of my innocent, Jesus loving, pom pom waving, 15 yr old fantasies. But then I found rock n roll and grew up…” Read the entire post here
