Yeah, I kind of scratched my head over the baseball scene myself. It was really silly.

I had no idea that my feeling of obligation was shared by others. I wish I could describe it better...I mean, it's not that I'm overly attached to the main characters. Maybe it has something to do with the need to know whether Bella is FINALLY going to get Edward the way she wants him, and suffering through all the stuff she has to endure for the sake of that payoff. I mean, I know I'm not to expect anything super pornographic, or even slightly pornographic for that matter, but I'm still chomping at the bit to see the moment that they final give in to their desires, because if Meyer is skilled in one area, it's the ability to convey the tension that stems from wanting someone and being unable to act on it.
