I'd be too busy having fun with my new-found existence, and deciding who I was going to turn.

Oh damn. You'd better hope that "vampires mate for eternity" idea is true because can you even IMAGINE the break-up process if you decided you no longer wanted to be with Homie-You-Turned-Vamp? You'd have an ex FOR ETERNITY, who might, quite literally, get bored enough to sit up at night thinking of ways to get revenge!!!
