You know [livejournal.com profile] yendi is doing one horror movie review a day - every day, this year. (Not reading him? Shame. Go check. I'll wait. .. See? Yup.)

But it occurs to me, after screening the film I signed up for NetFlix to see (and I was very pleasantly surprised to discover my curiosity wasn't misplaced) - that reviewing this class of films might be entertaining.

Uh, these are the ones that are so stupidly conceived, OMG why would you want to see THAT, bad, worse and too embarrassing to rent over the counter, let alone BUY - that you sign up for them on a secure-locked site and have them mailed to you.

Who wants to know?

I also was able to get the first of my 50 Book Challenge read while waiting in the freezer section jury assembly room. Will post review later.

Because, now - I go to work!

Folks in Las Vegas, when would you like us to come visit? We're needing to see at least two shows, and we want a vacation that won't suck. That means we want to see people who love seeing us. Ante up.

Folks in Cleveland, it looks like it'll be the week of June 2nd - yes, we'll be nearby for a family reunion, and I want a replay of the roadtrip in 2000. You want us, all ya have to do is ask for it. Uh, US.

Folks in Switzerland, I'm considering a trip in August or September. SERIOUSLY considering. You want us, you can have us - all you have to do is say so.

..

To me, heaven is not a place where you stop doing everything. Hell would be where I'd stop doing everything and never do a single thing again.

And I freely admit it - when life was going south for Cliff, the only thing he could think about was taking a trip. I'm afraid that's rubbed off a bit on me.

Struggling to maintain equilibrium here - she's been in my life over 25 years, and we are not alike in any way; she is difficult to deal with, opinionated as all hell and we had little in common.

Yet, we never argued. Never fought. We were never angry with each other. She never created issues with my BIL or my sister over issues she may have had with me. She always, always remembered me no matter what - in marriage, in death, in every Christmas...in short, she was family who never gave me grief. (She gave plenty to others, but not me.)

Hers is another passing I can't begrudge. I only hope it won't take long to let her go. She's been terribly unhappy for too many years.
