I used to think I would never see 25 and now 44 years later, I'm looking at 100 as the goal. I got this.

I loved Vincent Price, just rented the Pit and the Pendulum to watch again. I heard it read at a Poe event, I came home and read it again myself then watched. It brought back some cool memories of watching Vincent Price with my friends.

I remember The Birds so well, which is a miracle, considering my memory of late. But that movie didn't scare me. Maybe. Vincent Price did more. It might have been the tone of his voice and his special kind of articulation.

I am a bit the same. Those movies you mentioned such as Saw and Chainsaw Massacre I couldn't watch those. However I love things like Monster series on Netflix and just watched The Ed Gein Story and loved it. Which is strange to say but I think for me the real life horror is more psychology type thing. Why are these people the way they are?

I flip flop back between do I believe people are born evil or is it their environment etc.

In Ed's case I think that his mother and father had mental issues which can be hereditary, so most likely he had mental issues when he was born and then his upbringing with parents, especially his mother manifested those mental issues. It maybe could have been different had his issues been picked up when he was younger and helped. He eventually was diagnosed with schizophrenia.

Anyway, probably didn't want to read all that ha ha ha.

Seasons

Prompt: Have fun with these quotes:

"November’s dress code: sweater in the morning, regret by noon, blanket burrito by night." — Unknown

"This month I’m thankful for elastic waistbands and friends who understand second helpings are non-negotiable." — Unknown

The biggest difference between hemispheres for me is that the seasons are opposite to each other. November to me, in the Southern Hemisphere, is the start of shedding clothing and sorting out Winter/summer wardrobes. Gone are the opportunities of hiding behind expanding waistbands, now warm clothes are to be shed and packed away.
I love dressing for winter, long sleeves hide less than beautiful arms, sweaters and baggy numbers hide a plethora of sins and I love my baggy jeans, socks and sneakers.
Summer is not kind to us who no longer can wear swimwear with pride, or rock a pair of short shorts as we used to back in the day.
