Girls’ night!

John and Will have a gig tonight, a late one, so I’m going to hang out with Christina, eat Indian food, drink wine, and maybe watch a movie or something.  That is a perfect night out.  Hey, it’s out for me – not my house.

I just have to make sure it’s not a scary movie (I don’t think that’ll be a problem) because the Black Tapes podcast keeps creeping me out.  Just a little.  And John will be out late, so I’ll probably be coming home to a dark, empty house.  Happy movies for me!

I really don’t know why I keep getting this urge to watch scary movies.  I don’t want to watch the gory ones.  I want to watch the scary thrillers, or the ones that are just different enough, like Cabin in the Woods.  But when even Stranger Things can get to me, it seems really stupid to want to watch more things like that.  And seriously, Stranger Things isn’t scary.  It just had that one thing that got stuck in my imagination.

So worst case scenario: I come home, it’s dark, and I’m scared.  Solution: Watch Friends on Netflix downstairs with all the lights on until John comes home.  That’ll do.

    We watched a couple of episodes of Stranger Things but didn’t really find anything scary about it. Maybe we should watch more? We both were reminded of The Goonies. Tip: DON’T WATCH SCARY MOVIES WHEN YOU’RE HOME ALONE!

    Maybe scary is the wrong word. Eerie? Atmospheric? And yes, it’s supposed to make you think of The Goonies and ET and Poltergeist and Stephen King novels and movies and lots of other 80s things.
