Yeah I can imagine it would be tough - I haven't seen that show Ghost Whisperer but I always catch Medium re-runs on Lifetime late at night (lol) and Allison is always meeting all these challenges about what she sees and how people don't believe her.  I just think that would be really, really hard.

I can't wait for Last Exorcism.  I love to watch movies that scare the crap out of me.  I'm looking forward to Paranormal Activity 2 also

How long did it take you to understand what was happening? Do you talk to them?

I completely believe in ghosts and believe that I have seen one - but not like you do.  I saw one shadow person of sorts but I think it was just doing its thing and not there for me to really notice it if that makes sense.

[Deleted User]

Yes, B, I know the feeling. Those movements, I don't know why but they scare the hell out of me. I don't let H out of my sight for the rest of the night usually. I didn't see the remake but I do remember that scene from the previews and just that gives me the creeps.

There is a similiar scene in the Grudge, maybe the second one, where the kid is crawling down the stairs and I have to look away.

I really liked that movie, betrothed - it's a cool ghost/demon movie but it's also a pretty good courtroom drama too.

I'll add it to my list.

I have seen them ever since I can remember.  When I was little I used to talk to them all the time.  My mom thought I had an imaginary friend.

I dont like seeing them now and dont want to talk to them.  I have, but most of the time its "Go away".

Ok, I'm still on page 2 but I just have to ask if you have heard of the author Charlaine Harris (True Blood) and some of her earlier series books? She has these Aurora Teagarden books and the first one is about a club she belongs to called Real Murders, where they explore famous and not-so-famous killers from history. Awesome idea. :P

28 Days Later.  I dont know why, but that movie scares the shiiit out of me.

I have not seen many horror movies because I am a wuss.

missy68

Piranha IS actually a "reimaging." The original was cheesy fun. This one has Richard Dreyfuss, Ving Rhames, so how bad can it be? I don't remember which opens first.

I did read on imdb that the girl in the Last Exorcism did the contortions herself. I'm not sure how accurate that is, but that's what it says - she's double jointed or super limber or something. There's no cgi.

And yes, creepy crawly kids freak me out.

Posted by maratea[/QUOTE]

Absolutely, 100%. The stone is a family heirloom, FI's Mom's Mom's Godmother's. (Yeah, that's kind of hard to follow). Family history is extremely important to me and it meant so much to me that FI's mom loves me so much to pass the ring(stone) on and that FI knew how precious it would be to me because it is from his family.

That sounds like the perfect movie for me to sit in the dark alone and watch.  I love terrifying movies, especially when I'm alone.

B, what is your favorite movie of all time?
It's a toss up between The Princess Bride and Labyrinth.

Hmm, he's done a lot. One I always remember is that on our second date, just before we were leaving for dinner, my mom called and told me my cat died. I was heartbroken. So H, having met me only once before, was now left with a crying woman. He took me to the beach and we walked for awhile, and he just held my hand and let me cry.

I was also really scared to tell him about all my baggage, figured he'd run for the hills when I did. But after I told him, he just kissed me, said he loved me, and asked if I wanted to go get some ice cream and a movie, his treat--this doesn't sound like much, but it proved how well he knew me and how he knew what I needed at that time.

You bet your booty I'm Canadian jas. 

I haven't spent much of my adult life single, I'm a serial monogamist, so it's hard to say what I missed....


ETA:  I typed that a LONG time ago, but then had to go deal with some shiit at work, so I figured I'd hit post anyway....

tba0313

TBA, are you nervous about your upcoming wedding?

Only about sobbing like a baby and dancing with my dad.  I'm not real touchy feely, we've never danced together, and it freaks me out to think about him crying.  I love him dearly, but the whole situation is just uncomfortable for me.

Other than that, I am freakin stoked! It needs to hurry up!

[QUOTE] AATB, do you vote? Who did you vote for in the 2008 presidential election?
Posted by MarriedInAFever[/QUOTE]

I do vote - but the past few elections have been a nightmare for me.  I always get to meet all the candidates and hear all their sides - good and bad. 

In 2008 I remember that I'd figured out who I was voting for in all the other races and saved the presidential election for last.  I live in a conservative state (nd) so I knew no matter who I voted for, it would swing to McCain.  I actually think John McCain would be a fine president - he shoulda been in there instead of G-dub.  But in the end, I voted Obama.  I couldn't get past the Sarah Palin thing.  I truly liked her for a day and then after that every time she opened her mouth my eyes rolled back into my head.

I like to think it was more of a vote against McCain than for Obama, though.  And that's usually how I justify my votes.

No one I know IRL knows how I vote though.  So this is classified information, ya'll.

B, I love Labyrinth and David Bowie.

We met at work. We both worked for a video game company for a few years before we actually started talking. After I filed for divorce I ran into him in a hallway and asked him what exactly his job title was (we have lots of different types of artists/designers). He showed me his desk and what he was working on and we just kept talking until we were dating and it was love. :P

My favourite place to go?  Must be Home Depot, 'cause I'm there multiple times a week.  I dunno though.  We're homebodies and usually just hang out at home.  We're still relatively new to the city, so haven't really found any great restaurants to hang out at.  Sooooo, I'll say the liquor store.
