Went to the rental store with Chris and Devin for one of our monthly 'yay crappy horror movies' fests (today's selections-- some incredibly cheesy looking thing called The Slaughter, and Hatchet) and we rented Jack Ketchum's The Girl Next Door for Devin-- I'm not exactly up for something that grim right now, and neither is Chris, but my brother is carrying on my teenage tradition well. ;-)
Anyway, walked into the store and saw on their new releases list that they have both He Was a Quiet Man and Love Lies Bleeding.
So of course I make a beeline, only to find that the universe is pulling one of those conspiring-against-me things again and both movies are out.
Chris: "I know what you're thinking."
Me: *I certainly hope not*
Chris: "You cannot camp out in front of the movie drop box."
Me: "Just for a little while?"
I think that's one of the many things I love about being a fan-- mental time travel. I'm a 26-year old married mother now, and I can be having a blah day, but then I find out that I have a couple of new movies of his to watch very soon and I'm immediately right back to being fifteen and practically skipping down the street as I'm walking home with dad from seeing Broken Arrow, chattering on about 'that was such a fun movie and we have to rent that as soon as it's out so Jenny can see it too if she hasn't already and heeeey I wonder who that guy was', as my poor father was surely thinking 'oh god she's discovered hormones help'.
See? Massive run-on sentences. Proof right there. ;-)
Anyway, I'm going to go eat junk food and laugh at bad horror movies and zone out. My kind of evening.
