Sometimes I wonder about myself. I went to the library to pick out some reading material for the two hour drive to Tennesee on Sunday, and came out with two books on horror film analysis and "The Essential Monster Movie Guide". This in itself presents a few intellectual puzzles:

1) The drive is to Poplar Cave. Why did I pick out horror-based books to read right before descending into a deep dark hole in the ground? At least I'm not watching "The Descent", because I'm pretty sure that would just push it over the edge into moronic.

2) I seem to have some sort of fascination with reading up on horror films, but an extreme aversion to watching them. Perhaps it's because the plot is wrapped in a tight little package and tied off from the actual horrorific content. Sanitized behind plexiglass, if you will. Of course, that still doesn't explain my interest in the first place.

3) There's a possibility this ties in to my recent resurgance of interest in the occult and demonic. The person at fault knows who they are, of course, but just the general concept of it is something that's always been rather intriguing. Of course, the whole immortal soul burning in hell forever thing does slightly concern me, but there isn't really a clear safety zone I can go into so I've rather given up on finding a way to fix the potential problem.

4) Why the FUCK did I not think to stretch before doing weight lifting yesterday? My upper arms feel like they're attempting to mimic balls of twine in terms of muscle tightness.

Dance through Hell in fireproof clothing.

...I have no idea who just handed me that, but I approve.

It sounds like a song lyric.

Yeah, "The Descent" is a real sleep-killer.

Like I said, me and horror flicks don't mesh.

I'm the same way. I love reading about them (Wikipedia is good for that) but even seeing the previews gives me this weird paranoid feeling.
