I started with three straight first-watch film reviews and then followed it up with two recommendations of things I'd already seen. I refuse to fall to .500 on the year so I made sure today was a new one instead of just another recommendation. After all, a big reason behind this increasingly difficult endeavor was to watch more movies, especially horror movies. If I spend the whole month talking about past experiences I'll leave no time for new ones and negate the original purpose altogether.
It's not that I'm not enjoying the ride; I'm glad you small
handful of people are actually taking the time to read these and I hope you get
something out of it as well. It's just that, instead of using my
recently-acquired slices of free time for lazing about and watching movies
etc., I've just added to my to-do list and have, possibly, found myself with
less free time than before. Some of us are just wired that way, I guess.
But who knows? Maybe I'll grow addicted to one-sided
conversation and find other things to talk about after October comes to an end.
Or perhaps I'll just smash my fingers with a hammer and force myself into early
retirement.
