Watching Thirteen Ghosts, one of my favorite movies. We watched it in the theater when it came out & the jackal gave me nightmares.
Far from perfect, but so much fun, the DVD we have has an extra features disc with the background story on each ghost. #13ghosts #thejackalghost #horrormovies

Currently reading "Civil Living" by Pete Wiley. 📚
Is civility dead—or just waiting to be rediscovered?
In a world growing more divided, loud, & combative, it offers a refreshing and practical invitation to reclaim the art of respectful, meaningful connection.

Who's ready for the new season of Star Trek: Strange New Worlds? I am! Last night I watched the last two episodes of season 2 to get ready for season 3 dropping today on Paramount. I had totally forgotten that it ended on a cliffhanger as they are dealing with the Gorn. #startrek #gorn

Me: OMG, I can't wait to see the new Mission Impossible movie.
Finding out it's 2hrs 50mins long: That's okay, I'll wait until it's streaming.
I really don't have the patience to watch a movie that's more than 2 hours long, especially at a movie theatre.

Currently watching Thirteen Ghosts, the updated one, not the classic. It's one of my favorite movies and while it may not be perfect, I like the ghosts. This one, The Jackal, is especially creepy, MF gave me nightmares. #thirteenghosts #thejackal #horrormovies #ghosts
