Belated Haunted Humpday # 8


You'll all have to forgive me for being late with this Haunted Humpday post. This is the last week of this term and I am finishing up homework. I have also been sleeping a lot more than I would like but I will talk about that in another post. 

This week I am going to talk about two movies and a little craft from last year. For our anniversary, Amanda took me to Dracula Untold. I loved it! I really liked the cast and the story, the effects, everything! Plus, it sets up the story line for future monster movies. I read an article somewhere, can't remember where, saying that someone was going to do reboots of all of the famous monster movies. I am excited! Especially if Dracula will be in them! 


Amanda and I also watched a movie a few nights ago called Devil's Pass. It's horror film about some film students who want to make a documentary about what happened to a group of people who were lost in the Ural mountains in Russia. It's really interesting and actually a little scary. We enjoyed it. 

 Amanda and I sort of collect Monster High Dolls. Last year for Halloween, we made a house for them out of boxes and various things because they are freaky fabulous and needed to be part of the decor! 

It's nothing special or spectacular, but it was really neat for what it was. We ended up giving the house to one of Amanda's younger cousins so she could have it for her Monster High Dolls.

Back from birthday trip

View from my hotel room
I went with the gf, her mother, and her aunt up to a casino north of where I live for my birthday. We did a little gambling, went swimming, sat in the dry sauna and the hot tub. I played Guildwars with my Dad and some people in my alliance while Skoora finished up her MFA homework. It was very relaxing and the only thing I felt any real pressure to do was decide what I wanted for dinner. 

However, I came back with something, a cold or bug of some kind. I feel terrible today! So what did I do? I went to the store and bought some 'make me feel better' treats. We bought strawberries, cheese, mini peppers, coffee creamer, pizza rolls, and grapes. We also picked up two scary movies from the Red Box, Sinister and Possession. 

Both movies were good, creepy, and I am happy to watch something a little lighter before bed. Not that Criminal Minds is any lighter but Skoora's mom snagged the TV remote before I could do much about it. I will probably vacate to the bedroom pretty soon. Since I want to be well before this weekend, I had better get some sleep. 

I can't remember what else I was going to write about... I am trying an experiment in cheese dying. I am trying to make green cheese for St. Patrick's day. I have no idea how this is going to turn out, if the cheese will be any good, or if everyone, including me, will turn noses up at it.
