When I was a kid, my brother and I were riding in the back of a pickup truck (this was back in the days when that was considered okay!). My parents were in the truck driving us along a dark, forested area on some small road in the middle of nowhere, SC. My brother and I have overactive imaginations and swore we saw "tree people" staring at us and banged loudly on the window and demanded we all squeeze inside the truck so we'd be safe from the "tree people". We still laugh about it to this day!
I love to travel! My favorite place to travel is somewhere new. This summer we explored Las Vegas and went to the Grand Canyon. I also went on my first ghost tour in Savannah, GA.
Love love LOVE Castiel! In fact, I love just about anyone on Supernatural as that still ranks as one of the best tv shows in that genre imo. And Hellboy... who can't help but love Hellboy just cause!
Those 5 things are so very, very true!! I'm so sorry you couldn't find a way to put the Dooziers on a cruise- even the thought has me laughing like a loon. As for your question, I try to avoid hobby groups other than book clubs but yes, I've been in a book club with an individual that should be thankful the members didn't read a lot of mystery novels or I'm sure they'd have figured out a way to dispose of her permanently LOL!!!
I love vampires, shifters, and all sorts of other supernatural creatures... but a zombie? Oh this is one story I MUST read! Love your first paragraph of this blog as it hooked me.
Why do I read? That's almost like asking me why do I breathe?? I've been reading for as long as I can remember. My parents made sure I developed a love of reading. Anyone else old enough to remember the records that accompanied the children's books?? I had my own little record player and I played all of those little 45s and 33s to death!
I usually try to read a book before seeing the movie. There are a few authors I prefer the movies to the books though, and John Grisham is one of those actually.
