I remember being annoyed in Dune 2 by that constant vibrating sinister sound. Nosferatu sounds like that. Maybe take your earbuds if you're a fogey like me.
I didn't care for Bill Skarsgard as the vamp. Too wheezy, gross, no swagger or dash like Gary Oldman's character. He kind of reminded me of a Harkonnen.
I liked Nosferatu. I haven't seen any of the other Nosferatus, but I found it very similar to Bram Stroker's Dracula. Visually chilling, gory bits, great performances by Depp and Hoult.
In general fiction I really loved Demon Copperhead, and for non-fiction I read Empire of Pain. So I rounded out the year with drug stories. Historical romance and hard drugs. Happy Holidays all!
The Chargers are having a good year, which always gets me fired up. So you know. Can't have it all, but I'm going to take the wins when I get them. Hope you are doing okay out there! xoxox
Daughter 2 is going to a local CC. She doesn't drive so she's taking advantage of free public transport available to students 18 & under. I love that she's seeing more of the world her way.
I need to focus on what's going well in my life so here's a little self-boost. I got a job at a school I like. It's teaching-adjacent, lots of 1:1 tutoring + some office work. I'm enjoying it so far.
The Wenches are musing about ghosts and ghosts stories because it's October, Halloween, and why not? Take a look and see what you think! wordwenches.com/ghost-stories/
