Day 21: Something that scared you as much as it fascinated you

I watched the original The Exorcist movie when I was quite young

Have you seen any of the REC movies? They're not too bad.

 

[goldytheGoldfish]

The book is great

It sounds like the plot for Upstream Color. Have you seen that one?

Day fifteen: Something that made you sympathize with a character you'd dislike in real life

More Than You'll Ever Know by Katie Gutierrez has one of the most flawed characters I've read. The book revolves around a woman who's a bigamist living a double life. Her second "husband" ends up dead after discovering her lie. I felt bad for every character in the book, even Lore, which I definitely wasn't expecting.

In the Bedroom?

 

[goldytheGoldfish]

I'll be honest, I was too scared to read this book. More than one friend told me about it and I didn't think I could cope lol.

You're scared of a kid's book? Hmm. Tell me about your mother.

Day twelve: Something that's underrated

Asylum was one of Natasha Richardson's last films. I'm not sure why the critics hated it. I thought it was an interesting exploration of obsession.

I'll raise you one. I can't believe you haven't seen it though.

Day eleven: Something you loved as a child and still love just as much

The Chrestomanci series by Diana Wynne Jones holds a special place in my heart and it always will. I was slightly fixated on these books and the paperback set of the first two was certainly looking worse for wear after I read it three times within a few months. I reread the series as an adult and I love them still. The first time I read Witch Week, I took to keeping a diary again just so I could start writing in code like the little misanthropic brat in the book But The Magicians of Caprona is probably my favorite. Italian magical families and a kid who can talk to cats, what's not to like?

I've got $7.00. Would you like a copy? https://www.ebay.com/p/468161?iid=364781277387

This is in the news. What might you say in a situation like that? Opinions?
"Unfortunately for her, you can't do that, prosecutors said. The 45-year-old woman was arrested March 6 and faces felony theft charges accusing her of a crime that cost the gas station nearly $28,000."

I hope you have a better day today.

Same.

 

[goldytheGoldfish]

It could be something that was an eye-opener, maybe the protagonist was from a different walk of life than you. Or something that challenged some preconceived notions you had before you read/watched/listened to said work. Documentaries usually do the trick for me.

Mine pays for itself.

Day twenty-four: Free Day (something that you just really want to share)


The Crimson Petal and the White is a rare book for me, very long but good enough to warrant it. It was immersive and engrossing. Sometimes it felt as if I was peering in a window and spying on the characters. There was an adaptation with Romola Garai and she was great as always but it was unable to do justice to the book unfortunately.

 

[goldytheGoldfish]

You got to work on not being so obvious, c_s

Day 24: Free Day

This book was a cornerstone of my childhood. I loved the art and illustrations and can't begin to guess how many times I read it through cover to cover.

Day 24: Free Day
@Tigobitties98 said something in the Face thread the other day; Hair grows out or can be re-colored. It's one of the safest, least permanent forms of self expression. While I agree, and have had my hair most of the colors of the rainbow, my favorite type of self expression is on the other side of that coin.

Tattoos. Near permanent, ever present, and a big decision to make. At first. After a while, it becomes more natural, and more akin to doodling on yourself... But while each subsequent tattoo might not hold as much meaning as my first two do, I still love them all the same. I'm up to.... 8 birds now.

Body art.
Love it to death.

 

[goldytheGoldfish]

Can't see it very well. Can you get it a little closer?

 

[goldytheGoldfish]

Aww, it's time to fuck. Poop. I've been tricked.

Thank you! She's my latest one and she's so damn cute

@Tigobitties98 @vagrantx

I'm not a tattoo artist, so, I can only tell you what google tells me. A firm no, unfortunately.

 

[goldytheGoldfish]

Will you spare me a lecture if I tell you I already know what I want to share?

Day 25: Something that had a perfect ending
