............................can't think of a title...............

Whoops! I didn't post last night! Too tired to, sorry about that!

So, today we went out to Best Buy (1) to help the grandparents buy a new, spangly TV and (2) to buy random stuff. I got the Chicago soundtrack, which is excellent, considering I'm not into movie soundtracks. But the songs stand alone, and not just withing the context of the movie, so it's more like an album than a soundtrack. I also got Edward Scissorhands and The Ninth Gate for cheap, which was nice! I've never actually seen the whole of ES, because, honestly, Johnny Depp just freaked me out. He's kinda scary looking! As someone who has to very gingerly go around the channels on Halloween night so as not to accidentally come across, say, Frankenstein or Nosferatu, you may understand why he scared me (see more about Halloween below). But, I've always wanted to see it, and it feeds my Johnny Depp addiction, so I'll just keep a stiff upper lip and not scream and dive behind the couch when he comes onscreen. ;)

The Ninth Gate, which I have on VHS but is not the full version (it was on SciFi awhile ago), is pig doots, but it's entertaining pig doots, and it's got Johnny Depp looking dee-lish. A far cry from Edward Scissorhands! :)

Back to the Halloween thing - this past Halloween, we were watching TV, and my mom was lord of the remote (she always is, actually) and so was flipping around channels. She knows I freak out if I even hear the name "Frankenstein" (it's this deep-seated childhood fear of the thing, I just can't kick the fear!), but alas... it was on that night, as was that movie thing about Nosferatu... Shadow of the Vampire? Something like that. Anyways, she stopped on Frankenstein for a moment by accident and I let out this yelp and she cracked up, and then went around the channels again and - completely by accident - stopped on the Nosferatu thing, and I yelped and hopped out of the chair a bit. Needless to say, my loving mother cracked up and then - completely on purpose - would stop on the channels with the two movies to see my reaction. Thanks, mom. ;) (I'm just kidding, it was really funny. I'm not THAT scared by it - goodness, I'm about to turn 18! - but scary movies creep me out!)

Anyways, Best Buy. Actually, I'll continue this post tomorrow, because I've got to get to bed... :/

Cheery bye, Scarlett
