Synchronicity - Anything happening in your life that is more than a coincidence?

[Aloha]

If you think that's bad, try the engineering department. I decided that I did not want to be surrounded by these people for the rest of my life.

[Suzanne]

you would think that working in an independent bookstore, i wouldn't have to deal with soccer moms and such. it's mind boggling how needy and dumb they can be.
hey did you find out about Horror Fest? i might only go if my friend does.

[Aloha]

I still can't find it. I did a search and up pops movie festivals. Then there's one at Shady Farms, PA. That looked lame.

[Suzanne]

that's strange because i found it on google. i'll look again and let you know.

[Suzanne]

okay i got the name wrong it's actually Horrorfind Weekend, oops sorry.

[Aloha]

I see that you're in Ivoryton, CT. Do you want to share the ride and split the gas? We can take my car from my place. I'm in Norwalk, CT, which is on the way along the coast of CT. You're further away than I am.

I have to see whether I can get my stbx to have my daughter for those days.

[Suzanne]

i don't even know if i can get the day off yet. i didn't know you were in ct, cool. according to my friend christine, this horror thing can get pretty expensive. she had to pay to meet bruce campbell. i might be a dope but what is an "stbx"?

[Aloha]

Soon to be ex.

[Suzanne]

oh, i see. well let's play it by ear and i'll let you know. i should give you my e-mail address, scooper0314@gmail.com

[Aloha]

I'll send you an e-mail, Suzanne.

[Aloha]

I'm logging off. Time to put a hammer and screw driver to work. I'm going to be tool girl today.

[Suzanne]

i look forward to it!!

[Suzanne]

i'm at work too, we're both bad. talk later..

[Scott]

If you mean the Horrorfest that releases 6 or 7 mostly mediocre, supposedly too extreme films a year, it was near me earlier this year, but I couldn't get anyone to go with me so I didn't bother.

[Aloha]

That bad, huh? I guess it's not worth the expense and time. It's about a 5 hour drive from me.

[Scott]

Not when they come to DVD a few months later anyway.

[Suzanne]

no horrorfind weekend. it's a bit different. you can meet authors and actors from the world of horror. for example jack ketchum will be there. i've seen some of those horror fest movies, some were pretty bad. any word on that new movie "last exorcism"? reviews?

[Aloha]

So...what's the verdict. Is it worth going to? Hurry up so I can start putting together shelves. :o)

[Suzanne]

i'm not sure. i tend to never be able to make up my mind!!

[Aloha]

It just occurred to me, I'm next door to NYC. Everything goes to NYC. I bet there are horror conventions in NYC. Why drive 5 hours when I can hop on a train and be there in 1. I'll have to check when I'm back at the computer again.

[Branden]

My girlfriend and I were thinking about going to Horrofind Weekend (in Gettysburgh, PA, on the Sept. 3-5 weekend, right?). It's about a 3.5 hour drive for us, but we're not certain yet because her mom might be coming out to visit that weekend. You guys should let me know if you're planning on going.

[Aloha]

OK. Let me do some research as to whether it's available in NYC.

[Suzanne]

hey branden
i'm still pondering. it may be hard for me to take that time off. unless it was just for the day.

[Eileen]

That does sound like allot of fun. I'm about 5 hours away. The problem is my son starts school the 6th.

[Suzanne]

they never really do anything the first day, let him skip it!! lol

[Aloha]

I'm the only person I know who would want to go to a horror convention. I don't want to hang out there all day by myself. If I know I could hang out with somebody (ies), I'll have more of an incentive to make preparations.

[Suzanne]

i would love to go but i'm not sure about getting off from work and of course i am always short on funds!!

[jb]

I'm a Scorpio.

[Aloha]

That explains the guns and the handcuffs! :o)

As I said, I do not let signs rule who I'm friends with. I analyze the patterns in my experiences. If there's a pattern, I want to let it happen. I don't want to let my expectations affect it.

[MJ]

I have been to lots of horror conventions. They are always fun and the stuff they sell is great but I never have as much fun as I assume I will.

Ok, onto mine. I was born on my dad's birthday Nov 13th. 13 is my lucky #, my name starts with an M which is the 13th letter of the alphabet.

Me, my sister and both of our parents have 7 letters in our first name. My other sister and brother who were the black sheep don't.

I used to wake up at 3:11 every single day. Not a day would go by where I wouldn't wake at this time.

[Aloha]

I know when to call you. LOL

13 is my lucky number, and M is the letter that haunts me. 7 is also another of my lucky number, although I didn't mention it. Actually, it would be part of 17, my other lucky number.

I didn't know that about you
My lucky number is 13 also
I like to play the lottery on every Friday 13th. The last 4 times actually the only 4 times my numbers came in was on the 13th

[Aloha]

I knew we were kindred spirits, Bobbie. :o)
