Late nights and horror movies....

Really do not mix. And it wasn't even that scary of a film....

Stayed up late on Saturday to watch "30 Days of Night"...vampires in Alaska. How could you go wrong? I want to go to Alaska and I like vampire movies (bummer then that they had to film it in New Zealand).

Good movie....except that by the time it was over it was after midnight and Jasper kept climbing up the back of the bed to pounce on me. I also had to use the bathroom....bad. My hallway is like 2 feet long at the most between my room and the bathroom but dang if I didn't turn on every freaking light along my path (well..the living room light was actually out of my way but I wasn't taking any chances!) I peeked behind the shower curtain, feeling like an idiot, and then couldn't bring myself to shut the bathroom door. Can anyone say pathetic? I even had to stay up and watch a few minutes of Disney-type fare before feeling confident enough to switch off the bedside lamp!

Jasper is definately not allowed to watch vampire movies anymore as he spent the next 2 hours chewing on me (same thing goes for Animal Planet....I swear he gets ideas from watching the big jungle cats!) Finally, around 4 am I drifted off, still glancing nervously at the dark hallway, watching for a darker-than-dark shadow to make itself known. Jasper, completely clueless, continued to run in and out of the room with no concern for my stressed out state...insensitive male!

Got up at 10 the next morning actually wanting to watch that movie again, just to prove it wouldn't scare me again....so I did. It didn't spook me this time. In fact I found myself really enjoying it enough to consider owning someday once the used copies go on sale....

I am a glutton for punishment I guess.
