Feb. 3rd, 2010 07:44 pmThings I have thought about posting in the last few days but never got around to:
- So. I finished reading Under the Dome the other day.
( spoilers for Under the Dome and also for The Mist )
- I have been watching a lot of Twin Peaks lately. And okay, I realize that I am 20 years too late to be saying this but,
Dear the people who made Twin Peaks,
I know it's dramatic and pretty but I'm sorry. We just don't have thunderstorms like that in western Washington. No, really. (And despite the crazy geography in the pilot, the trees do imply western Washington.) Also, unless it's July, it really ought to be raining more. You made a really excellent show but stuff like that is distracting.
Love,
A Nitpicky Washingtonian
- Related to that last, you know how when you're kinda obsessing about a particular fannish source and you go through your music collection to find stuff that has the right feel to go with your fannish obsession. My brain has apparently decided that Twin Peaks means I should listen to Poe's Haunted album on repeat. Which, in turn, makes me want to reread House of Leaves. It feels kind of appropriate, somehow. Twin Peaks also makes me want to watch Dune but I can put that down to Kyle McLachlan. Also, that impulse is silly and should probably not be indulged.
Rereading House of Leaves is probably a good idea. I think it's been long enough since the last time that I've forgotten sufficient of the book to read it again. And I'm between books now that Under the Dome is over.
I wonder where I put that...
