Monsters? Boring!

Sharknado? You've got to be joking.
Sharknado? Meh.

Don’t get me wrong – I dig vampires, and werewolves are OK. Every now and then, a mummy doesn’t hurt.

But Frankenstein? Snore.

The Swamp Thing? Puhlease!

Sharktopus? WTF?

I just can’t watch monster movies (despite my love of horror flicks). Aliens don’t fall into the “monster” category, and killers, even slightly supernatural ones like Michael Myers and Jason Voorhees just unnerve me – I don’t do slasher flicks either.

Movie monsters, though…they just bore me silly. I know that people like watching monster movies for the cheesiness factor, but as much as I dig B-movie cheese, the monsters just annoy the hell out of me.

Even poor old Godzilla doesn’t make the cut. Yup, I’m heartless.

      Let me know how it goes. Despite never being able to watch more than a couple of minutes of monster drivel, I’m always entertained by retellings!

    I’m totally with you on that, although I also hate horror movies. I get the worst nightmares, just like a child! I am going to watch sharknado one day though, preferably when I’m really drunk, just to see how a tornado picks up a great white. You know, just in case it ever happens. I want to be prepared.

      You know, you have a point there. One can never be too prepared for a shark-meets-tornado emergency 😀

Hello,

I’m Nova

I have no “personal brand.” I’m not a girl boss, I’m not an influencer, and I don’t aspire to be powerful, inspiring, or rich. I probably can’t teach you anything, and there’s a good chance that there’s nothing at all of interest or use to you here. This is just where I come to talk about the random bits and pieces that make up my quiet life as a sober woman in her 40s. I’m engaged to the love of my life, have six (yes, SIX) indoor pets, and spend a lot of time gardening and hunting for thrift treasures. I also study classical voice (I’m a lyric coloratura soprano) and am deeply interested in all things spiritual and paranormal. Right now I’m trying to recover from career burnout and even out my personal energy, but my eventual goal is to become a medium and shamanic healer, using music to remind humans of the things that actually matter: connection, community, and loving all living things as though they were our own children. I may or may not talk about all of these things here (and sometimes all at once). Welcome!
