Sex & Shenanigans

Salems Lot … think I read it in the 90s sometime as a teen…. I remember the general story …. But not as much the in depth of it.

I’m on a journey to read his entire library from start to finish.

I’ve been doing this off-handedly for years … I re-read It in 2019 …. But now I’m using a website and just going diligently through the books in order of publication.

I’m skipping ones I’ve re-read recently… like the Stand … which I also re-read… I think in 2018? ….

Now that I’ve read the Dark Tower series I can feel a little more connectivity in his stories than I did when I read them as a teen.


Plus re-readings books I read as a kid is always fun cuz I always pick up on some nuance or reference to something I didn’t understand when I read it the first time and now with adult brain I get a greater understanding and appreciation for the book.
'adult brain' - 🤔🙄
 
It’s weird going back and rereading stuff I devoured as a teen/early 20’s. Some things are just cringey, others I’m like “how did I not see how rich this was?” Others “how in the hell did I think this was deep?”
I don’t care for re-reading stuff usually, but I will re watch movies or old tv shows way too much.

And I am often shocked to discover something I loved as a kid, and now see as an adult and realize I was a bigger idiot than even I thought I was. 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤣🤣🤣

It’s usually I’ve found an audio book of it through a library I use and listen to it while driving, I’m on the road a decent amount T so it eats the miles up. But, yeah, I’ve gone back and watched movies I loved when younger and was “WTF?”
 
I don't want to.... must refrain from bad taste joke.... self control, Brenda! Self control! You can do this... resist the urge...

I can't not say it!!! Are those your classmates?

Please forgive me Hottie... I'm weak and when a stupid joke comes to me.. it has got to come out!
No, they’re Apisto’s relatives.
As they say, ‘you can’t choose your family’ …
 
Never be humiliated about mispronouncing a word you learn by reading! It just means you learned it on your own and that is something to be proud of.

And I pronounced chaos CHay-os for years.
I genuinely thought misled was pronounced my-zzld. 😞
