Full Moon on Christmas

why pretend you're showing us the moon? it's way more impressive to just tell us you finally beat galaga and took a screenshot.

 

It could have peaked last night, you're right. My astrologer said the FM will cause tension to build and come to a head on the 25th. But I'm not 100% sure when the FM actually peaks. So it is likely that I was wrong.

 

It sure looked full here in Connecticut this past night.

 

daylight full moon happening now

 

Yup...

 

All I see is mist

 

I read that novella, and it was honestly one of the most disturbing pieces of literature I have ever read. Certain scenes from it randomly recur in my mind.

Me too. I think i was around 15 or something when I read it (after 2 other Stephen King books). This one had the most impact

 

Thank god we're not hosting Christmas dinner this year. We did Thanksgiving and it was terrible. We're going over to my girlfriend's aunt's house for dinner and that's it. This year I just can't wait for the holidays to be over.

 

Same here...

 

The flying faces

 

Glad I am not the only one. I have read most of Stephen King's work and I think the Mist disturbed me the most. I can't think of many others that really scared me. His short stories tend to be more frightening, honestly.

 

Have you read "The Raft" ...

 

Yes! That one fucked with me, too.

 

Makes one ponder going for a lake swim ever again...

 

I'm with Themnax on this one. Get your family to stand outside and howl at the moon for an hour or two.

 

Opened gifts with the gf's family today. The boyfriend didn't even get her mom a gift. I didn't expect one, and I didn't get one. I sure as hell didn't get him one. Life is too short and my wallet is too empty to buy gifts for people I don't like.

I got a card from my sister today too. She said she misses me but couldn't handle all the negativity and drama, and hopes I'll call her soon. Not sure what drama she's referring to. I guess me taking issue with having to raise her kid for her for 4 years was too much to bear. Poor thing. I feel like a scrooge this year but she can hold her breath waiting for a call from me. I sent a gift for the kids and that's it.

I'm just tired of being taken advantage of and watching other people be taken advantage of. This is why I don't like people. I'm looking forward to the holidays being over and I hate that all the bullshit this year ruined my usual cheeriness this time of year.

 

^ let's just blame the moon

 

I'm sorry. Family drama is the worst. It sounds like you're really needing space from your sister right now. Good on you for taking care of yourself.
