For those hording toilet paper

After writing Chamber of Horrors (still having trouble with the blog entry due to some sort of site issues where my written work doesn't show up, but oh well...) tonight, I realized I'm hitting that exhaustion phase of the month. I've been writing reviews for practically all the films I've watched this month. Some two films a day. It's my own fault, really. This obsession with image and word I now have since conducting this blog for the last few years. I was almost relieved watching Universal's The Mummy on Turner Classics tonight because I had written about it last year and I could just sit back without composing thoughts and words in my head/mind reflecting what I feel about it. This passion for writing doesn't leave. It is an itch I must scratch. Movies are a passion for a so many of us and the blog/website on the internet superhighway affords us an option to put word to a format that can be seen by those with similar interests. But I think October for many of us eventually leads to burn out. It has about eclipsed me. I also just moments ago finished Halloween with audio commentary from John Carpenter and a delightfully enthusiastic Jamie Lee Curtis. She just analyzed the film while an amused John listened with affection at her constant praise of all that was happening onscreen (while also obsessing with candy glass and a door knob gaff). Again it was almost a relief to not have to indulge in long-winded reviews I so often churn out.
