So, you know that show Ghost Hunters on SciFi? You know how it’s totally not scary or shocking in the least bit? Ok – well, I’m just about terrified of it. I mean, I love it. I watch it any Wednesday night I can actually remember it’s on – BUT! only when someone else is in the room with me, and the remote is next to me at all times in case there is a need for a quick channel change (like that time when you could totally see a figure hanging over the lighthouse railing looking down the stairwell at the camera – Or that other one where the bed comforter so moved on it’s own while someone was sleeping in it! – OR that time when they caught creepy organ music playing in that wild west museum – OR! —-have to stop now, why am I thinking these things right now – ahhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!
ok…better…
What was my point?
Oh yeah – ok – so you know how you now know that I’m a total nut job that is scared of crazy non scary things? Well! I was watching Ghost Hunters tonight and it’s on for a couple of hours starting at 8 – but Mike is heading out to work at 9 so I’m only going to watch 1 episode. All goes well, and then 9 o’clock comes. Mike has the remote and I tell him he has to change it because I can’t watch this show on my own. He says – what channel do you want? So, I’m thinking – least scariest channel out there? How about the Food Network? How can food scare me? So! The channel changes – and what do I see – it’s Alten Brown – ok, not scary. But wait that doesn’t look like the set of his show – oh, ok, he’s on a boat – oh, he’s cooking squid – oh! there is a GIANT SQUID OUT THE WINDOW STARING AT US GETTING READY TO EAT OUR SOULS!
In case you haven’t figured it out – me? Also terrified of giant squid.
Oh, and just because I must have pissed off some TV god at some point- as I’m screaming and Mike is changing the channel randomly – he stops on something random and what is it? The tail end of some commercial in which a cartoon fish EATS a person.
Not my night.

DUDE. That lighthouse one? In St.Augustine? Scares the ever living shit out of me.
Ok. I’m not sleeping tonight.
