Pretend Photographer Time!

First and foremost I am a writer, but I also like to be a photographer.  I've recently moved to Charleston, WV and so far I like it here.

Here's a few reasons why I like WV, I still like Philly, but I'm enjoying WV a little bit more

1.  I noticed that there's no emission stickers on the cars - less money out of my pocket

2. Car insurance is 3xs less here - I'm not exaggerating!

3.  This isn't a plus or a minus it's just an observation, I don't know if I'd get used to how friendly everyone is down here.  Everyone waves and speaks.  I used to think it was because they've mistaken me for someone else, but nope, they're just being....nice.  Weird.

My mom and I keep wondering why we haven't run into rush hour, until we realized that in a city that doesn't have more than a million people living in it, that THAT was rush hour.

4.  I think I've seen one scribbling of grafitti
Now onto the sights, I got a few pictures, and I got a lot of stares from people.  I've NEVER seen a stream before, so sue me.  Yes, I took a picture of it.  I don't know if it was the PA plates, or the fact that I was taking pictures of a stream, that seemed to scream outsider, but it didn't stop people from staring at me.  But I really like that stream.

#AHS: Cult - Still No Cult

Image
I know.  I know.  There's only been two episodes and I'm already pretty annoyed with American Horror Story.  Here are some suggestions as to what I would do. 1. Two-hour premiere for the first night if things are going to be this slow.  Or back to back night premieres.  Yes, we've had two gruesome deaths but we're not sure what killed them or we're supposed to question ourselves as to who killed them. 2. Shorter seasons .  I'd be fine with a shorter season if it meant more action faster. I guess my millenial brain doesn't like the pace. So far Sarah Paulson is scared of stuff her wife doesn't see and Winter is a terrible baby sitter.  Yawn. This episode we pick up right where the last episode ended with Ally screaming.  Which is a good portion of the first episode.  And there's still no cult.  We knew who the Coven, the Freak Show, the Hotel, the Roanoke Nightmare, Asylum and Murder House were.  We knew where all of those things we

Friday Flick: Coherence

Image
This is one of my low key favorite movies.  I say low key because it was rough, rough around the edges, it may be more enjoyable as a short story.  But the fact that it was low budget was a plus in my opinion because it forces the cast and crew to be more creative and not go for the flashy-flashy.  You have you to be a master story teller to convey your vision with very little.  The story doesn't leave this one house which can come off as very hard do without making the story very stagnant. NOW, I will say there are some times where I think the story fell off for a little while but I think it was a story that had a clear middle and end and I like those kinds of stories. If you have read my earlier posts you'll know that I like stories that utilize the idea of multiverse theories.  That's why I liked Stranger Things SO much.  And it's also why I'm a little afraid of the Hadron Collider, but I digress. I think this movie was great because it wasn't just abou
