Pretty much anything from the 80s or 90s with Tom Hanks in would fit I think!

I am so with you there. My boyfriend, bless him, has realised how much those scenes freak me out so he fast-forwards through them if we're watching something recorded.

I've never seen Rocky Horror in a theatre! It is on my list of things to do.

Nothing super helpful to say, just - internet hug!

I second the idea of a long bath. Take time out for yourself to do something soothing. The world can wait for a couple hours. Also, here is a picture of a corgi because corgis make everything better.

I love Raiders! Great memory. I have seen 3 before and you're totally right - it is dire. I rewatched it recently because I read that Paul McGann was in it (I like him as Doctor Who), but had to give up halfway through. It is srsly srsly bad.

Had a PJ day to myself too - it is the best. Although I desperately need to shower before interacting with humans again. My pro no-ironing tip is to hang the clothes in your bathroom and have a really steamy hot shower. Boom - creases gone!

Ha! Your dad sounds great :) Great movie choice also!

I have Alien 1-3 recorded, so it's possible I'll watch them all if my supply of tea holds out! Eep - Halloween at age 3! I thought I was hardcore for watching the Hellraiser series when I was about 10 (again thanks to my dad). Can you watch Halloween now or does it still scare you?

I am the proud bearer of a nose that is entirely out of proportion to anything else on my face. So - yay weird body stuff? ; b

All fingers, toes and eyes crossed for you! What do you teach? (I do secondary English.)

HAWT - but I always picture him weeping blood.

I'm wrapped up in a blanket watching 'Alien' tonight. First watched with my dad when I was about 12 - we always used to watch scary movies together, so I have a weird nostalgic kind of reaction to it. Tell me your favourite movies to watch with family/friends, or favourite movie memories, people!

Definitely - they really crazied it up for the US version.

Ugh, I am so with you on paying back the 5 dollars thing. I was on a volunteer placement with a kid who'd just left school and was travelling the world on his parents' money. He'd never had a part time job and had contributed no money to his trip. He shamed me in front of a couple to whom I'd leant money earlier in…

It's funny in a sort of nineties British way. It was pitched as the British answer to Friends at the time, but it's not really. I think the episodes might be on YouTube!

Reminded me of this:

Watch the episode of the UK Kitchen Nightmares set in a vegetarian restaurant in France - the way Ramsay deals with the Scottish chef India who comes in towards the end warms my crusty old heart every time!

Skype-relationship with parents here too. It took my folks a while to get used to using it - mostly my mum holds the device so that all I see is her left ear or the wall above her head or something. She also tends to shout 'because I'm really far away'. My dad invariably gets bored during conversations and starts…

That reminds me of my dad - for a while my sister was going through an awful time at work, so he got into the habit of texting her every day, when he hadn't really before. He took pictures of the pet rabbits we had and sent them with little 'Far Side' type captions, so like a picture of one bunny pooping on top of a…
