: About Me

As far back as I can remember and that's a lot of remembering; I have enjoyed reading and writing. Before I could read I enjoyed looking at the pictures. Recently, I decided to write for others to read and get a peek into my world. "I live in my own little world, but it's ok everybody knows me there." Not original but, true.
Helium seems like a great place to start to share my writings and I think it will be a unique learning experience.

My absolute favorite past-time is going to the movies. I really enjoy horror and gore, foreign and independent films.
Most of the time I go alone because hey, most people are doing the 9-5 thing while I'm enjoying a film. I must get to the movies in time for the previews and opening credits. If I don't see the previews; I feel gypped. I must sit through closing credits. It's all a part of the movie-going-experience.

Sometimes, people miss important tidbits of a film by leaving the theater before closing credits end.
I am interested in who directs films and not only who stars in them. To me, the director is the heart and soul of a film. Let's face it, most actors are over-rated anyway unless, of course; they're a De Niro or a Pacino.

9 of 12

I knew my marriage was over when after a four month separation and going back - my husband had not changed his behavior. For the entire separation he continued his affair - getting deeper involved instead of using the time wisely to end things the way that he should have. Our five year marriage had been a tumultuous one. Lots of arguing and bad behavior that was unhealthy. I went back after the separation because I really wanted it to work and felt hopeful that it would, but unlike him I had not grown emotionally attached to someone outside the marriage and felt I could not live without th...
