Halloween Erotica

Dear Sillies,

It's beginning to look a lot like Halloween. 

Have you seen Bernie Sanders? I seem to have scared him away. Drats.

Have a tantalizing Halloween!

Pumpkin Patchwork and I've Grown Taller!

Dear Sillies,

Look, I grew! 

We adventured to a pumpkin patch and corn maze this weekend. As you can see, I'm almost six feet tall now! Woohoo. 

JT picked out some pumpkins.

He likes to be silly. I like to be silly. I like it when he likes to be silly and when he likes my silliness.

But the corn maze put us on a three-year plan. See, we didn't make it to the proper exit last year. We got out at the opposite end. This year, we ended up exiting back at the entrance - kinda not the goal. So, next year, our third, we'll strive for making it to the exit. Oy. It's not easy. But so fun! Have you successfully navigated a corn maze?


As you can see, the weather was splendid.
I hope you're enjoying pumpkin season.
Love and sweetness to you!

Blonde, One Degree From Stardom

Dear Sillies,

How's October treating you? Wait, October? How did that happen?Well, Halloween's around the corner, and -hopefully- that's fun to anticipate. For now, I have another fun thing to share.

Do you have Netflix? If so, have you seen "Blonde"? It's quite heavy, but very well done. Ana de Armas does an incredible job portraying a tortured, overly objectified Marilyn Monroe.


Here's a firsthand account by an actor in the movie. He's smiling (in a somewhat devious manner) to the lead actress' (Ana de Armas') left, to your right as you look at the screen. 

   "The movie is fictional, and extremely dark and depressing.   But my scene was easy to watch.   I didn't know I would be sitting next to the lead actress.   She was nice.   She introduced herself when she came on the scene to sit next to me.   I just said hello and waited for direction.   I will say Ana de Armas was really focused on set.   She didn't seem to break character between takes.  It was also cool watching Adran Brody close in person.  I didn't get to talk to him.    
   It was cool when I was asked to go on the stage for the second part of the scene.   They also asked us to smoke herbal cigarettes on stage.  I refused.   I told them I didn't smoke.   I didn't think It would look good.   They didn't push it.  They ended up cutting the takes with the other actors smoking anyway.   I also got fed Prime Rib for lunch.  We were treated well.  
   Brad Pitt is one of the producers of this film.  He wasn't there. The film was shot in 2019.  It took a while to get released.   One day I just saw it pop up on Netflix." 

That someone I quoted is my brother, Jonathan. Cool, right?! And good on him for refusing to smoke the herbs. And good on production for respecting his refusal to smoke the herbs. But too bad he didn't meet Brad Pitt. 

Let me know if you see or saw the movie, along with your thoughts.

Be well, friends.
A sweet October to you!
