Necklaces, bathrooms and crocheting

Is it just me, or has anyone else ever noticed in movies when someone tears a necklace from someone else's neck that it just comes right off? In countless movies I've seen this done. But never in real life. So I tried pulling off a necklace I was wearing to see if it really is that easy. It's not. It doesn't work at all. It just hurts your neck so I'd advise against trying it yourself.

I saw this in the movie Wolfman today. It was pretty good. I jumped a lot. But it doesn't take much to make me jump. And the movie was really loud so I plugged my ears to make it seem less scary. And I squinted a lot to avoid seeing tendons and whatnot being pulled out of people as the wolfman attacked them. I guess you could say I wasn't seeing or hearing most of the movie...but I still liked it. Overall it was a semi-predictable story with a couple twists and turns that kept your interest because a wolfman was on the loose. Anthony Hopkins sure does know how to play a creepy role.

I think I've seen too many horror movies. If I'm the only one in a large, public bathroom I get freaked out. There are just too many movies with bathroom scenes. The main character will go into a bathroom. It appears that they are alone. Then you hear a dripping noise like water falling onto the tile. The main character turns around and sees a little girl standing there in a nightgown with long hair, obstructing her face. The character thinks "Oh it's just a little girl" then BAM the little girl is evil and dead or a ghost and kills the main character. This is why I get scared when I'm the only one in a bathroom because, for a minute, I think maybe I'm not the only one in there.

I think I need to take up a new hobby. Something different to spice up my days. I was thinking calligraphy. But I'm not sure yet. My mom suggested knitting or crocheting to which I replied no thanks, I'm not an old cat lady. (No offense to anyone who knits or crochets, it's just not the kind of hobby I'd like to pick up at the moment.) Any suggestions would be welcome.
