Wow.

It was clear, just a tiny bit hazy at the horizon when I woke up. That was about fifteen minutes ago. Now I can barely see outside my window for the solid wall of white fog.

Both pretty and creepy at the same time. I just hope there aren't Things slithering in there.

Fog is to Silent Hill fans what gunshot/explosion sounds are to PTSD war vets. Everytime I see fog or wind up in one, I fucking freeze for a moment. Hahaha... I was driving back from Sumter yesterday at 1am when I suddenly found myself enveloped in fog. My instinct knee-jerk response was to slam on the brakes -- and I almost did, but regained composure in time. Still, though... Fog... (shudder)

Driving in fog is no love at all. Last time I went up to Kentucky, in the mountains there was fog and driving rain up in the mountains. Couldn't see three feet in front of you and the roads were twisty and slippery. Didn't help that the natives were cheerfully plowing forward at speed limit, either.

Also, am I the only one who looks at Sumter and sees an /incredibly/ creepy little town? Like Silent Hill creepy, or Derry creepy, or the place from American Gothic. It's the kind of place where you expect to walk around the corner one day and find a diseased skinless dog chewing on the head of someone.
