Non-food cravings

I'm a movie buff, like, seriously, I have an entertainment room with one wall covered floor to ceiling with movies. My husband and I don't have cable, we have Netflix on demand and watch that every night that we don't watch a DVD that we already own (and sometimes we're so lazy that we'll just download a movie rather than get off of the couch and walk the two feet to grab one). So how does this relate to pregnancy? My movie choices have changed. I'm having Disney cravings. All I can think about is curling up to watch a classic princess flick: Snow White, Cinderella, Sleeping Beauty; I want a happily ever after (the fact that I read Cinderella to my son at least once a day might also have something to do with it).

Before my son was born, my husband and I watched a lot of horror movies, he's a HUGE horror fan and I thoroughly enjoy the undead: Zombies & Vampires (Hello Angel!!). I've met George Romero and Ken Foree has a crush on me (no, seriously, I've met him several times and he ALWAYS hits on me, my one celebrity claim to fame [he was the hero in the original Dawn of the Dead, for those of you not in the know ;) ]). Starting in pregnancy, but really after #1 was born, I can't watch them anymore. Part of this is with a child to protect, scary movies have an addition layer of terror to them. But I think it's more than just that. I can still handle a good drama, I just don't want to watch lots of people die for ridiculous reasons. I don't know, maybe it's me getting older, but I'm going to blame it on the mother hormones.
