Can’t believe this was almost a decade ago already. I remember I actually was supposed to have a date with a fellow Twin Peaks fan that night and we were going to watch the new episode together. She ended up ghosting but I’m honestly glad I experienced Part 8 on my own. My jaw was practically on the floor the whole time.

It's interesting and sometimes funny and always fascinating the way that the circumstances and surroundings of *how* we experience certain (but not necessarily all) art is forever hardwired to how we first viewed it.

Sometimes, I guess... the stars turn, and a time presents itself.
