What a wonderful meandering through these different words and there meanings and how they capture the ‘liminalness’ (I made that word up) of twilight.

I’d never heard of the word, Crepuscular before — so thank you for enlightening me. :)

Glad you like the meandering, it's definitely how I travel. Add to that perhaps the "vespertine," my new favorite word I learned on this journey, for the crepuscular more committed to the post-sunset side of things.

What a *great* word! Crepuscular. I also enjoyed the Twilight Zone clips. That one at the end with Billy Mumy (and Chloris Leachman!) looked very unnerving.

It’s weirdly biological sounding and makes me thinks of snails… I feel like I need to watch/rewatch all the Zones!
