Tis The Season

 

This is my favorite time of the year. It is Halloween month..how can one go wrong there. I have always been a ghoul for this holiday. It is always fun to let loose and have fun being something that can be outside your comfort zone.

It is always fun seeing what people come up with to see who or what they dress up for the holiday. Just wish it is longer.

Being normal is no fun. Be yourself and be comfortable with your uniqueness. If you are average like everyone else then you are lost in sea of the norm. 

Halloween plus sugar equals cranky child

It is Halloween and it is my favorite holiday of the year. I think that maybe it is that people are (suppose)scared or the fact that you never know what is lurking around the corner. I am hoping that I can get my wife to watch World of the Worlds tonight. I am thinking GOOD LUCK!!!

My little Aqua Girl had a party at 3k today and she was a princess like she wanted, because she was going to be a butterfly. So wanted to be a princess, because we compromised so she was a princess for the party and tonight (as long as we are still going) going to be a butterfly.

After school it was obvious she must have had to much candy today. She usually does not get much from the sugar department. Aqua Girl was a cranky little girl and did not get lunch today. She was screaming because my wife wanted to hold her on her lap. UGGGH

If this attitude keeps up in looks like no trick-or-treating for my little beast. I guess we will see if she is better after a much needed nap this afternoon.

I hope that everyone has a HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!!!!

Stroke of 10- Spooktoberfest

I decided to take be a part of a flash fiction contest for my favorite holiday.  He is a link to the rules that one of the wonderful hosts posted.I did have fun writing my story:) Enjoy.

As the bubbling white foam what boiling over for the rue from the cauldron that an old and hunchbacked man was looking over it with diligence. He was making sure that everything was set for tonight, it is Halloween after all. He was a lonely man living in Randleton, MA. 

He said to his calico cat,”This is a Halloween that nobody is town will ever forget.” He carved a dozen jack-o-lanterns with the finest razor that he could find. He made some elaborate faces that anyone would be aww struck to see. 

Inside the dark damp house, it has not been dusted is years or maybe decades. There were co-webs hanging from every corner of the house. The old broken down man had to add one more incident to complete the potion that would take over this town. The last incident can be added at the stroke of 10 o’clock AM.

He adjusted his spectacles while he looked at his pocket watch. It is 957, so he figured to get a key ingredient for the potion.

Hestepped up his ladder to his cupboard and reached ion the door. He pulled out a bottle.He looked at his and read the letter. "Yep it is the right stuff" he said out loud. I was vodka.. It was the perfect why to release his ghost and demons on such a great day. Who doesn't like a great mixed drink for the holidays. 

Then tonight he will be see the kids being accompanied by their parent(s) in sight of some candy or some tricks.

Happy Halloween

I love Halloween. It is by far my favorite holiday of the year. I have Halloween and my wife has Christmas :) I take a vacation day every year for this date. Watching a scarey movie can only do so much. A person mind can do so much more. If you want to really experience the thrill of Halloween, then pick up a horror book. If you are not sure where to start. Here are some recommendations:

• Anything by Stephen King that does not have a car on the cover
• Silence of the Lambs by Thomas Harris
•  Darkly Dreaming Dexter by Jeff Lindsay 
• I am Legend by Richard Matheson 

I hope that everyone has a thrilling and fun filled Halloween:)
