Freedom 90

St. Dracula (the patron saint of Halloween that I made up today) has sent me numerous blessings in preparation for the fast-approaching season.

Ding Dong The Witch Is Dead

1. Mallory is coming. I'll have a great friend from home in the Springs for a week beginning this Thursday (just in time to start Halloween right).

2. I've received a standing invitation to watch Heroes and, much like St. Dracula hisself, I can't go anywhere without being explicitly invited (I also don't like mirrors, though I love garlic... hmm...).

3. Gretchen is dead. That's right my woman-loving car is totalled. It took a month for the verdict to come down, but it has been made and she's gone. Hot stuff. The settlement will pay off Gretchen and give me money left over for a down payment and trip to Boston. Turns out this whole thing was serendipitous after all.

Prepare yourselves for my favorite month. It's going to rock the flesh off from your bones.

Only 48 more hours remain in my candy corn fast, then the blood hits the fan (like in the movie Carrie) and I force you, once again, to love everything I do, or to be bored out of your mind for an extended period of time - speaking of which, tonight is Heroes which means tomorrow will be an all-Heroes post. Eat my ectoplasm.

Love Halloween like I do? Let me know what your reason for the season is and how you'll be spending it - disembowelling your loved ones, I hope.

will be spending Halloween either working or handing out candy to children who will not come. For some reason, my cul de sac, in spite of residing directly between two light residential zones, has received a total of 2 trick or treaters over 3 years.

So in effect, I'm either working or playing Fallout 3, since that comes out October 28th. I <3 Fallout.

Also, damn typos.

wow, I haven't even given Halloween much thought...it's crazy here because it still seems like summer and waaay too early to be thinking about it. I have had the urge lately to watch Sleepy Hollow though...

I just watched a Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince trailer... I hope it's better than the last one!

And unless anything changes drastically in the next two weeks, I will be spending my halloween making pumpkin soup, mulled cider, and giving candy to kids dressed like cinderella.
