Happy Halloween!!

Happy Halloween to everyone out there in cyberland! I do love this holiday. ^_^ Costumes are so much fun! Though, I will say that it never made sense for me to really love Halloween, since I don't really like candy much... But, Halloween comes with costumes and cute little kids, apple cider and hay rides, haunted houses and piles of dried leaves to jump in... Yeah, it's a nice holiday.



Fall is finally upon us here in the Mid-West. I do miss living in the North East, fall comes earlier there and is just so... pretty. And I miss living in a place where I know where to go. My yearly trip to the graveyard to sing to the dead peoples, the best haunted house in the world- if for no other reason than because I know everyone who works there- the old lady that always set aside a 'kids room' at her Halloween party so we could come in and have cider and popcorn balls and candied apples without being disturbed by the 70 year old people dressed in "sexy costumes"... Halloween was never boring in Connecticut, I must say that.



Well, I'll be spending the night at my friend's house, helping her hand out candy to all the munchkins and entertain her family. It won't be quite as good at the disturbing- yet still sweet- old lady, but it'll have to do.

You know, I always wanted to be like that old lady when I was younger. She just seemed like she must have had such a fun life, and that she wasn't going to let a little thing like age stop her from enjoying life. I'd like to think that I'll be like that when I'm older.

So this year, I am dedicating Halloween to the little old lady with the best apple cider in the world and a spirit that's no older than 20. May we all be as happy and carefree as her this year.

Happy Halloween, y'all! Stay fresh!
