It could have been my birthday yesterday and you wouldn’t have been able to discern otherwise. My friends spoiled me rotten.  I knew we we’d be hanging out, and I knew that I wanted to dress up, but I was under the impression nobody else would.  But they did. And they took me to a haunted house and we waited in a line where nobody else was dressed up, and when we went in I screamed and giggled like a girl, squishing poor Tom and Tyler’s arms and hands like they were jelly while Rue held up the rear and kept our traveling party whole. And with my eyes closed I knew I didn’t want to be anywhere else but spending my Halloween like this.  Dressed up as Hilde.  Laughing.  My friends fighting off the silly scary creatures in the haunted house. Afterwards we came back and Jei took pictures (which I will upload ASAP) and we curled on the couch to watch Interview with the Vampire even though they’d probably all hate it.  I fell asleep, exhausted, but so happy I could float and I’ve just been in this mystic state of euphoria ever since.  For you that read this, I love you so much and thank you for a rather memorable Halloween.
