After last halloween I decided that it was going to be the last one I spent sittin' around the house watchin' horror movies by my lonesome. As fun as it is to rock out to horrors finest, I needed to do something different... I needed to get out of the house. I started thinkin' up different things, with the hopes that I'd stumble upon something worthwhile. And then one day when I was roamin' the vast internet, I found a small company based out of Cali that sold special effects equipment on a small scale for those on a budget. And for $100 you could buy 50 squibs (exploding blood pack) & remote detonator. So I thought it'd be fun to go out wanderin' the streets on halloween carryin' a bag full of candy with squibs strapped under my shirt. I was goin' to have one of the guys I work with and his little brother come out with me. The plan was that I'd be trick or treatin' with his kid brother and when we were around a good crowd, he'd come up and pull a gun on us tryin' to take our candy. Of course the kid says no and a small struggle between me and the gunman ensues and then the gun goes off. I fall to the ground with a freshly exploded squib bleeding all sorts of fun and the kid would be hovering over my body freakin' out, while his brother runs off with the candy. After layin' motionless on the ground for a while, I'd get up like nothin' happened... Change my shirt and do it again... I thought that would be great for a laugh... But damn the small business man who cant compete with the hollywood big dawgs... They went out of buisness...

But I'm not bitter...
I went to work for 2 1/2 hours yesterday, but I left early because I was "sick". What that really means is that at 11am I jumped in my car and drove 10 1/2 hours to come up to chicago to see Beth for the weekend. I'm not sure what were gonna be doin' for halloween, we'll most likely hang out watchin' movies... And this year it definetely isn't a bad thing...

Is it bad that I blew off 1 1/2 days of work?!?! Oh well....

How about with you kids... What are your plans for Devil's Night (oct. 30th) and Halloween?!?!
