wonderful weather we're having, hmmm? It was so nice today. Better than yesterday and tuesday. Yesterday was just downright shitty and filled with death and destruction. I had to drive to class from Providence (30 miles) in a horrendous rain storm. I couldn't see, it was raining so hard but it stopped by the time i got to campus, but everything was really wet and sloppy and i stepped in some mud while trying to dodge a puddle so i'm waiting for my Chucks to fall apart. And then on the way to my afternoon class there was a dead cat mere inches from the sidewalk in a parking space. It was kinda sad, because i saw a "missing cat" sign on the way to class, before i saw the dead cat . And then on the way to work I saw someone hit a deer with their car, and the deer was still alive and twitching and trying to get up. Oh man . But today was nice. No death or destruction, but I was swamped at work for a solid hour and then was left alone for the rest of the night to read . So, yeah. Tomorrow's Halloween, but I have to work , but we get to dress up, but I still have to work . I'm gonna be Donnie Darko in his skeleton suit and grey hoodie . But I still have to work!!!!!!!! Anyway, here's a good halloween song (there's like a billion different versions of it: Halloween & Halloween II by the Misfits and Samhain's version of Halloween II, and I heard a DKM cover of it and saw the Unseen perform it at the Warped Tour last summer, and lest we forgot the cover by one of my favoritest bands (and rightful heirs to the Misfits' throne) - AFI (its on the All Hallows Eve EP):

"Bonfires burning bright
Pumpkin faces in the night
I remember Halloween

Dead cats hanging from poles
Little dead are out in droves
I remember Halloween

Brown leafed vertigo
Where skeletal life is known
I remember Halloween

This day anything goes
Burning bodies hanging from poles
I remember Halloween

Halloween, Halloween, Halloween, Halloween

Candy apples and razor blades
Little dead are soon in graves
I remember Halloween

This day anything goes
Burning bodies hanging from poles
I remember

Halloween, Halloween, Halloween, Halloween
Halloween, Halloween, Halloween, Halloween"

"Formulae ueteres exorsismorum et excommunicationum
Strigas et fictos lupos credere

Daemon pellem lupinam
In trunco quodam cauae
Arboris occultandum

Halloween, Halloween, Halloween, Halloween
Halloween, Halloween, Halloween, Halloween
Halloween, Halloween, Halloween, Halloween

Metamorphoses lycanthropie
Possunt inquam
Metamorphoses lycanthropie
Possunt inquam

Halloween, Halloween, Halloween, Halloween
Halloween, Halloween, Halloween, Halloween"

[The above is nonstandard Latin. Translation:

"Ancient formulas of exorcisms and excommunications
that witches and those made wolves believe
I maim now the demon clothed in wolfskin
Having to hide in the hollow of a tree
I believe that they so can be changed."]
