I believe it's time for another one of these updates. I have been pretty busy lately, with various assorted activities that include but is not limited to: spending time with some of my favorite people, observing Transformers, school and the work connected with, actual work and the serving of food and drinks, reading.
I've picked up the Witching Hour again, since most of my free reading time is spent with textbooks and Shakespeare [booooooo!]. Othello is the play of the day, and either I am getting dumber or I just can't fucking understand what the hell is going on. You pick. Anyways, I love how she [Rice] usually bases her main story in modern day times (Lestat as an '80s rockstar, Rowan as a neurosurgeon), but most of the actual contents is of some long ago story. Usually French. Always rich. Apparently she observes these as the ideal lifestyles. I would only pick the latter.
Halloween is approaching! Today was an absolutely gorgeous day (74 degrees F!) so I raked...and raked.....and raked...and the yard is still covered in leaves. Since any sparse wind that happens by shook the tree some and then I just gave up. But I did make some of those pumpkin leave bags for one's lawn. And also little white ghosts that I hung up on branches in the yard. That's about the extent of our decorations, which is more than any of the other neighbors. Whatever happened to the dedication of ghouls, blood, and skeletons on this most auspicious of days?! Come on people, I need a little more dread!
Speaking of which..witch...I am going with Shannon to Scream at the Beach on Thursday. Definitely one of Portland's tamer haunted houses, but who's to complain...plus I don't think I'll have enough time for some of the better ones =/. Nor the money. I just spent 83 bucks on 3 static-x tickets. Good thing they are one of my favorite bands.
This is my twelfth post.
