The Count

      Well, there's only fifteen days, two hours and fifty-six minutes until my birthday. And just like last year, my plans have been tossed out the window by somebody else. I was talking about my plans last night, and today I woke up and he was still bitching about them. Just because others had bad experiences, doesn't mean I will. In fact I haven't.
      I said no matter what, I was doing it; and maybe I still should. It's supposed to be my day. You know what his day is? The other 355. It was going to be on my dime anyway; I don't think I've ever asked him for any favors. Certainly not about money.

      Another Halloween come and gone. I was looking forward to it, since my game celebrates the festivities. I've never gone trick-or-treating, attended a costume party, nothing. So when costumes are added to the in-game shop, I usually find something I want. This Halloween I basically napped all day, because I'd gone so long without sleep. We had one trick-or-treater, and this time candy was actually given. Normally a sign of some sort is put on our door.
      I'll never forget one Halloween. I think it was 2009. I had a can of Silly String, shot it from an upstairs window at a woman walking on the other side of the street, and actually got her. I could hear her freaking out.
      But the decorations people put out for Halloween seem ridiculous. "Ohmigod, a pumpkin! It's squash!" What makes it scary, the face? And what's scary about bat stickers? "Look out, it's got glue on it!" Honestly, I'd be more concerned that so many parents let their children go out unsupervised, getting candy from strangers whose faces might be covered, even after all the scares about drugs or weapons concealed in candy. No, you just keep worrying about paper and fruit.
      So anyway, here are some Halloween shots from the game. (The skull's name is Beelzebub!)
