Happy Halloween!!
Sadly, this year, I was ambivalent about my favorite holiday. Lack of spirit around me has apparently trickled down and bummed me out.
Not for lack of trying on my part, though. I decorated my desk at work, even bringing in a light up Jack O Lantern and pumpkin deedly bobs to wear on my head, but to no avail. I kept the radio on a Halloween station all day and sang along to Don't Fear the Reaper. I baked a cake for the office with orange icing and candy corns spelling out BOO, but it was all bah, humbug.
Maybe because the holiday was mid week?
I used to decorate and dress up. I used to put up a graveyard in the front yard and play with the kids who dared enter. I used to wear costumes to work and get into character. I used to watch spooky movies in the dark. I used to carve Jack O Lanterns. I used to ENJOY Halloween.
Today, alas, it was business as usual. I even went to the store to pick up the new Christmas tree I ordered.
If I'm so grinchy about my favorite holiday...whatever will I do when my LEAST favorite rolls around?
Humbug...Christmas is less than 2 months away.
