I love Halloween. I always have, even though I was always more or less disappointed by it in my youth. Its truly something special, now that its far beyond its roots of scaring away the dead, and is all about dressing up as something, or someone you aren’t.
Sure, most women chose to dress up sexy, but in the end, who doesn’t WANT to feel alittle sexy? Especially when its all just in fun.

Something is Wrong With the World
There’s something truly amazing about fall, though this year, its been a bit...odd. There were several things earlier in the year that showed the world that nature was a bit off.
It snowed in May here. That’s beyond crazy that it would happen. Immediately after, though, we started seeing some really odd things. Mom was quick to report that all the summer flowers bloomed at once. Here we noticed that some of the trees seemed to not understand what was going on, one particular tree that blooms in the spring bloomed 3 times over the summer....

Zombies, Write II Entry
(( This is an interesting post. For those of you who don't know, I'm a huge fan of ZombiesRun, a game on iOS and Android where you go out in the real world and run (or walk in my case) and get a story around your music about surviving in the Zombie Apocalypse. It adds a really interesting facet to your exercise. And I definitely recommend it to ANYONE and EVERYONE.
This post though, is part of a thing called Zombies Write II. Its an unofficial fanfic writing type thing that plays out like a Secret Santa. I was giving a prompt by Pamela over at http://www.tumblr.com/blog/pamelamella. Her prompts were really fun to play around with, and even though I wanted to do every one of them, I chose:
((P.S. Don't worry, the Ballad will return at its normal day and time next week! ))

- Haven't heard much from Molly since season 1- any request or needs from the children of New Canton or Able?

(poem) - All Hallows Eve Approaches
My dreams are haunted as of late
I have needs I need to satiate
The thirty first of October comes
Looming across many horizons
The drums of the day, beat within my head
Telling me of who shall return from the dead
To haunt the waking world outside
And who it is with which I will ride
The sands of time fall through the hole
And pile up like dunes in the bowl
Everything around us will eventually turn to dust
Scattered by the wind which forgets our petty lust
Ghosts from the future along with those from the past
Will come on All Hallows Eve to make it our last
But we will dress up as demons and freaks
To scare them away from that which they seek
Ultimate destruction will in no way be theirs
For even the dead have hysterical fears
At the end of the night, as dawn breaks in the East
We raise our glass and prepare for Thanksgiving’s feast
But only if the Great Pumpkin doesn’t arise and devour....
Hopefully Linus van Pelt will keep that covered
So my friends, as I awaken
I can look at these haunted dreams of mine
And realize the greatest truth of all
That Halloween is the greatest holiday of them all
For it’s the only one that we have to struggle to survive
The rest are all gifts, love, and lies
But All Hallows Eve is a test to the living
And makes you appreciate life without the gift giving
Because if you make it to the Day of All Saints
Then you shall have a bucket of Candy and nary a single complaint

My Nightmare
Ever have one of those dreams after hearing a song or watching a movie. Yeah, Nightmare on My Street by DJ Jazzy Jeff and the Fresh Prince has been a favorite of mine for decades. But sometimes, after maybe watching a Freddy film and listening to that song...you drift off into sleep and....
