Halloween

Let me be the first to say that Halloween is pretty fricken awesome. If not for the kids running around in some pretty cute costumes, then let the fun Halloween-based things to do be my reasoning for loving the holiday.

I love to dress up, and Halloween gives me a reason to powder up my face, put on huge fake lashes, stick some cute red flowers in my hair, paint my lips red (though I always do that anyway :P) and hop into one of my more fancy dresses with stockings and prance around with a huge bowl of candy. I don't stand out a bit, it's great!

This year I really can't say I really dressed up as anything specific. But I fancied myself up quite nicely, and felt like a rich Spanish mistress, (it's the flowers, ya know) so I will take claim to that costume. I'll say I was a Spanish mistress.

I don't see the fuss with people thinking it's some Satanic thing supporting bad eating habits. I read an article in the paper about that. Some guy says he "doesn't support it because it doesn't seem right to allow our children to dress up as murderers and prostitutes" and that jazz. Well guess what?

It's rubbish. Absolutely stupid.

If ever I have kids, they are going to be just as Halloween-crazed as I am. There's nothing wrong with that. If Halloween is considered bad, then so are most video games, telelvision shows, food on the shelves, and birthday parties. So throw my ass in jail.

I love it. <3
