Well, I just haven't posted in a while. Been busy.

I wonder why it is... oh yeah, right, journaling was always some sort of self-indulgent act, so I keep forgetting that I actually want to document things.

Odd things happen at haunted houses. You know this. Comments you only hear when you work at a haunted house:

"Honey, did you remember to get your blood?"

"Hey, you left your scythe in the sink!"

"So, we've gassed up all the chainsaws... we're ready to go."

The last time I did the "victim in chains," a guy beat me on the head and I was glad it wasn't worse, he looked like he was wanting to tear the place down.

So last night, I did the "living half-girl" and that was particularly interesting. You have to hold very still so as not to spoil the illusion, in case you want to know.

Are there none in your area, dear? I don't know how everyone operates, but where I am, even the most inexperienced, limited actor is given a mask and a "boo hole" to pop out of. We learn as we go. :)

Sadly, the only spook houses around here are run by various charity organizations, and only for a week or so before halloween.
