Happy Halloween. <3
I love this holiday.
I love it so fucking much.
Not even for the costumes anymore, now that I don't have to wait for One Day A Year to be myself.
(Although I do love the costuming, and the excuse to do it that Dae still provides. <3 <3 )
I just.
This month, I have had an excuse to think about the people that I love, and the people who are family to my loved ones, who are dead...without feeling morbid or like I'm a creep. I made a wreath so the kids know I've got candy, and I made semi-matching bouquets for Mark's dad and eldest brother. It's my first year knowing where his brother is! And today I took those out and spent some time hanging out.
Brought brother some candy, because that's what Halloween's for for kids, and the little guy will always be a kid.
Brought Dad some of his tobacco, a black coffee, and shared an apple fritter with him.
It was good. Maple Hill seems to be okay with me; Valhalla was downright friendly.
I got out and Did Stuff and now I feel less lonely.
Halloween's the best.
