Sometimes you just wake up and it's going to start out to be a really shitty day. I sort of had this feeling on Halloween, but luckily the day changed. It's not always a pleasant thing to wake up to hear two separate car alarms going off before you're ready to get out of bed. It was also rainy and gross which didn't help anything. We were going to do our normal Thursday things, but because of the weather we didn't.
Bob asked if I'd ever seen the original Halloween which I hadn't, so we watched that together. He told me that it wasn't supposed to be all that serious of a movie so I went into it with the right mindset. I did think it was over-exaggerated and funny.
We then went to Eldo's for the annual Halloween karaoke party and ended up having a blast. I always tease Liz about how she's late for things, but she ended up getting to Eldo's before we did. We'd gone in to see who was there but didn't see the two of them so Bob finally sent them a WhatsApp. We all found each other and had such a great time.
Charles won second place in the Halloween costume contest for his Scarecrow costume which made me super proud. Apparently Bob and Clay are going to see the Joker movie next Thursday so Liz is going to come over so that the two of us can hang out. She had invited herself over which I kept wondering if she'd do. I've always told her that she didn't even need to worry about asking since we'd never say no to her..
I've finished Emily R. King's Hundredth Queen series. After finishing it I'm sort of kicking myself in the ass
for not finishing it sooner than I did. She has started writing a new series called Evermore, and I'm liking it just as well. It's about a girl with a clockwork heart and it's a bit different than anything i've ever read. The same lady who reads the Hundredth Queen series reads this one as well, which is awesome. Some of the books take place on a ship, and while i'e not ever been on a ship, I doo like reading books about ship voyages.
A sort of sad thing happened yesterday. As some may or may not know our friend Ernie passed away in September. I had mentioned to his girlfriend that I'd like to have had his rocking chair. I wasn't sure if this was going to happen, but Ernie's daughter texted me yesterday and she brought said chair over to the house. When I sat down I had a little cry. Bob asked me if I was going to cry every time I sat in the chair. I thought that for a while I may, but today when I sat down I was doing okay. The only rule that i have is no one is to have any food while sitting in Ernie's chair. I'm sure he'd be smiling because the chair is in a really good home.
That's all I've got for today.
