For Muse Shuffle
07. She’s some kind of demon messing in the glue // If you don’t watch out it’ll stick to you
(Cream - ‘Strange Brew’)
I think I have baked just about a hundred pies in the last week. Apple, pumpkin, pear, cherry…you name it and I have probably baked at least one. Tomorrow the church is havin’ its Halloween party and we always turn it into a fundraiser for the high school with the baked goods sale. Course there’s also a lot of foolishness goin’ on and games bein’ played. Stuff to keep the kids entertained and mostly out of trouble.
Ain’t no real trick or treatin’ out here since it’s a real pain in the ass to drive miles between houses. Besides, I think this is more fun anyhow. The little ones can still wear costumes and the rest of us just get to screw around and eat junk food.
I may have volunteered Anrai to help out buildin’ the maze out of hay bales. That’s where he and a handful of our ranch hands are tonight. They’ve been at it most of the afternoon and are probably off messin’ around in someone’s barn and havin’ a couple of beers by now. Dependin’ on how late he is getting’ back home, I may or may not sign him up to sit in the kissin’ booth for a while tomorrow night. He can keep Margene company.
Me, I’m helpin’ the little ones bob for apples and carve pumpkins. Possibly eggin’ on a couple of fools to join the tug o’ war too. Who wouldn’t want to see Jack and Anrai covered in mud?
Halloween’s fun around here, I’ve got all my treats taken care of and now I just need to take care of a few of the more interestin’ tricks. Like who I need to bribe to get Jack on dunk tank duty again this year.
