Slacker
Good Gods, no wonder why I have been feeling so uncreative lately. I haven't posted on my journal in 9 weeks! I guess I haven't had much to say. Or, I've gotten so accustomed to Twitter and Facebook, that my thoughts have been relegated to 140 characters or less...
I'm sure I'll have plenty to write about soon - October is going to be a crazy month. It will all start on Oct 10th when the boy, Lea and possibly Megan will be going to the Ren Faire. It's a place I've always wanted to go, but never had the gumption to actually make it there. Should be fun. I'll bring my drinking horn and buy some mead. Mmm, mead. I wish I had enough money to buy some really cool stuff like corsets and such, but I'll probably be broke...
Next up is Social Distortion on October 16th at Crocodile Rock. SD does play there probably each tour they do, but they usually sell out right away. This time is no exception. But thanks to the wonderful powers of Dman, who has friends in, er, places, he was able to snag us a few spots on the guest list. Hurrah!!
October 23rd is Type O Negative at Crocodile Rock. I believe I've seen them play once. I was not at the show that Max Murder got his car suspiciously towed from, but I think I may have seen them in NYC at some point in time. Nonetheless, I am going this time around. We got the tickets today. Lea is going with us too, so, of course, it will be a fun time!
Then, October 24th brings us to Eastern State Penitertiary. We aren't going to do the Terror Behind the Walls, but rather a tour of the prison. Besides, according to Ghost Hunters, the prison is mega-haunted, so it will be creepy fun without having paid teenagers jump out from behind a plywood wall screaming "boo". Then it's the Mutter Museum (although maybe we'll do the Mutter Museum first than ESP, who knows). I am excited to see the old bones of those who donated their bodies to science in the 19th century. I think they have things in jars too. That always means a good time.
Finally, on October 31st, Halloween, leads us to Dracula's Ball (wow, I just realized that I will be spending two Saturdays in a row in Philly). I still don't know what I will go as - I was thinking of dressing up like Nikki Sixx for work, but I don't think I'll do that for Drac's Ball. I need some good costume ideas. Since my creativity chip has been dislodged from my brain, I have yet to think of anything. I need to think of something cheap. I guess I'll go to a thrift shop and check things out. The only downer of this is that I will miss Samhain Circle. Last year was awesome and I'm sure this year will be no exception. If only Samhain was two days long. It would make life much easier.
Then, November 1st is the first day of NaNoWriMo. I am going to try to do it this year - I have no math class to drain my brain and take away time from me. Of course, there lies another problem. I need to think of a story idea. I had a few down on paper that sounded good in my brain, but once I actually wrote them down, they sounded kind of lame. I guess I have a month to get something, but I wish I had some better ideas. Damn brain - why must you forsake me? We used to be friends. I'm pretty good to you. I don't do much which would kill your cells. Sure, my job is brainless and lame, but that's no way to revolt against me.
