It's becomming "That" time of year again.

I was walking the other day through a wal-mart supercenter, that's where I do my grocery shopping, and I came across That isle again.

It was filled with those items, seemingly untimely places, but serving as a prewarning to that time of year.

Ah yes I thought to myself as I looked down the isle of candy for tricker-treaters, fall is comming.

Soon we will be Deluged with the next hoilday and the next and the next.

Some how they now have it so that Holloween spills over into thanksgiving that gets spun off into Christmas and then New Years.

And I find myself wondering, is this a good or bad thing? hmmm

What the hell am I going to be for Halloween this year????!!!! I'm slacking, usually I have my costume all planned out. The past 2 years will be tough to beat, a line of coke (Allana is what I liked to call her) and 'Carrie'....I have to come up with something good.

Speaking of Halloween and Wal-mart. I saw mass produced Wal-mart versions of Michael Myers costumes....in the children's section too omg I know MM is popular and all, but so popular that Wal-mart felt the need to sell tons of them mad What a horrible feeling it would to be an adult walking around with the same get up that a 7 yr.old is wearing. lol
