    If you celebrate it, how was yours? A friend of mine just bought a projector so we had a scary movie marathon. I finally had the chance to watch 28 days later...not as scary as I expected(actually not scary at all) but not a bad movie overall.

    mine was kinda burnt. no kids came to our house. I stayed up really late on Thursday, and yesterday at work was really really slow, so I was fighting the numbing effects of boredom all day.

    so by the time I got home, I didn't really feel like doing much - had a couple of parties I could have gone to, but didn't have the motivation. My wife felt the same way, so we hung out and got chinese takeout, went to bed kinda early.

    not a bad night, but lamest Halloween in years.

    They were all at my place - I got swamped with 'em this year.
    Don't know where they all came from, but never seen half that much around the neighborhood ever...somethin' fishy 'bout that.


    Later, I decided to watch an old horror flick that I rented on DVD, and think the horror was all in the transfer

    Did ya ever see a DVD with bad tracking problems and hiss louder than a freight train?
    Well, you just have to see it to believe it -

    Dont really bother with haloween in uk, but some of the local kids do, just to get some cash! So what I do is turn everything off and retire to the kitchen. Close the curtains. Then ignore them. Ya gots to be careful though, cos if they realise that you ignoring them on purpose, they throw a firework in ya car.

    We went with my brother and his family to a mall to get some candy. We dressed our son as Blue, from Blue's Clues. It was interesting to see all the other kiddies and some adults dressed up. I wanted to dress up myself, but I didn't have the time to put a good costume together.

    We do what we always do, fill a bucket with shit and the first kid that knocks at the door...
    ...SPLAT!
    No, we atually spend a fortune on sweets too and give them out to the kiddies that come dressed up, rather than the bastard teenagers who come with a mask and expect a cheque.
    Although this time I had my son in my arms (Dan, 20 months) each time I opened the door (the plan was he'd shout 'boo', to the best of his ability, each time the door opened).
    He'd seen three or four arrive and whilst being too shy to shout 'boo' he did manage to look intrigued.
    He was even knocking on the side of the sofa himself (simulating the next set of kids at the door he was so keen to answer it)
    All was going well, all fine, right up until the bastards with the 'scream' masks arrived.
    Almost back up the stairs to change the poor little bleeder's nappy, he looked like he was going to shit himself he was so scared

    I took a well-needed and well-deserved nap. If I need candy and parties, I'll do that some other time.

    Besides, it's hard to tell if the little number in the cat costume is really hot or not.

    Do you know, I asked someone about this 'Northern Stella' thing and I swear I only just found out they call it 'wifebeater'.
    I'll be honest; I can't drink it; too strong for me; a pint is my max and then I have to go back to bud

    You mean special brew?
    Isn't it true you're only allowed to drink that in the street (preferably the gutter), whilst wearing a dirty mac and having a pile of vomit by your side?

  23. No special brew is in a league of its own along with tennents super and white lightning.

    Holsten is the preffered tipple for wife beaters and herberts alike.

    Halloween day was a terrible day for me. On Friday 31st October, I was very ill with some kind of flu and bedridden all day. Very, very sick indeed.

    Anyway, I feel much better now.

    My gym membership expired the previous day and I can't come back due to the viral attacks. I can't do anything extreme and the sickness keeps on coming back. I feel sad, I can't workout anymore and meeting my friends.

    I first became very sick way back during June 2003 and I am still trying get rid of it. It comes and goes.

    I have to remember, don't do too much and getting too tired, drink plenty of water, go outside have a walk and don't get into too much stress.

    Sleep is the best medicine and too much of it. In bed is the only way to get better and not even medication from the doctor can shift it.

    I may return to the gym next year and I will have other things to do for now. Summer is here, I'll think about the beach.
