there's going to be some scary fun to be had

october is about to wrap up and that means halloween is only around the corner.

while it's never really been a big thing here in australia, i've always loved the thought of celebrating all hallow's eve. i guess it appeals to my love for things horror and supernatural. though i've never actually been out trick or treating myself nor carved my very own jack o'lantern like they do in america, i can appreciate the fun the whole thing brings.

which is why i'm really looking forward to this year's celebrations.

yours truly has been invited to no less than three separate halloween parties - and all are dress-ups. so excited in fact that i even have my costume already worked out. i won't reveal what it will be just yet but let me say that i've never been this excited to be carrying something on my back. i'm even splashing out on make-up. for a guy that doesn't even know, let alone like, having powder done on his face, that's a leap.

now, my only dilemma is how to pace myself for the evening. as with all great parties, they'll surely be a great number of (free) booze. i really don't want to turn up at the last shindig only to start bobbing for more than apples...

happy halloween!
