  Halloween 2009

  tonight was a bi polar evening. there were a few moments where i experienced a rare boost of joy, but the majority of it was ruined by my sister.

  It all started when my sister was getting ready to go to a club. She was in the bathroom putting on way too much make up like always. 2 of her friends couldn't go along so she asked me to print up the receipt so she could get her friend's money refunded. I tried, but the yellow cartridge was empty. I told her it was empty and there was nothing i could do. I even told her to just run down the street and get it printed. She gets all angry and just goes "don't talk to me" in this really snotty voice and calls her friend. I heard her in the next room over going "My brother can't print the receipt. I don't know why he can't" and some other stuff. Basically pinning the blame on me. Needless to say. i was rather angry.

  Then my mom got home and notice my sister was in another one of those moods. She went into the kitchen and then all of the sudden, it happened. The tv in the bedroom turned on by itself. Swear to god truth. My mom comes in and starts wondering why it's on. I told her it wasn't me. And that it wasn't my sister either. She was in her room stressing out. When my mom said the TV went on by itself, my sister called her crazy in a really snotty mood and from there it was all downhill. 5 minutes later she was out of the house. she threw a bunch of stuff in the suit case and was off.

  So afterwards, we decided to go down the street and head to the mall. I took my costume and mask. Along the way we passed a house with a tent in front of it. I asked ehr to stop so i could trick or treat it. Inside there were a bunch of those plastic severed hands and legs, and fake cleavers with blood stains on them. A dude with a bloody apron, disfigured face mask and a chef's hat gave me candy. It was fun. THIS is what Halloween is all about right here. I got some Whoppers, Nerds, and snickers. my favorites!

  When we got to the mall, they told me i couldn't bring my mask inside because i'm an adult. I understand the threat of violence and all but come on. It's Halloween. Can't they have security guards check you? Like search you to make sure you don't have any weapons and make you take your mask off briefly and check your ID? is that too much to ask? That put a damper on the Halloween spirt. But anyway, Inside my mom felt bad for me and offered to buy me some new button up shirts for when we go to formal events. She got me 2 nice shirts.

  Coming home from taco bell, we stopped at a stop sign. Then some kids in clown costumes ran up to the car and started honking their horns. one of them said "hi i'm Mark". It was cute. I wish i could have the opportunity to play like this for once and enjoy was i was denied as a child. oh well. Guess that's life.

  I ordered a crunchy taco supreme but for some reason they gave me 2. I noticed this when i got home. Much to my dismay, one of them had meat in it. (i asked for no meat). Aw well. It's not like i paid for the extra one. Suddenly, there was a knock on the door. I answered it to find some kids with their parents. And well, one of them got not only candy, but a taco too....

  anyway, in response to the TV turning on by itself, i don't know what you people want to believe, and if you believe in things from the other side, but my grandmother things that my deceased grandfather turned it on. When he was alive, he loved Halloween and would take me trick or treating around the neighborhood. Guess he was just stopping by to say Happy Halloween. You don't have to believe that if you don't want, but i do.

  Charlie horses

  does anyone ever get these? (muscle spasms in your leg in case you don't know)

  i actually Charlie horsed twice this week. the first was rather painful. Just this morning i did it again. I hope i don't keep Charlie horsing. It does hurt to stretch your leg out all the way at first. But ultimately, walking on it works best to make the pain go away.

  finally beat it

  after about 50 hours of gameplay, i have finally beaten farcry 2. i beat it last night and all i can say is man, what a very anti climactic ending. And i still didn't get all the achievements. oh well. maybe next time. Now i can finally move on to prince of Persia and focus on that. Then i'm going to play Banjo kazooie nuts and bolts, and finally beat oblivion.
