Happy Day After Halloween!

I just bought a bunch of half price Halloween candy at the supermarket. Reese's Peanut Butter cups for everybody!

Spent a very good Halloween last night. Debuted my new witch costume. I revamped an old graduation robe and donned a cool hat I found at JoAnn Fabrics. baylorsr said I looked like a teacher from Hogwarts, so win. baylorsr was a very cute ladybug and the Baylor Sister was a fairy. We passed out candy to the neighborhood kids and ate rice krispy treats and "eyeballs".

After trick-or-treating was over baylorsr and I decided to be super-lame and go out and actually purchase the House of Wax remake (hiyacynth said we should!). It wasn't nearly gory enough but there were a couple decent startles and it didn't completely suck so I guess it was worth five bucks.

We did not have a bonfire or try to divine the future via the entrails of burnt sacrifices, but it was still a good time all around. I came home utterly exhausted and immediately went to bed.

Am still fairly exhausted. Kind of want to spend the rest of forever snuggled under the blankets on my bed. That sounds like a good plan.

Feeling crappy and sorry for myself. blah blah blah fibromyalgia blah blah blah depressing part of brain won't shut up blah blah blah.

Very much wish I had someone to lean on. Not that I don't have super-awesome friends who are always there to be a shoulder to cry on/friend in need/general sanity and support system but it would be nice to have someone physically here with me. It'd be nice to be taken care of every once in a while.

But I'm not the only person in the world who has to make it through on my own two feet and at least I only have myself to take care of. So let's just put those big girl panties back on and move along.

So, in order to, well, not lighten things up because the scenelet I'm about to post is kinda depressing, but to move things along, here's some more Bobby with a kid. Just so you know, I wrote this a couple months ago so I promise it's really not indicative of how I'm feeling at the moment. Promise. ;-)

Have you all been reading the latest multi-part from xkcd? I have to say, it's pretty dang hilarious and guaranteed to put a smile on your face.
