Ghosting

Have you ever heard of "Ghosting"?

Well, it's around this time of year - October - and it's pretty fun.

You’ve been ghosted!

The phantom ghost has come around
To leave some goodies that you have found.
If you don’t wish a curse to fall,
Continue this greeting, this ghostly call.

First, Post the ghost where it can be seen,
On your door or window until Halloween.
Then to your home no other ghost will visit.
It’s so much fun, be sure not to miss it.

Next, make 2 treats, 2 ghosts, 2 notes
That’s the gist
Take them to 2 friends
So they won’t be missed

You only have one day to act, so be fast.
Leave treats at homes where no ghosts have passed
Remember deliver after dark when there’s barely a light
Ring the doorbell and run fast out of sight.

And last but not least, come join in the season
Don’t worry, be happy, you need no good reason.
Be scary, have fun and try not to be seen
And share in the spirit of this HALLOWEEN!

Drama

Drama.

It has a way of finding me.

Always.

I don't look for it, I don't like it and I don't enjoy it. But no matter what I do it's always there lurking around the corner. I wish I could write openly about all the drama that I am faced with...never know who might be reading this......

I have work drama, family drama, trip drama, house drama, hubby drama, friend drama, volunteer drama and probably in more areas that I am forgetting......

Drama.

p.s. today thus far I am drama free and it's lovely!

One of those Email poems

Monica sent this to me this morning and I thought it was pretty funny. It's certainly not one of those sappy email friendship poems:

1. When you are sad, I will help you get drunk and plot revenge against the sorry bastard who made you sad.

2. When you are blue, I will try to dislodge whatever is choking you.

3. When you smile, I will know you are plottingsomething that I must be involved in.

4. When you are scared, I will rag onyou about it every chance I get.

5. When you are worried, I will tell you horrible stories about how much Worse it could be until you quit whining.

6. When you are confused, I will use little words.

7. When you are sick, Stay the hell away from me until you are well again. I don't want whatever you have.

8. When you fall, I will point and laughat your clumsy ass.

9. This is my oath: I pledge it to the end "Why?"you may ask; "because you are my friend".

Friendship is like peeing your pants, everyone can see it, but only you can feel the true warmth.
