Post what you are thinking right now, part two

[odeon]

Thinking I want to go back to bed.

[Phoenix]

Yes, I'm thinking the same thing he's thinking.

[MLA]

Fuck my life

Uh oh 

[Queen Victoria]

Fuck my life

 

[Phoenix]

Ughghghghgh

We still love you, Hubert.

Thinking about yet another mass school shooting in the US. Parenting shouldn't have to worry about their kids dying just because they sent them to school.

I should have said patronus

Kid is in a partial program this year instead of cyber schooling. Part of the program is group therapy.

You would be surprised how many kids in his program have admitted to thinking about it...either because they were being teased by other kids or because they just couldn't keep up with the work and pressure to maintain there grades at home.

Obama's "no child left behind" bullshit and the state mandated testing has done nothing but increase the local dropout rates and produce teachers that no longer give a shit because they are racing to keep up the pace that the state now sets for these kids.

Actually it doesn't surprise me at all and that makes me sad.

I am actually thinking about how awesome I can make Halloween for the kids who "dare" to approach my house this year.

Older kids are used to my massive trash bag spider I make every year (full bag for the abdomen and a half stuffed one for the cephalothorax with huge bent sticks for fangs, these little stupid electric candles you can buy for the eyes)  stuffed with leaves, sticks covered with trash bags for six foot legs (the length of a trash bag split and folded out then twisted around a limb or two or eight as it should be)

Last year I had a two hour audio disc of Halloweeny sounding screams, howls, chains rattling, tortured souls, ugly noises, etc. MP3s set to play outside through some of my "old, but you will not ever find anything new that is better in any way" JBL loaded speaker cab. Only problem was that it turned out stormy and I did not want to take my very valuable vintage gear out into a storm AND I did not have a back up plan.

 This year, I am going to start with my back up plan. Instead of endangering my vintage gear, I am going to use some old car stereo stuff (honestly, which kid will know that I was not using my top grade gear to be freaky.) and set up before dark and rock out some ghoulish noise for a couple of hours.

I'm too far outside of town...no trick or treaters. I miss that. I want to try some of those ghosts though with packing tape and trash bags.

Supposed to be made of a fake skeleton draped with mop string dipped in monster mud.
