I didn't go to work today. Slothful I realize, but I was genuinely sick (my own doing sure, but sick nonetheless) and I'm still recovering. How I do love Halloween, but apparently folks can have one too many scares. Apparently, someone dressed in a Japanese schoolgirl uniform high off both mass quantities of Smarties and tequila slammers can be a very scary thing indeed... according to my friends. I have to say, I was a bit scared myself... you really don't want to know what color your insides turn about 2am after having consumed nothing solid but Smarties (and a Snickers Cruncher or two) all day. *cringes* I figured I would be good and not go out after I took my cousins trick or treating. Heh. How wrong I was when I came home the roommates and some friends had what seemed like a case of Joe Crow and went nuts in the Target candy aisle. The evil bastards.
Speaking of scary, I partook in a bit of an Asian horror movie fest all day ... specifically, Phone (Korean horror movie that did do cell phones what Ringu / The Ring did for TVs), Ju-On 2 (Meh. Not as good as the first), Audition (Takashi Miike is FUCKING DISTURBED I say!) and The Worst Witch (Not Asian I realize but it's still the best. Halloween. movie. ever). A friend's boyfriend's friend, who I'd only just met, suggested we put in The Passion of the Christ later in the evening. He may have succeeded too, if I'd been a tad more inebriated. Although, thinking about it, the movie is unintentionally fitting for the atypical gore-fest one tends to watch on Halloween. However, I don't think he was suggesting it for it's unintentional appropriateness but to save our mortal souls from the rampant displays of All Hallows satanism. If the boy only knew the sort heretics he was keeping company with, of all nights, he probably would have run straight to the nearest priest begging for asylum. I did get a bit of a Bible Belt, Dubya-worshippin' vibe from him. I figured those sorts stayed at home with all the doors and windows locked gripping their crucifixes on Oct. 31. It's possible we may have scarred him for life. Oh well, you want free snacks & tequila, you got to put up with a little heathenism from time to time.
And in utter randomness for the sake of civil duty... VOTE PEOPLE. That is all.
