halloween, haste the day and hauntings....

so halloween was great. there was no trick or treating this year, but i got to have debbie come for the weekend instead. i realized that when you are inviting a friend from a big city/suburb to come and visit on halloween you should make sure they have good directions, for there was a new moon out on halloween and that meant a very dark night driving in the middle of cornfields to get to my house. thankfully she didn't get too lost! but i'm sure it made for one spooky drive! haha. perfect for halloween hauntings.

the next night we drove to pontiac to see our boys in haste the day! it was great, except they opted not to play american love. i suppose the crowd really didn't know their stuff so they cut things short, but for us we were sad that they did not play it. after all, american love is my song... well, ok was when jimmy was the singer. i guess i just don't know stephen well enough to tell him he should pick up and continue to sing it to me! haha. its really been fun going to shows again. it makes me really miss the venue/cafe in chicago. i wish at times there was an opportunity for that kind of thing here in this small town that i've found myself in. i have the perfect location for shows, i just don't know if we could pull in enough kids.... that would really be the main issue. maybe its something i should pray about.

i also watched the movie sunshine over the weekend. it was really quite good. i would recommend it.

oh, and i got myself a new hoodie! finally. i was hoping to get a new HTD one, but they only had smalls and it was an old one, so i opted to support a new band named: O, Sleeper. good stuff and a really nice hoodie. i did however get my white and gold HTD shirt! ha! its great. i don't think i've loved one of their shirts so much since their orange one with the cowboy on it that very few people actually own. i always did love that one! hehe.

ok. i'm loving the fact that its almost 70 today and its november! but i think after this week i will be ready for the snow to start, because my mind will begin to fix itself on the holiday season that is fast approaching. i can't wait. for as much as i love halloween, there is just something about being home for the holidays and i have some extra time off this year which will make it even better. :)

well, i can't stop listening to the new haste the day or the new lovedrug. both are great albums!
