Last night, for the first time in the almost 15 years since I ripped myself free of that gods beshitted cult, I got to hand out Halloween candy to little kids trick-or-treating. Makes being a new homeowner that much more awesome. Best. Halloween. Ever.
And now that I've actually got a workspace, I can start thinking of some serious costume ideas. I'd love to do something like this. I'll probably never get quite that awesome, but I can still start wishing :)
Not to mention starting to think about Christmas decorations. I'm fully planning on decking the house out as completely as I can manage, then taking a picture to send as a Merry Christmas card to my mom, signed "Finally having a normal Christmas. Wish you were here. Love, Your Son ". And I'll sleep a little more happily, just on the hope that it sticks long and painfully in her craw the next time she goes to the Watchtower study.
