Ok, here I am again!! To finish my Myths & Monsters story -- it's a haunted house thing and when we got there Joe is like 'oh we're not going in there' and I'm like 'oh, but of course we are, I just bought the tickets to this and the Boris Karloff one!!' So on we go. I walk in first and the man I married (who is supposed to be the protector, right?) is holding on to my leather jacket as I walk in!!!!

He then turns around and yells 'Debbie', which he never calls me, and of course now all the 'ghouls and ghosts' are screaming (I wish I had audio right now) 'Deb-bie' Deeeeebbbbiiiieeee, it's Debbie, Debbie's coming, Debbie' all in this really scary voice

I am HYSTERICAL laughing and Joe is freaking out!! When we came out, they all came out to see me and say goodbye to me 'Where's Debbie, Bye Debbie' -- it was the funniest thing!!!!

Joe says 'I won't call your name ever again'!! I thanked him for making me a celebrity!!!
Went to several other haunted houses and then on to lunch at the Salem Brew Works where we got merrily buzzed off the homemade beer and on to the Witch Village and the Cemetary!! At this point I have the camcorder and I don't know how to use the darn thing on a good day, imagine after 2 octoberfest beers!!!

I almost fell over this tombstone that was about 5 inches tall and all you see is the sky turning upside down!!! Not for nothing, but you get carsick watching my taping!! Then I almost peed in my pants when Joe went to sit on this chainlink fence and it broke!!!! He didn't fall, but it was the funniest thing and I am sitting here cracking up thinking about it!!! All you hear on the tape is me cracking up (or cackling as he calls it)!!!!!!!
I was thinking of you girls -- especially about the post where we discussed how our beloved hubbies drive!! Because it seems that I was in the car with Mario Andretti on the way home and we were in a race with some old guy in a Camry and there was no way that Mario could let this old man pass him by!!! WHAT THE HECK IS WRONG WITH THESE MEN???? So, I ask mine and he tells me 'I think it's a testosterone thing -- I can't let that jacka$$ pass me' and I said to him 'I don't care about the jacka$$ in that lane, I'm more concerned about the jacka$$ sitting next to me, so SLOW YOUR A$$ DOWN OR I'M GETTTING OUT OF THIS CAR AND TAKING METRONORTH HOME!!!!
I'm telling ya, I only had a few gray hairs when I left, I'm going to be dying my hair tonight after that trip!!!!

He's unbelievable -- but he is all mine!!!
I highly recommend Salem during the Halloween season -- much to do and see and a great place for kids -- they have a lot. Lots of freaks and gothic weirdos -- Joe kept calling everyone a wiccan and I had to tell him to shut up before they placed some spell on us or something!!!!
We even went to Quincy Market and Little Italy in Boston for dinner and that was really nice also. Now it's back to reality and work -- speaking of which, I better go do some!
Ciao for now!
