Anyone remember Tales From The Crypt?

Loved that show growing up. I’m sure if I were to youtube right now, I’d cringe at how stupid and tacky it was. But in my younger years it was serious stuff. Especially on Halloween.

Okay, sidenote — I just youtube’d and it was not tacktified like I thought it would be and omg, scandal!! I don’t remember how scandelouslicious it was! Then again, I was in sixth grade, I’m sure half of that flew over my innocent, purified head.

I am happy to report that last night, Brother and I did our traditional pumpkin carvings. Third year in a row going strong, which might as well be like 9 years to me.

In true sibling fashion, his looked like a work of art and mine resembled … well, I’m not really sure what. But it definitely did not come close to the damn dracula it was supposed to. It’s kinda sorta a cluster F, that I’m hoping looks better in the dark, lit up.

But, I’m not really concerned with f-ing up pumpkin carvings! Because, last night proved that I do have it in me to be a Mama. I might not get all decked out and dressed up with my kid, in fact, I’m pretty positive that shit will never happen, but I’ll be damned if I won’t be able to carve a pumpkin, or have Brother do a really great one that I get to pass off as my own.

Hope springs Halloween eternal here, People. It’s in the little things.

Happy Halloween. Eat some candy for me, will you? My Baby and I both thank you for that.
