All Hallow's Eve!!!

Happy Eve-to-All-Saint's-Day everybody!!!!!

My office building's property manager sponsored a blood drive today. And, in my book, that's totally awesome!! I mean, c'mon!?! What better day to ask for people's blood than Halloween?! I gave my first pint today and I'm SO proud of me! I can't wait for another 56 days (that's how long you have to wait to donate again so that your red blood cells have enough time to regenerate) to go donate again!!!

And, btw, that's 2 days after CHRISTMAS!!!!!

So, here's my plug to all things good - GO DONATE!!! If you want mo' info befo' you go.... visit www.givelife.org or call 1-800-GIVE-LIFE (1-800-448-3543).

I can't believe I've never given blood before!! It wasn't that bad.... but I wasn't as nervous about the needles and the blood - it's how woozy you feel afterwards!!! But, I didn't get as woozy as I thought I would. I actually didn't get dizzy until I climbed the stairs to my office.... helloooooo!! How did I think I was going to feel? But at least today I have a fully legitimate excuse for propping my feet up on my desk or lying on the floor!!

Hope everyone gets more treats than tricks tonight!!!!

Halloween Weekend Tidings of Evil

Just wanted to post well-wishings to everyone going out to celebrate Halloween this weekend. Be evil (in a good way) to your heart's content!! Just PLEASE don't end up like this..... it's never a good look for anybody.

Not even this jack o' lantern.

I love Halloween and scary things but I just can't seem to get a costume together - ever. You can tell the costumes that were thrown together at the last minute and to me that's just downright insulting. So, unless I can put the time and effort into putting together a great look, I'm just not going to insult the great tradition of Halloween costumes like that. I WILL NOT be that person.

If anyone has any suggestions for future Halloween costumes or even pictures they'd like to share of some good costumes, I'd be most appreciative.

Thanks - YO!

Me & George Romero

My sister, Marie, took this picture of me and the infamous zombie movie director, George Romero. Cute couple, huh?

What you cannot see in this picture, however, is that George has his hand placed squarely on my rear. Oh yes, my friends, George is VERY young at heart!
