It was a dark and stormy night…



I’ve got just one thing to say to all you freaks out there… I just don’t know what the Hell it is. I’ve never been the biggest Halloween nut out there. Everyone likes a good scare, and rainshadow is certainly no exception. Problem is that crap just doesn’t scare me. I think the last time I was actually scared out of my mind was a scene in Willow when Cherlindrea leaned over a fallen Bavmorda, and the old hag, appearing unconscious, sprung back to life like a possum on speed. I must have jumped about five feet in my chair in the theater. The stain left on my drawers that day is legendary.

That was years ago. To this day I still jump in my seat during that scene. Man, I love that movie.

There have been moments when I actually jump in my chair during flicks since that particular movie, but they aren’t really moments of fright. I think the one thing about scary movies that really bothers me is blood. Blood makes me queasy. It isn’t the fact that it scares me; it just makes me want to chunk my chicken. I admit it… rainshadow has a weak stomach.

Over the past five years, I’ve dressed up for Halloween three times. I’ve been Jason Voorhees (my favorite horror figure) twice and Superman, my favorite non-Sword of Truth and not created-by-rainshadow fictional character. This year I’m going to make fun of my piss-poor Kansas City Chiefs and go as a Chiefs fan with a bag over his head.

Cheapest costume I ever bought.

The strangest thing I’ve ever gone as is a transvestite whore with massive implants. I did that back in High School once and I must admit, I was the prettiest fucking transvestite in the state of Kansas. Hell, I made some real Kansas chicks jealous that year.

I have my sister to thank for that.

She wanted to make me a fat chick the next year but I just couldn’t agree two years in a row… rainshadow does have his pride.

What’s the best part about Halloween?

CANDY!

I want some fucking CANDY! Preferably chocolate.

It’s been years since rainshadow has gone actual trick-or-treating, so I guess I’m going to have to visit some friends’ houses tomorrow and get my fill then. Unfortunately I’m a bit too broke to buy my own tonight. I probably could get more sugar going as a transvestite whore again (sis is just across the street… hmmm). In retrospect, I don’t think that’s the kind of sugar I want.

I don’t have a whole lot else to say.

Keep in mind Legend of the Seeker airs tomorrow and Sunday. It’s just under 24 hours away for rainshadow. I am so friggin’ pumped!

My first official LotS review comes tomorrow after the show. Look for it. For those of you who won’t have a chance to see show yet, no worries… rainshadow won’t be posting spoilers.

Until then, may the good spirits be with you!

As I was reading your blog and saw so many fuck-words, I kept thinking, "Scandalous!" Then remembered we ARE allowed to curse in other places than PI.

Fuckin aye.

I actually went as a Mord-Sith one year. I was planning to break the outfit out this year in homage to the series, but then I got sick.

I wore it last night though, I am such a nerd XD

You should wear it for each airing of the show. I would (and I'm a guy). :p

If you have pictures I'd be thrilled to post one on the blog.

Hey raunch (is that a word?) can be fun.

One day I am going to be a MordSith for halloween, I am determined. I can't do some shitty version of it though; it has to be perfect... hence why it hasn't happened yet. Sucks to be poor!
