 haunted houses and plane rides
I am sitting on the plane on my way to Seattle watching people walk back and forth to and from the bathroom. One guy with an IPod is walking down the isle strumming an air guitar. It must be nice to be that happy and not really care that you may look kind of silly. But then again why does he look silly to me? Is it because “I” think he should restrain him self? Who am I to judge a man who is truly enjoying himself and making the best of a long flight? It makes me laugh not to think about what this world could be if everyone dropped their feelings like I have and everyone just was not afraid to look a little silly from time to time.

  I find myself doing this a lot lately… I will do something or judge someone then a moment later I see the flaw in what I have done. We all want people to just be themselves but when they do we criticize them for who they are. That was of thinking is kind of a mixed bag if you ask me, and I am just as guilty as anyone.

  Well on to other things… Last night I took my son and daughter and 4 of their friends out haunted house hopping. I may have to work and may not be able to get out with them once I return from my trip for Halloween so I wanted to do something for them. Neither one of them has really been to any of the really good places, and their friends just thought that their dad was the coolest for actually taking them out there. To be honest I had as much fun as they did I think. Now granted it may be quite some time before I decide to venture out with 6 kids between the ages of 12-14 again. But for the most part they had fun as did I and man oh man did it scare the pants off of them lol. There is a place called the fear factory here and it is pretty cool. Not just a bunch of guys in masks they do it up right. You walk in and they show you a movie of the history of the place. It was well done mixing facts with fiction so well in fact I heard people talking afterward and asking each other if what was on the movie really happened. Well the kids got a big surprise when they found out that you can only go in as groups no bigger than 6. So they decided much to my daughter’s dismay that they would brave it all on their own and I could hang out and go in with the next group who was just 4 girls, a mom, daughter and her 2 friends. The kids did well, but I do not think I have ever been groped and pulled on so much in my life. Lol every time someone got scared they hid behind me, the mom after apologized, I just laughed and told her it was ok it made it more fun for me listening to them scream.

  After the fear factory there was a black out maze, that was a bit interesting and I think I grabbed some girls boob a few times. It is pitch black and seriously you can not see your hand 1 inch in front of your face. So your feeling your way around this maze that was built in a warehouse, there is not real direction and no guides, just people jumping out scaring the ever living crap out of you with every turn. Well there are several groups in there all at one time so you do tend to bump into people… the only problem is that is you don’t hear them coming and your hands are out in front of you so you do not hit a wall…. Well you tend to ummm touch stuff lol. Good thing is no one gets mad, but it was fun.


 We also went to a church where a local boy scout troop puts on a haunted walk… now it was nothing compared to the fear factory... but I like to support local groups, and I know they had great hot dogs out there and the kids were hungry. After I dropped the last one off and finally got home it was about 1:30am and I still had to pack for my trip. After I got everything done and got my clothes dried that I had forgotten about it was close to 3am and well I had to get up at 4am to be at the airport by 5… so yeah I just fixed a pot of coffee and figured I could sleep on the plane. Only to find that ummm I am not tired lol how odd is that. So I think this is long enough and I better end this here. I hope you all are doing well…

Smile…. Its dark and you are lost…. But ummm at lest you got to cop a feel
Smile… it is dark… your lost… but at least you still getting felt up in the dark lol

That was awesome. Glad you had a very haunted time. The groping in the dark was an added bonus. LOL. Hope your trip is awesome.

You had the cajonies to go into the haunted house....me I never had the cajonies to do that. Even though I knew "the scary monsters" were ordinary people. I was the big chicken that stayed outside while my kids went inside. Enjoy these moments Douglas..they grow up way too fast. And to think you were booby grabbing in the dark...

P.S. Have a great trip. Seattle is one of my all time favorite cities....watch out for flying fish!
