Hooray for October!
Yippee! It's October! I love the fall. I'm not sure if it's because I like the cool weather or because my birthday is in fall or just because I feel most comfortable in jeans -- the standard fall apparel. Maybe it's because Halloween is just a few weeks away. I love a holiday that celebrates by asking you to be somebody else. It's one of the few times of the year I stretch beyond my comfort boundaries and literally change the person that I am. I hear one of the guys at work has a killer (no pun intended) Halloween party every year. Although I really want to go, I'm also tempted to do Scarowinds with my sister or go down to help my parents scare the bejesus out of all the Greenville kids. I missed Halloween at the family house for four years while I partook in
the UNC revelries. Last year I went home and had a really good time. The little Champster had a good time too, you see, but the tiny Jazzmeister wasn't even born yet!Anyhow, I started out what is probably my favorite month by enjoying a few drinks with my brother's girlfriend, who is in town for the weekend. Her family and a lot of her friends live here. I managed to stay sober enough to drive home so I can get to bed and still manage to drag my ass to work tomorrow. It's going to be a loooong day though. I think this whole working weekends thing is why there is so much intra-office dating at the station. That and Time Warner is so big they don't have any policies against it -- it would be impossible to regulate. I guess it's pretty inevitable when a bunch of young, good-looking people work closely together. And our people are fun too. I gotta start going to "media night" at the Gin Mill so I can know some of these guys outside the office. I finally have a job with cool co-workers, why not take advantage of it?
