Happy Halloween 2012

I guess its not been a very happy Halloween has it?
Rick is ill and everyone within a thousand miles of the east coast has been hit by abysmal weather.
For me personally, I did get to go to a party on Saturday. It was really fun and I got to see my friends. But, I worked late today and missed most of the festivities. Better luck next year, I guess.
Soon Halloween will be over. Bring on Guy Fawkes Day!
But for those of you who had a go Halloween. Enjoy! But, remember what this night is for. Dressing up in costumes, giving out candy, carving jack o'lanterns, these traditions were started to protect us. Its this night that the walls that separate our world from the world of the dead becomes its thinnest. When our ancestors come back to warm themselves by our fires and to check up on us. But the malevolent also come upon us, so we have to trick them and scare them off. This night is about respecting the dead. Especially at that hour between midnight and one. The hour that belongs to the dead.
