Halloween 2

by Staff Writer

Nope, not the movie—but comparatively, much more frightening in a surreal kind of way. I have managed to pack my Halloween full of interaction with the “long relationships? in my life that are the most trying. I am seeing my husband’s ex-wife, when she drops off her daughter after a Halloween party. I am going Trick or Treating with my ex-husband, his girlfriend (whom I have never met), her son, and my mother-in-law! My son and daughter will, of course, be there as well—but R. will not. (He will arrive later, post-work drudgery!)

NO, dear readers, I did not do that in an attempt to wrap up our inaugural month here at 451 Press with a no-holds barred article encompassing ALL POSSIBLE types of relationships. In fact, the thought of that article alone is exhausting enough to lay me flat out this afternoon—unable (and unwilling) to tackle any of the afternoon’s activities.

Call it karma, or a complete brain malfunction not to check my calendar. Or, to quote a truly funny line from a recent reality show episode I caught—“I think god got drunk today.?

This afternoon is an ambitious undertaking. And, I plan on diving right into it with only one thought: All the relationships I mentioned above are secondary to my primary concern this afternoon—the fun my little goblins will have!

You’ll see the next chapter of “Halloween? after the festivities…Keep those fingers crossed, friends for a spooktacular afternoon! (Oh, that was corny!)
