First day of November

I'm supposed to be taking a shower while Dave has the troops out for a walk, but instead I decided to go online, join nablopomo, and then stick a button for it on my sidebar proudly announcing my intentions of posting everyday this month, except it wasn't showing up because I didn't close quotes on the link for the button and it took me fifteen minutes to figure out that's what the problem was.

I think I have post-Halloween depression. Halloween is totally my holiday. I love it. Love the costumes, the decorations, the candy. Except this year, probably because it was so hot I sweated through most of the 31 days, it felt more like the end of summer instead of October. Halloween just kind of snuck up and then poof it was gone. As Sally says "I want restitution!"

And so, although I decided a few weeks ago I wasn't going to do nablopomo again this year, earlier today I changed my mind, figuring that focusing on the prospect of having to come up with something interesting to say every day of November would help lift me out of my funk. You know what else is going to help? A conference on the couch with the bag of fun size Butterfingers I wouldn't let Dave bring in to work today. Hel-loooo golden wrappers full of goodness!

My friend Michaela's in a post Halloween funk too. My sympathies.
