I used to live in a haunted house. It was haunted by the previous owners. Go here and read this: The Haunted Money Pit. One time when I was home alone with my three little terriers I heard someone upstairs. The dogs all started barking and running around in circles. When I went upstairs to check it out I found a yellowed envelope on my wash stand. I stuck it in a drawer and did not think about it again. Last year I was going through some boxes that had been sealed since I moved out of that house five years ago. I opened the envelope and inside of it was my picture with a yellowed and brittle piece of paper which only said one thing “safe”. I wonder what that meant?  Do you think he was playing baseball in my bedroom and had a close call?

Where I live we don’t’ get trick or treaters. So will someone please tell me why I have this uncontrollable urge to buy the 47 pound bag of mixed candy at Costco?

We had one heck of a wind storm here this week. Trash cans were blown down streets, palm trees laid on their sides. Can someone tell me who left the bathroom window open and caused a sand dune of epic proportions to form in my bathtub?

Have you ever noticed that shopping carts seem to travel in gangs? Hey have you ever noticed Wal*Mart has blue carts and Target has red? Hum….

My overheard this week came at the pharmacy. There was a man standing in line who had an eye patch. Behind him was an older woman.

Older woman to Mr. Eye Patch: So are you dressed as a pirate for Halloween?

Mr. Eye Patch: No, but that is a good idea. I have a corneal abrasion. Older Woman screws up her face: How did you get that? Mr. Eye Patch: I was drunk the other night and tried to take out my contacts. Older Woman: And that caused you to scratch your eye?

Mr. Eye Patch: Well, yeah, I forgot I had Lasik and don’t wear contacts anymore.

You know what I hate? Is when my dogs bring something dead up to the house and I can’t distinguish what it is. This morning I swear they were chewing on a part of a human skull that still had its hair on it.
