Little Halloween today!

Post by Andybev01 » Fri Feb 13, 2026 12:29 am

I'm caught up with appointments and chores in advance of Friday the 13th.

I have popcorn and plan on od-ing on spooky TV and movies tomorrow.

All you that doth my grave pass by,
As you are now so once was I,
As I am now so you must be,
Prepare for death & follow me.

I hope that everybody enjoyed Little Halloween.

We had a scary Valentines themed party for the kids and their friends, everybody was dressed in costumes and they also handed out Valentines cards to each other. There was one kid around 8 years old dressed as a werewolf, and he was crushing on my wife for the whole party, he was following her around and watching her, and eventually he went up to her and gave her a card and some chocolates. She thanked him and he stood there awkwardly for a moment before he walked away, I honestly think that the kid was expecting a kiss from her. :lol:

I pointed out to my wife that he has a crush on her and she just smiled and said that he was just being nice. So I teased her and said ... Hey, at least he's trying ... I mean, who wouldn't want chocolates from a werewolf? :lol:

Andy, did you make that picture?

I'm afraid to admit that I may have developed an unhealthy addiction to Grok.

Did I make it? technically no.

Did I tell an algorithm what I wanted, yes.

Your spooky Valentine's party sounds like it was fun, too!

We did nothing special for Little Halloween or Valentine's, but my daughter took me out to the movie Send Help on Sunday, which is billed as a horror comedy. She enjoyed it more than I did, I fear. For one thing, I think she went into it knowing better what to expect. It had some scary and even gruesome moments, but I didn't find much of it very funny. I mean, it had its moments. But I think my main issue is that I didn't really like either of the main characters, although I like both the actors. But the guy was a jerk and the woman was downright psychotic, and I found myself sympathizing at times with first one and then the other. Maybe it was more of a satire than a comedy, because it kind of keeps you at a distance from both characters. And I guess the ending, which I won't spoil in case you want to see it, was meant to make some comment on our society today.
