October to NaNoWriMo

I have never really understood Halloween.  Sure, as a kid it was great to dress up, walk around and get free candy.  But I've moved on a little bit past that.  Don't get me wrong, I can't wait for the day that I get to see my own kids dress up and go out.  But these days, i'm not quite sure what to do about it all.  So mostly i end up just hanging around and following a small crowd.  It tends to work pretty well.

But this weekend was pretty freaking sweet.  Friday night, I went with Alex and Kaitlin down to Layton to hang out with my friends Mandie, Abe, and Liz.  We had a fire at Mandie's house and Alex and I got into a wrestling match on her tramp (Resulted in a draw...lol).  We then had a late run to Taco Bell, and just hung out for the most part of the night.  Saturday, after i got off work, we carved some pumpkins in the afternoon and then went to the Aggie Basketball game.  I can now say my life is complete!  I had been waiting for that day since about 4 PM on Friday, March 19th when the Aggies failed to move on in the NCAA Tourney. 

 
The pumpkin Alex and I put our heads together to carve...pretty stinking awesome!
















BONUS!!  At the game I was offered the chance to participate in a time out activity where i would have a chance to win a free dinner for two at Texas RoadHouse!!  I WON!!!  It was pretty freakin sweet.

After the game (the Aggies smashed that French university from Canada), we went to a party at my neighbor's apartment then watched a movie.  It was chill, but it was a lot of fun.

NOVEMER is National Novel Writing Month (NaNoWriMo) y'all!  So, I'm joining with my roommate Sam and a bunch of our friends and I am writing a novel!!! I'm pretty stoked about it.  Updates should come periodically throughout the month.  But if anyone has ever had the desire to write a novel, go for it this month!  It's the perfect excuse.
