Happy Halloween

So I somehow managed to survive a very difficult week. I literally made my self sick trying to edit my Chaucer paper. Even after I went to the academic support center for help revising it. I stayed up all night Monday and rendered myself useless on Tuesday and never fully recovered for the rest of the week. Friday I had an exam on Latin word roots that I would have done much better on had I not spent so much time trying to write the Chaucer paper.

I don't think professors should give exams on Halloween day. It isn't fair to parents. I had a breakdown at BJs Whosesale Club on Thursday night after the cashier refused to look up my card number without my license.

She sent me to the service desk where I burst into tears and told him that my little girl wasn't going to have a Halloween costume because of my disorganization. Fortunately, the customer service manager took a pity on me and looked it up anyway. I really don't see what the big deal was since I had three other forms of photo identification.

Halloween was a success as far as I am concerned. Patrick was a happy camper and we went back to Charlestown where we got to see some old friends. We brought my aunt who lives in the neighborhood but had never seen how everyone really gets into things around there.


Patrick dressed up like one of the Incredibles from the Disney movie. This is one of the houses near the Bunkerhill Monument. The decorations were unbelievable.
