Yeah... but I got a bat.....

Its All Hallows Eve. Pumpkin hunting season is in. Time for our Annual solstice to celebrate all things chocolate and creepy. So we are trying to be good neighbors, and to participate and make this holiday fun for the kids etc.

We did some decorating. You know spiderwebby, scarecrowy, kind of things. Well we got this neighbor. Of course there's one in almost every neighborhood. Not to take anything away from this guy; cause as per Halloween he's it.

He has turned his yard into a cemetery. Bats, Buzzards, Zombies, Grave Stones, you name it. He's got a gate encircling the yard with the bars bending such that it looks as though the dead have made a hasty return from the after-life. Its cool. Usually people incorporate such zest in Christmas decorations. Not him. I don't recall if he puts up a wreath. Maybe he should put a sign up with a little devil saying "He's the reason for the season".

So I got this bat. It flies. In a circle. Its not real or trained. Its just battery powered and flies in a circle. Oh and its eyes glow. RED. SCARY RED. Makes me feel sort of inadequate in a costumy Halloweenie sort of way. But then maybe he's just over compensating for some Necrophilia issues. Yeah, that cheers me up. I feel better about me. And my bat
