Consider this the warning shot.

If I find that anyone dressed their pet in a Halloween costume this year, I'll come find you.

And may God have mercy on your soul.

Happy Halloween, everybody!

In more ways than one.

Chocolate.

How is it that it invokes a feeling of well-being when eaten? Is there some deep-seeded hunger that is only sated by chocolate? How is it that other types of confections and sweets don't have the same psychological oomph that chocolate does?

Ever wonder why the most successful candy bars have chocolate involved in them somehow? I don't. Think about it: Oreos. M&Ms. Baby Ruth. Butterfinger. What do they all have in common? Chocolate. That, and the inordinate ability to make you gain more weight then they actually weigh, but that's not important right now.

I was reading another blog, where the blogger mentioned that a birthday wasn't a birthday without chocolate cake. Notice what they did not say. They did not say a birthday isn't a birthday without cake. No. It was specifically chocolate cake that made a birthday a birthday.

Curious.

My sense of self has been violated.

Odd. I just found that someone else on the planet is using the same nickname that I do.

Not only that, but they chose it for the same reasons I did. So, not only am I no longer a single, unique entity in the digital world, I'm not even all that creative. Then again, given the circumstances surounding the name I've chosen (which I'm keeping queit) I wouldn't be surprised if I wasn't just one of a long string of people who at some point or another, have chosen the nickname that I have. This also makes me think that maybe, just maybe, there is someone out there who thinks like I do.

....................

Great. There went my ability to sleep for the next 48 hours.
