Spooky Skeleton

I love the spirit of this spooky season. Yes, it's not quite October, but when Halloween hits the grocery stores you can't help but feel like it's here already.

Though there will be more to come, I'm sure, I will recount the first spooky oddity I encountered this season.

While parked outside my work eating a quick lunch before I had to go clock-in, I noticed something that at first warmed my Halloween-loving heart. One of the neighboring houses had already caught the Halloween bug. However, instead of a nice festive wreath hanging on their front door they had a lovely skeleton.

At first I thought it was a quaint holiday decoration, but then thought twice. When you hang a skeleton on your front door in early September, still two months away from Halloween, you accomplish sending the creepy message in an unintended way.

Like most people would, I concluded that these people must not be celebrating Halloween at all. They were simply enthusiasts surrounding themselves with things they love. Skeletons, bones, dead grass, dead people. Just showcasing their hobbies. These people just didn't believe in burrying their . . . talents. The right thing to do is nail them to the door.
