Howl's Eve

Watching the sun set, the guy ran towards his house, hoping to get inside, he knew that night was coming, and that the thing he dreaded the most would soon be here. He patted his calico cat as he was preparing to go inside, but just before he could get inside, a gust of wind blew and slammed the door to his house shut, his calico cat had just managed to slip inside, but the guy didn't make it in, he was alone, and couldn't find his house keys. As the guy was trying to sneak around to the back of his house, to see if the back door was open, he heard a growl and then another growl, the growl got louder as he got closer to the back of his house. The growl was coming from the trash can behind his house, the guy lifted the trash cans lid, it was him, the thing he dreaded the most, it was the neighborhood RACCOON! The guy started to panic, knocking frantically on his houses back door, his little sister saw him, and she opened the door, the guy ran inside, sweat all down his face, breathing heavily, he slammed his houses back door. The guys little sister looked puzzled, but she knew, they all knew....

    I had to laugh as I imagined what his sister and all the others knew.

    That was a surprise! I have a couple of raccoons that raid my bird and squirrel feeders at night! They can be ornery!

    Great fun, Joseph, you had me laughing! Even things like raccoons can cause a good scare! I once climbed out of our hot tub and almost stepped on a baby skunk! My husband said he's never seen me climb back into the tub so fast!! :-) Thanks for joining us for Halloween at 6SS!

    I wondered if this was based on a true thing that happened to you Joseph since I know you have racoons in your neighborhood, then I read that it was based on something true. Great story how you wrote it!

      Ya, partly, but I didn't freak out and start banging on the door. The only reason why I got scared is because I thought maybe that it was a dog, or a wolf growling, not a raccoon, but I think I read somewhere that raccoons growl too. I hope it was a raccoon... : )

    Joseph, you made me laugh. Sometimes the things that scare us are just funny in the end. I'm afraid of insects and will really run fast whenever I saw one, especially flying cockroaches ;o)

    True events, and so believable! My friends and I lost a whole canister of homemade chocolate chip cookies to a rampaging raccoon! Loved the ending, and glad to visit your site! Amy

      Funny, I once threw away a jar of peanut butter that I had been trying to clean out and spent hours trying to clean it out with water, but I was getting nowhere, so I decided to just give up and throw it away. The next day it was found wiped completely clean, not a trace of peanut butter on it! I think the raccoons did it! Thanks for the visit!

Toy Cars And a New Computer!

Image
Look at all of my toy cars! I was just organizing them before I put them into a different box, but I had to move them a little early to make some roof for my new computer! So back into the box they went! I've always wanted to arrange my toy cars like this since I was a kid, when I would see them arranged like this in toy car collector magazines and books, I thought it looked pretty cool. Anyway I had to get a new computer because my laptop's screen finally went out and it was becoming slow. It would sometimes take couple of minutes to load a webpage, so I knew I had to get a new computer. I got a Lenovo from Microcenter. It's refurbished, but it looks and works like new. Microcenter also gives you a keyboard and mouse, but it doesn't come with a monitor unless you want one, but it will cost you  a little extra. The whole computer with keyboard and mouse cost a hundred dollars with thirty dollar shipping, very cheap and works better than my laptop.  The rea...

White Lies

She smiled through her white lies as she wandered from table to table. Being a waitress was not one of her funnest jobs and she didn't feel like explaining the menu to every single person. "IS THAT FOOD GREAT?" "IS THAT FOOD GREAT?" "IS THAT FOOD GREAT?" "WHAT DO YOU RECOMMEND?" "They are all good!" she would say with a wearied smile. She didn't think that the food was all that good though, except for maybe the hamburger, but even that wasn't all that great either and she wanted to tell the truth, but it was her only job and she didn't want to lose it. Wandering and wandering through the tables day in and day out. Until one day she collapsed and it happened, the pasta fell all over the man in the suits shirt. "I ordered the food to eat it, not wear it!" Said the man in the suit with a sarcastic tone to the waitress. The waitress looked at the man in horror. "I'll..I'll...clean it up" she ...
