I'd Rather Celebrate My Birthday

It's Halloween today and aside from bear wishing me a happy Halloween this morning, followed by a "here's to many more happy Halloweens together", I think it's safe to say I'm not feeling festive in the slightest.  While I realize I blew a lot of your minds with my post about why I hate Halloween, it seems there's another blogger out there, one of the queens of blogging to be specific, who is also not a huge fan of this day. So, boom goes the dynamite, I'm not an alien after all. (Or maybe I am?)

Today I'm joining Erin (Not my Erin, the yellow one!) in discussing a few things I'd rather do than celebrate Halloween. 

One. Crack open a fresh box of wine, shove a 9-er of Bagel Bites in the oven, turn down the AC in the Princess Palace to 68, pop in a solid RomCom from the 90's, and snuggle under eleventy blankets. Now that, my friends, is far more appealing than Halloween. Don't even try to tell me differently. 

Two. As of tomorrow it's officially acceptable to start thinking about how much food I'm going to shove in my Chardonnay catcher on Thanksgiving. Well, that is, as long as my Thanksgiving curse stays far, far away this year. Give me all of the turkey and potatoes and no one gets hurt. 

Three. Share an entire pint of Talenti sea salt and caramel gelato with bear. You can keep your candy bars and questionably wrapped caramels because once bear and I get a taste of that gelato we. can. not. stop. eating. alllllll of the gelato. (And we wont stop.) There's absolutely no stopping halfway through the pint. 

Four. Celebrate my birthday again. Because I fucking love my birthday, that's why. I don't really need to get older, we can pass over that small detail, but aside from that let's just go ahead and celebrate my birthday again. Because celebrating birthdays is fun.

Five. Browse Pinterest for hours. Real talk, last night I bounced from food to humor to quotes to tattoos for the majority of the night and it was friggen incredible. Bear was busy doing his fantasy basketball draft, so while he and his laptop had that little date going on, I was next to them with my laptop and my glass of wine, pinning my little heart away. 

Six. Work on a new venture I've been investing a shit ton of time into and can't freaking wait to introduce here on le bliggity. Initially I was going to launch it today, because I'm the most impaitent person ever, but I really need to put more time into it to make sure it's a success, so now we all just have to wait a little longer. Ooops, that was a super Halloweenie (See what I did there?) tease right there, wasn't it? My bee.

Let's leave it at a solid even number. Because even numbers are just prettier, it's Science. 

Have a great Halloween for those of you who are excited to celebrate it. And if you're still in college, super slut it up tonight. DO IT FOR ME!
