haunted haus

so I'm making some extra cash working at a haunted house in the city for the next 4 weekends. last night was the first night, and man I'm beat after getting back at 12 last night and up to volunteer at 9 this morning...
I was made up with white face and black around my features and eyes etc, and wearing some torn up clothes as a costume, and basically it's exactly what you'd imagine. you're hiding around a corner in wait of a group to come through to jump out and scream etc...meanwhile a bunch of noise,smoke machines, screaming and slamming going on all around etc..crazy haunted house music playing loud etc...the usual I guess for a haunted house. i got about every other group coming through pretty good. some groups just sort of stay on the target of getting out of each room, and some are dopey kids jsut going through going hey dude I see you etc...whatever. overall it's pretty exciting and goes by pretty fast.
I'm in a sort of hallway area. today it's finally some sun out here in OKC, i got back from the gym jsut now and am going to chill until I go back up to the park for tonight.
i don't know if I ever mentioned I was trying to move to AR about 4 years ago, and I put a bid on a house there at 140k which I couldn't really afford at the time, but my house never sold here in okc so it didnt' work out.... well anyway, that was pretty much my dream house. Thing is, now the young married couple w kid that bought the place (at 142k), well he was the guy I wrote about a week ago that went "back" to being gay and left his family and went to CA, and then she moved out cause the bank forclosed, now it's going for 95k and it's killing me. but I gave up owning the property long ago, I actually have my marreid bud up there interested in maybe buying it for his little family..... we'll see. my other friends up there are telling me to buy it myself and move up there and get a job etc... nah, I'll stick with okc fer now, thanks.

Sucks about the house. Maybe in another year or two it'll be available.

And about working late...12 ain't shit! I'll be lucky to get home by 4AM tonight/tomorrow!

Hang in there bud.

Do not buy stuff you can't afford. If only Americans knew how to save your country wouldn't be in the crapper it is now.

BTW, I feel sorry for the wife and kid. Like what I've been saying, ya can't stop male homosexuality.
