Happy October!

When I woke up this morning, and trudged into the bathroom, I looked into the mirror at that handsome dude staring back at me, and noticed that my lips were turning a shade of blue. Yes, it was that cold! It could have only meant one thing:
October has come.
It sounds like October will be a pretty big month this year; the Red Sox in the playoffs, Halloween, and, possibly, a Bar Mitzvah!

Today, in school, I walked into homeroom, and noticed everyone holding cards, with Nick Blackmon's (a fellow classmate) face on them. As I was wondering why I didn't get one, I noticed a white envelope on my desk.
Bingo.
I tore it open, and realized it was an invitation to Nick's Bar Mitzvah. I wasn't sure if I wanted to go, because I don't really know him, but then I heard lots of people saying they were going, including my friends, so I thought, what the hey?
So, I'll probably go to that. As for Halloween, I realize I may be growing a bit too old for the whole dressing-up thing, but the rule in my house is that you don't go trick-or-treating if you don't dress up. So, I'm only dressing up this year for the candy. Hopefully I can just throw on a mask, and call it a costume. Last year, I was thinking the same thing, and I found these t-shirts at CVS that said, "This Is My Halloween Costume," and tried getting away with wearing that, but mom would have none of that. So, I went dressed as a nerd, with a pocket protector, big glasses, overalls; the works.
And, of course, the Sox; I predict we beat the Yankees (again), and win the ALCS this year... even though we've been kind of shaky lately. But, we just gotta do what we Boston-baseball fans do best during October; have faith.
Anyway, just wanted to wish you all a happy October.

Yours in awesomeness,
~Ry.
