Dialogues from All Hallow's Eve Eve Eve Eve (10.29, that is)
Guy at social gathering last night: "So, when are you going to have another party? That last one was something else. Your dog was SO drunk. . ."
My internal monologue: "I invited this guy to my last party? Well, he was there, apparently, anyway. . .don't remember that, so much. . ."
Me: "Yeah it was really fun, wasn't it? Maybe I'll have one in the Spring, probably not before Christmas."
My internal monologue: "Moratorium on future batches of hunch punch, Miss Have You."
Halloween Ghost Tour Guide: "There are six hundred and sixty six victims of yellow fever buried in this mass grave. . ."
Me: "Are there really 666? Or is that just a dramatic number. . .?"
Halloween Ghost Tour Guide: "No really, there are 666. It's been documented."
Me, in my head, and later to my friends: "Documented in what? The ghost tour guide handbook to dramatic detail?"
Halloween Ghost Tour Guide: "One girl told me that she had been approached by the civil war ghost when she was using the bathroom in the Marshall House."
Guy on Tour: "Well, that's a good place to be, already on the toilet, if you're going to be approached by a ghost."
Halloween Ghost Tour Guide: "This is a really good house for a tour. It was the first house in the United States with indoor plumbing. There are (some number) rooms and one of them is perfectly round, but is actually square."
Me, in my head: WHAT?!?
The look on my friend's face showed that she was having the same amount of trouble digesting this little piece of information. The guide did NOT say, it seems round, but it's not. . .she said it IS round, but it's ACTUALLY square. Only in Savannah. . .
