WS moves to St.Louis this weekend so no baseball :( Wanna go up to Sleepy Hollow to get in the Halloween mood? Check out some walking tours, Horseman's Hollow, the Gothic mansion, that sorta thing?

One caveat: I get to go as a terribly pale, corpse-like version of myself.

Will you smell like a corpse?

[x-copycat.livejournal.com]

Sadly, I can't actually shift into rotting meat. I suppose I could try, just to be sure. Know anyone with a half-rotted, and/or desicated body laying about I could grope a bit? It would certainly improve authenticity, though I'm not sure Kyle would let you back into the mansion if you had Eau de Cadavre clinging to you. Just some perspective there.

Uhh, yeah, no, that's what I mean. No way I'm smelling like corpse! If you smell like a corpse in addition to looking like one, you're staying home. Or I'll drop you at a spa to see what kind of havoc you can wreak there smelling like corpse.

You really have no sense of adventure, Frost.

[x-adrienne.livejournal.com]

Do too do too! I just said I want to put you in a spa to wreak smelly havoc on them! How is that not adventurous?! And besides, I didn't say no to the corpsified version of you taking a jaunt to Sleepy Hollow, just the smelly corpsefied version!

Fine. I promise not to bathe in the pig parts I just bought from the butcher shop in Chinatown beforehand.

[x-adrienne.livejournal.com]

Thank you. Throw them in a cooler and we'll put them in my trunk and you can bathe in them in the bathroom at the gothic mansion like a normal person :P And then I'll tie you to the roof of the car on the way home...

Maybe I should JUST bring the pig's blood. We could find an old gothic mansion that gives tours. I could find a conspicuous bathroom to take a nice dip in my blood. I should find a picture of Elizabeth Bathory for that.

Who's Elizabeth Bathory? Or is this going to turn into one of those stories that I wish I could sponge out of my memory afterwards?

[x-copycat.livejournal.com]

Didn't you teach history at one point? You've never heard of Elizabeth Bathory? Some legends consider her a vampire but really she's just your everyday woman who was concerned with her skincare regimen. It just so happens that she was also something of a serial killer. The first female one, I think it was. She slaughtered young virgin servant girls who worked for her and bathed in their blood. It helped her keep her youthful glow, you know. Ah, Hungarians.

Yes please. Also is there chicken noodle soup?

[x-adrienne.livejournal.com]

Uhh... at Sleepy Hollow? Probably not? Wait... are you sick?! You better be better by the weekend! If I won't let Vanessa get in my car smelling like a corpse, your chances aren't good being contagion-filled...

[x-adrienne.livejournal.com]

I did, but we don't live in Hungaria! I didn't teach Hungarian history! That is a pretty interesting story, though. I'm pretty sure my sister does something similar. That must have been where she learned it from... or maybe she really IS Elizabeth Bathory!

(P.S. yes I know it's not really Hungaria!)

Rest and fluids. My head feels like it is being squished.
