I'm Going 38, Dan

Hey remember that one time I moved to Downtown Orlando and never looked back? No? Don't worry. This should jog your memory.

Everybody caught up? Awesome.

Nothing has changed. I still really love living downtown. Especially when terrific songs are recently released that get you super pumped up when you leave work and head home... to downtown... where you live.

Nooo not that "Downtown". That song is a classic, but if you recall, I said a "recently released" song that gets you "super pumped up".

THAT'S more like it!

Seriously y'all. If you need a great song to get your blood pumping look no further than this fun, genre-bending masterpiece.

These past couple of days leaving work you better believe once I got on the interstate I blasted this song through the speakers and sang along obnoxiously. It's completely over-the-top but it's so catchy and irresistable and I can't help but succumb to its awesomeness.  So I'm simply spreading the love. Listen to Macklemore's "Downtown". Better yet watch the music video. Then purchase the song and play it on repeat and annoy everyone around you. You are all very welcome.

The One NOT About Texas

I've been putting off a birthday/Texas update because I've been trying to figure out a way to add pictures to my blog from my iPad. Alas I still have no idea how to do such things. So today you will NOT hear about my amazing birthday week in the Lone Star state. Actually I have no idea when you will hear about that week. BUT! If you just absolutely have to know how incredible my week was, all you have to do is check out this link to my sistah gurl's blog. Her blog is so fancy. It doesn't look like a 2005 Xanga profile. Also she's quite possibly a better writer than I ever will be. So enjoy!

What I WILL talk about today is how frikkin excited I am for the Halloween season! That's right folks. Despite Orlando, Florida being a sunny, humid 90 degrees with a 105 degree heat index, the Halloween season is officially upon us. Both the Not So Scary parties at Magic Kingdom and Halloween Horror Nights at Universal have started, and I cannot wait to visit both of them.

I haven't attended a Not So Scary party in who knows how long. I believe the last time was with my family in 2009, and we all dressed like Black Eyed Peas. No, not the band. Actual black eyed peas. We all wore shirts with a giant P on them, and we all put black makeup around one eye. That's the kind of creative costumes the Moore family comes up with at the last minute. Be jealous.

Anyway I'm really excited to attend the party. I don't know if you've heard or not, but there's a new show at the castle stage this year. The Sanderson sisters from Disney's Hocus Pocus are showing up for the first time EVER. Good for Disney for finally realizing what a big deal these three are to so many people. I will admit I never watched Hocus Pocus growing up. It just isn't a movie the Moore family owned. However, despite how completely silly it is, it's grown on me over the years. And I have many friends performing in the show. So I am most excited to watch it!

Then of course there's Halloween Horror Nights. Which is just awesome. I don't think there's anything more to say about that.

OH! And all the horror movies!!! I've already started watching them of course. I watched all four Scream movies this past week. I love that series so much. Once October starts I'm going to watch at least one horror movie a day. I'll keep you posted.

So yeah. I'm gonna go now. *chants repeatedly* This is Halloween... Halloween, Halloween, HALLOWEEN!!!
