just in case
October 31, 2013
This morning, on my way back from the gym, I spotted a guy in a white suit, complete with white fedora. His face was covered in white, too, like he had one of those green screen body suits on, but in white. He was just standing there, expressionless in white, waiting for the bus.
Reader - I had a frisson moment. Then I remembered what day it is. Then gave him a mental "well played" and drove the rest of the way home.
But I just saw him again, walking around the park in our backyard. This time, he was accompanied by a man all in black who was holding an umbrella above the guy in white's head. With the drizzle, it was downright unsettling.
Yes, I know. A picture would be great right here but I don't have the technology to snap one with my phone. I've put my camera in my pocket. If I see him a third time, I'll snap a picture.
Unless, of course, he and his partner aren't just dressed up for Halloween and are really here to devour my soul. In which case, well, it's been nice to know you.
ETA: Because this is a small town, Jen. D. knows the soul stealer (aka "Brian") and provided a picture.
What a strange coincidence! That's my friend Brian, and for your pleasure (or disturbance), I've put a picture of him in costume on my blog today:

So he's not there to devour your soul. Sorry to disappoint, or happy to reassure you. Your choice.

That must have been VERY weird. Glad he turned out not to be a soul-eater. BTW, I mailed the mittens to you on Friday -- a day late, story of my life...
