Greetings Infomaniacs,
I can’t believe that Halloween is next week already. Does
anybody have fun plans for the holiday? My plans are
building up already! I am going to a party this weekend,
then on Halloween I am going to take my godson trick-or-
treating, and then the day after some friends and I are
going to a haunted house. I haven’t been to a haunted house
in years, usually because I chicken out before I make it
inside. This year my friends are planning to drag me in, and
I plan on hiding behind one of them!
Enjoy!
Melissa
