The Library: Rewrite

Part Part 3: Basement

by Roberta J. Cabot

So. Here I was. Alone in the library with my sexy, French-speaking ghost. I wanted to get out of there, but I wanted to find out what this was all about, too. I wanted to know. I NEEDED to know. Even if I had to ask the ghost.

My name is Mark. And this is the continuation of my Halloween story.

Part Two: Biker Chick

by Roberta J. Cabot

I used to be a boy scout. Yeah, yeah, you can shut up now. The only reason I mention this is because of the ghost stories that we told around the campfire. No, we didn’t roast weenies or marshmallows, but we DID tell stories. Stories about ghosts in the dark — scary-fun. But there’s no fun if you actually SEE a ghost. I saw a ghost. A French-speaking ghost, mind you. Pretty classy for a ghost, huh? Wonder if I’ll see her again tonight. Can you believe it? I have an appointment tonight. Well, at least she’s pretty hot.

My name is Mark. And this is the continuation of my Halloween story.

Does anyone know where the word/prefix "retro" comes from?   I'm sure many do, but I didn't so I had to google it.   Anyway, it's a Latin prefix that means "backwards" or "in the past."   Hence you now get words like "retrospective" or "retroactive" et cetera.   Last Monday, I indulged in a little bit of retro-ing.

It's 2:30am now as I start writing this - a dark, windy and rainy early Sunday (or is it late Saturday evening)   Appropriate, I guess, for what I am writing right now.   Yes, honey - this is a ghost story.   It's even true.   And I'm all alone right now, writing about it.

I'm sure you've had one of those. You know - one of those songs that refuse to go away, that keeps on rolling around in your head and you keep on humming or singing it for days on end. And, sometimes, you even end up "infecting" those around you, and they end up with the same song in their heads, too? I've had my share of those kinds of songs. And I have a new song to add to this list.

For the past couple of weeks, my roommate and I have been sort-of shut-ins, owing to my lawyer's recommendation to stay in for a while and my innate scaredy-cat nature. No going out, jogging, shopping, or eating out. The both of us were having a bit of cabin fever. Being all by myself was nothing new - being by myself didn't used to be a big deal. But, somehow, it is now.

Nope. This is not a commercial for a post in the Stories section or something like that, but a real, honest-to-goodness blog. So be cool.

Anyway...

Yesterday, I had my first jog in weeks. You would think that having started all of this jogging more than five months ago, it would be less of a novelty. But it still is, and I still enjoy it as a welcome change from my day-to-day, and not just a way to keep healthy. And I guess all of us have a bit of an exhibitionist streak (though I don't mean I go around jogging in the nude lol),

I arrived home at around 1PM yesterday, tidied up my place, did some laundry, went to my folks to drop off some "pasalubong", had some dinner out, and tried to get as much sleep as I can to combat jetlag & to recover from the more-than-twenty-four-hour flight (not to mention two transfers).

Glad to be home.

Anyway, I'm gonna post a long blog this weekend with a lot of pics (which I will "anonymize" - hope you guys won't mind), that I hope you'll like. Not too many Manila pics, but lots of pics of my Palawan weekend (which was mostly swimming, swimming and more swimming).
