I Have A Confession...

I am a Halloween Scrooge. 

I have never liked Halloween. Not ever.  That's not to say I haven't had some good Halloweens. There have certainly been years that turned out not to be the worst thing ever, but I really just hate Halloween.

In Utah it's always really cold by the end of October. Trick-or-treating was miserable. I don't even like candy. It hurts my teeth. The only thing I ever looked forward to was eating chili with saltine crackers at my grandpa's house each year. 

And I'd watch Hocus Pocus too. That's alright with me.

It looks like I'm not the only one that doesn't like Halloween. Erin from Living In Yellow has created a link up for today dedicated to all of the things that we would rather be doing than celebrating Halloween.

I would so much rather be...

1. Working out!  The gym is going to be deserted today.  The gym on campus is very crowded with people who do not know how to work out that do more socializing that actual working out. They take up space and make my work out more difficult...They won't be there tonight!

2.  Painting my nails. I'm a compulsive nail-painter. My nails are a different color each week. When I got to paint my nails for the first time after basic training it was like I had just had my first sip of regular coke after drinking diet for half of my life...

3.  Playing Candy Crush. I would far rather play this game where I crush candies and not eat them. But unfortunately I need someone to send me some tickets before I can do anymore candy crushing...

4. Making bitstips comics. Yep. That's real life. I downloaded bitstrips. It's totally a thing and it's actually  quite fun to create overly-dramatic comics of myself.

5. Pinning.  I have been doing an outrageous amount of pinning lately. I'm looking forward to my hair growing out, having a kitchen to cook in, and my new blog at the start of the new year!

Speaking of pinning...have you pinned it to win it?

I'm Katie. I'm a 20-something Soldier & student taking each day one step at a time. Living through all the growing pains that come with becoming that person that I always wanted to be & finding that bright side in all of this Camo-Colored Chaos. You can get to know more about me here.

Haha, I really like Bitstrips. They're becoming the new thing (which of course makes people complain about it) but I dig it!

I always want chili on Halloween. I don't know if my mom actually made it every year, but I feel like she did. I may have to make a pot this weekend! I'm not big into Halloween either, but I have kids, so I must act like I care.
