Early one morning in hot old Texas, walking down the street, I stopped at a house to get a drink. Then when I whent back to the car . . . it was full of snakes. They must have got in the roof. After I chased the snakes out of the car, I got in and drove home.

When I got home there were snakes in my backyard. I called the animal control. They took them away. Then something was in my house. It was a giant squid. I was scared. I didn’t know what to do. All of a sudden I wroke up it was a dream.

Then the lights were on . . . the oven was cooking something . Whatever it was it smelled awful. It was skunk. Then I looked again . . . and the skunk was my dad, and the snakes were my cousins, and the squid was my mom. They were all wearing costumes. (AN: What the hell?)

I ran into my room and got on my costum. I was pockahantas (AN: poor thing, trying to spell Pocahontas) for Halloween. I had a great time. Then it was bedtime for me. I dreamed about a fairy and a princess. The next day was normal and from then on every day was normal. (AN: As in, I lived happily ever after?)

Written: Had to be Age 7 because that’s when I was Pocahontas for Halloween.
