You Just Had To Ask Her, Didn’t You?

Sometimes when I join in on Flashback Fridays I find things I forgot about and I’ll go over them and think- wow, that was kind of cool.

Then there are things that I look at and think- Anita, what the Heck? But those are the posts that I like the best because they’re strange and weird and I enjoy them.

Here’s one of those little weird ones reposted here For Fandango’s Flashback Friday

First Posted  August 20, 2018

I  can be

sad

and happy

macabre

and delightful

all at the same time.

 

I am like

a stained glass window

caught in the walls

of an abandoned church

where ghosts  and demons

play cards and shoot dice

at Midnight

for fun.

Daily Addictions Prompt: Fuse

Purple Monsters and Other Scary Things

RDP Friday: PURPLE

I’m always looking for ways to kick start a story,this is one way I do it- in a pinch I Google.

It’s not full proof though. Do you know what happens if you Google Monsters/Scary/Purple  because you need a little inpirsation? Nothing happens. That’s what you get. Nothing except for fuzzy cute monsters and that’s not what I am going for at all.

However, if you go to Google Arts and culture, open your mind and you explore the art collection by color you will score in a big way- I’ve posted my finds below.

Also if you go to YouTube and are willing to nose around under the same description- but you know that there’s at least one song out there about Purple People Eaters you might get lucky and run across something new like this:

Mekheski – Moon People
Nicholas Roerich1915/1915

The Lucky Hand (scene 1) Arnold Schoenberg1910

The Merry-go-round Walter Spies1922 – 1922

I think lightning is pretty darn scary so I did find this with a little effort:

 

 I used a color to give the Muses a place to start working from and it works most of the time- and it’s fun. Have you tried it?

and here is a post I wrote last year about the fun I had carving a Pumpkin because I have been eagerly checking out the Pumpkin field I drive by everyday and I’m looking forward to doing a little carving SOON so here’s my carving adventure from  2021:

It’s Called:

“I Used A Big Knife”

I decided to carve my pumpkin because I wanted the seeds. Still. I almost stopped here because  I thought it looked pretty cool at this point:

I was standing there, staring at that big knife stuck in my pumpkin and something in me

wanted to keep cutting. I blame feeling on all of those Halloween movie ads that are

playing all over the place.

I’ll ‘fess up. I gleefully  went with my gut and started to cut away and before I know it

it was time to pop the top.

At times like this you know an autopsy saw and a hammer w/ hook would come in handy.

Surgery is going fine this point and the patient’s vitals are pumpkin-ish and holding steady.

Post- Op Update.

My dog, Hamish Macbeth, tried to eat the patient. I made him dress up like a butterfly so he’s having issues right now
