Twas four score and a couple months ago when Caelin and I went to Halloweenfest at Great America. Little did we know that our party of Muwekma people were to disappear into thin air, much like a ghost or ghoul, and leave the two of us together. Caelin and I enjoyed hot chocolate and miscellaneous snacks while waiting in line for this ride, our excitement on the rise. We bonded and had a lovely time together, a true forging of a friendship. After leaving Great America, we tried to find the bus back to campus, but it was not for another 50 minutes or so. We walked all the way around to a Holiday Inn, waltzed in like we belonged there, and waited outside the locked entrance to the gym/pool facilities. A couple of old men were doing their thang in there for much too long, but finally left and we snuck in the closing door. Together we dipped our toes into the hot tub and soaked in the night air. When the time came to return, we walked out and tried to find the bus. IT WAS A GHOST BUS. We ran around desperately calling people and looking for any sign of this last ride to campus. No one was picking up and the time was coming to a close, much like Cinderella at the ball. After a very sketchy phone call, we found this dumb bus and got on in a flurry. Thank you Caelin, it was a lovely night with you <3
