Rob and I went to the haunted house here in our city, the Rotting Flesh Factory. We waited in line for almost two hours to get in, but in the end I think it was worth it. I almost lost my voice from all the screaming, but that was to be expected. The line was moving pretty fast during the last hour of our wait, but then it stopped because someone had to be taken away in an ambulance. I had to admit, I started getting pretty nervous when I saw that. 
As we were getting close to the entrance, I had to go to the restroom but I didn’t feel like using the port-a-potties. They’re so disgusting and very unhygienic. I just hoped that I wouldn’t lose control of my bladder while in the haunted house. 
Anyway, we entered the haunted house with three other girls who were in front of us. I’m really glad that they were first because they pretty much got the worst of it. I think the one that scared me the most was the room that was completely empty (or so we thought). I had told myself never to turn around, but for some reason I turned to look back behind me and I just started screaming like mad. It was a guy that resembled Leatherface, and he was wielding a chainsaw as he jumped out of a dark corner and started running towards us. I really felt sorry for the girl in front of me, because I kept pushing her as I tried to escape the room. She was going much too slow for my liking, especially when Leatherface was running after you with a chainsaw!
I hated the feeling of anticipation, and just waiting for something to pop up and scare the living daylights out of you. I know my boyfriend absolutely loved it. He lives for things like this. The other room that I hated was the one with clowns. I absolutely hate clowns, and I can’t even look at them in real life without picture blood coming out of their mouths or something. Thank you Stephen King, for instilling my fear of clowns. 
I closed my eyes through most of that room and managed to get to the next room without looking at them. Rob said that one of the clowns was dripping blood and coming dangerously close to me, and I’m thankful I had my eyes closed. I think I would have soiled myself on that one.
Anyway, there’s another haunted house that we want to go to. It’s two stories, and it’s supposed to be much more terrifying than the one we went to last night. Hopefully I can survive that one. So, have any of you guys gone to haunted houses? Were they scary, or not worth the money you paid to get in?
I am a big idiot. I broke my Wordpress last night while doing useless crap. By the time I realized what I had done, I had to install Wordpress again from the beginning. I really should learn to quit while I’m ahead and not try and fix things that aren’t broken to begin with. 
Britney lovers get ready to bash on me all you want, I don’t care. I saw her new video for “Gimme More” last night…wow. I thought her performance at the MTV Music awards was a bit lacking, but this video was absolute torture to watch. Yet I couldn’t tear my eyes away; it was like watching a bad car accident. Jake Sarfaty, what were you thinking? This may have ruined your career before it even started. I don’t know whose idea it was for the video (my guess would be Spears), but whoever came up with it must have been on crack. I get that she was playing dual roles or whatever, but it didn’t make sense. The “good” Britney was watching the “bad” Britney hump the mirrors and pole dance in an outfit reminiscent of the one she wore at the music awards. Only she had a tattoo on one of her biceps this time. Ooh, that’s so tough-looking! The lights they flashed around Britney throughout the video made it seem as though she, and everyone dancing with her, were high on drugs. Come to think of it, that video looks like it belongs in the eighties, when bad lighting and out of focus cameras were all the rage. It did not make the video look “raw and edgy”. It made the video looked as if it were produced by an amateur who was messing around with all kinds of video effects (sorry Jake, the truth hurts).
The only thing about the video I liked was the fact that she looked that good after having two kids. Sure she isn’t a size 0, but she looks normal. She has some meat on her bones, and she looks healthy. I think she looks great, even though her choreography was not up to her usual standards.
Look, I think the song is okay. It’s catchy, and I even find myself bobbing along to the beat when it comes out on the radio. I just think that the video could have been done much better, compared to the past videos that Britney has done. I understand she’s going through a lot, but who isn’t? She’s not the only one with problems, and there are people out there with much worse problems than she has. She needs to grow up and realize that life isn’t going to be easy all the time. You’re going to fall, and fall hard sometimes. She should focus on one thing, her career or her kids. She can’t do half-ass jobs on both and expect to get away with it (especially with her kids). In my opinion, I think she should have stuck to raising her kids instead of trying to make a comeback when clearly that isn’t going to happen like she hoped.
So here’s my verdict: decent song, craptastic video. Major disappointment. What do you guys think?
