Jeepers Creepers!

So a few weeks ago I went to my first haunted house ever! Cool huh? I went to Nightmare on 13th Street! It was pretty cool. I would recommend it to anyone who want a scare or just a really cool experience. (Oh, and if you know you won't be scared, bring a girl! It's fun to watch them freak out!)

It was the night of Women's Conference. I was closing at the Nauvoo Cafe and it had been dead all night. So we started wrapping up everything just a little early. At about 7:55, five minutes before we officially close, a stampede of women come stamping throught the JSMB demanding food! (Ok, not exactly demanding but it's not like we could say no.) We had the longest line I have EVER seen at work. It poured out into the foyer and I could see no end... Just when I thought I saw it, I would see it just turned the corner or something.

I'm glancing at the clock knowing that my friends are waiting for me to come and meet them so we could go to the haunted house. (Plus, Colton was up here for Amanda's party and I would hate to miss time with him.) Well, at 8:40 we served the last hungry woman and we closed like mad men. We were out of there by 8:50. (That is three times as fast as the average time it takes to close.) I dashed home making it home at 9:05, took the quickest shower I ever had in my life, and made it to Marchele's house by 9:10. So I was only 10 minutes late.

We drove to the haunted house and got in line. In line there were some gouls and freaky things in line to get us in the mood. The girls in front of our group were so freaked out by one goul they almost didn't move up in line. It wasn't until Amanda told them that they would be ok, that they finally past him. As we walked by him, he did the cross snapping thing (Like, "no you didn't") I gotta say that was one of the funniest sights I've seen in a long while.

My favorite parts of the haunted house were: The tunnel that the walls turn and you get super dizzy. (LOVE IT!) Then there was this part where we had to press up against a wall as we inched across this tiny ledge so we didn't fall into the chasm, while inching across, the wall starts to tip and forces you into the chasm. (Which is just a mirror pressed up to the wall so it looks like we'd fall a really long distance.) Then there was a part where the walls come in and squish you, that was fun. Anyway, I see myself going to a few more haunted houses this year. It was super fun!
