[thrill]ing

Tonight, "Thriller" by MJ has been on the brain, and not the whole song, but rather just the creepy monologue at the end, the beats, and the "hoo hoooos".  I love that song!  But it feels like such a Halloween song to me... not one for the middle of July.  But then again, I'd imagine that it's a bit silly for me to only think of zombies as occuring around the time of Halloween, because if they are going to ::occur::, then it would probably be year-round.  So perhaps this song is relevant to any time of year?? 

Anyways...

I think what brought it on was this picture.  I made it extra dark, and it has the whole ghostly feel to it, which could bring on the Thriller song, or that song by Stone Sour, but I went ghostly instead of whiny.  Go figure.  hah.

It's my hubbies birthday today!  I met him for lunch and we went to La Madeleine!  Tres magnifique!  ;)  And I picked up the latest issue of Mental Floss and some mini treats from Whole Foods for his official "birthday gift", and then we headed out to dinner and Bingo with his dad and brother.  We met up with a whole bunch of people from my work at Bingo, and we all had a great time!  It was full tonight, which made it fun, and we shared a lot of laughs.  We're working our way to that whole "winning" thing, and are looking to get lucky soon.  (Insert wink here).

Bon nuit!

Oh, and here are Michael Jackson's lyrics for Thriller:
It's close to midnight and something evil's lurking in the dark
Under the moonlight, you see a sight that almost stops your heart
You try to scream but terror takes the sound before you make it
You start to freeze as horror looks you right between the eyes
You're paralyzed

'Cause this is thriller, thriller night
And no one's gonna save you from the beast about strike
You know it's thriller, thriller night
You're fighting for your life inside a killer, thriller tonight

You hear the door slam and realize there's nowhere left to run
You feel the cold hand and wonder if you'll ever see the sun
You close your eyes and hope that this is just imagination, girl!
But all the while you hear the creature creeping up behind
You're out of time

'Cause this is thriller, thriller night
There ain't no second chance against the thing with forty eyes, girl
Thriller, thriller night
You're fighting for your life inside a killer, thriller tonight

Night creatures calling, the dead start to walk in their masquerade
There's no escaping the jaws of the alien this time
(They're open wide)
This is the end of your life

They're out to get you, there's demons closing in on every side
They will possess you unless you change that number on your dial
Now is the time for you and I to cuddle close together, yeah
All through the night I'll save you from the terror on the screen
I'll make you see

That this is thriller, thriller night
'Cause I can thrill you more than any ghost would ever dare try
Thriller, thriller night
So let me hold you tight and share a
Killer, diller, chiller, thriller here tonight

'Cause this is thriller, thriller night
Girl, I can thrill you more than any ghost would ever dare try
Thriller, thriller night
So let me hold you tight and share a killer, thriller, ow!

(I'm gonna thrill ya tonight)
Darkness falls across the land
The midnight hour is close at hand
Creatures crawl in search of blood
To terrorize y'alls neighborhood
I'm gonna thrill ya tonight, ooh baby
I'm gonna thrill ya tonight, oh darlin'
Thriller night, baby, ooh!

The foulest stench is in the air
The funk of forty thousand years
And grizzly ghouls from every tomb
Are closing in to seal your doom

And though you fight to stay alive
Your body starts to shiver
For no mere mortal can resist
The evil of the thriller
