I suppose the fact that I was born in October is among the reasons it’s my favorite month and always will be. I remember a lot of happy birthdays. I remember going to a WWF arena show for one of them, getting to curse out Bobby “The Brain” Heenan live and in person. I remember my mom making me my preferred birthday cake: chocolate cake with chocolate frosting, decorated with candy corn (I like candy corn, judge me as you will). And I remember one of my friends spoiling the punchline on my birthday card before I’d opened it. Fucking Jed. I wanted to find out that the grim reaper was only here for the cake myself, thank you very much.
