The Born Loser by Art and Chip Sansom for October 31, 2021

I’m sure HH will sleep with all the lights out tonight.

After eating all that candy there’s no way he’ll fall asleep.

Lions and tigers and bears!! … Oh my!!!

/SHMIRK/

I bet he is really making sure no one sneaks in and steal his candy.

He is also scared that your going to be coming into the room to loot his candy stash after he falls asleep.

Cue the thunder storm.

Yeah. I’m not afraid of heights, I’m afraid of hitting the ground from one.

Happy Halloween!

better yet, let’s light a campfire in the middle of the bedroom floor…

Always have a nitelight because when I have to get up at 3am and go to the bathroom I do not want to trip over furniture, shoes or the bone the dog left right by the side of the bed.

yeah, I get that feeling too. too bad my room is snowing most of the year so they wouldn’t want anything to do with my room. ;)

Not the Boogieman, but the one they send to kill the Boogieman.

could be wanting to leave a clear path to the bathroom …

You are not alone. We all do at times. Sweet dreams……

Makes sense to me!

I’m not afraid of heights, I’m afraid of falling from them. (ditto for airplanes)

Try turning the lights off at night and stare at something in the dark. It’ll start looking like it’s moving…

I used to tell myself as a child that just because I saw a very scary movie, that didn’t mean I was more likely to have an intruder of any kind. Logical, but hard to stick with all night sometimes. As I got a bit older, all the horror movies were comedies to me anyway. I think on Halloween night it wasn’t so hard to fall asleep due to tiredness.

Hey Brutus, cut back on Wilberforce’s candy. Have a great Sunday.

There’s nothing in the dark that isn’t there when the lights are on.

That’s a sentiment that I can appreciate now that I’m a full-grown, reasonably mature adult. In my younger days, I couldn’t quite grasp the logic of it, to calm my fears. So yes, Wilberforce, we’ll leave the light on for you.
