Day of the Dead
Day of the Dead does not have to be celebrated on October 31st because the last thing a psychic medium such as myself needs to do is hang out in a graveyard. November 1st is a much better day for that. I want my ancestor altar to be done on a piece of cardboard rather like the vision board I’m supposed to get done too. I have pictures for my ancestor altar, thanks to my uncle Fernando. I’m working on my business plan today, because there is a shortage of work on Textbroker.com unless that changes when 9:00 a.m. opening rolls around.
Day of the Dead is a Mexican holiday in which the ancestors are celebrated from October 31st to November 2nd. However, I get paranoid in October because the veil is thinner between the worlds. Day of the Dead traditions include praying for the deceased. I have decided to engage in cross-cultural celebrations. I’m half-Spanish and half-Chilean, not Mexican to be clear but I want to have a Day of the Dead celebration. This involves going to the cemetery where Grandma and Uncle Alfredo are buried. I want to trance channel Alfredo’s dirty jokes if it is even possible to do that. I’d invite friends.
I’d have to get shareable food that can be eaten with the hands. I would make sure this event takes place on a Saturday. I’m not sure how I feel about filming it as my friend David Arv Bragi suggested I do on Facebook. My acne is popping up. And I feel like it won’t go away. I mean that makes me hide out from people who take pictures. I have two lumps on my chin that eventually go away but I’m worried because I use every acne treatment I have and nothing helps. I mean maybe its an emotionally-linked thing that I need to work on in therapy if I could afford therapy.
