Welcome my friends to October 1, 2018 – we all know what that means. It’s time for Bacon’s Spooktoberfest! A month full of things that go bump in the middle of the night. The strange noises that vibrate through the house. The kind of eerie creepiness that settles in that you just want to run to your room and hide under your bed… Shivers. I almost scared myself. So friends stay tuned to my blog for excitement. This year, we are doing things a little different. We are writing a continuous story for 31 days of Bacon’s Spooktoberfest. So if you miss a day, you can catch up. Have a fun and scary month sweet friends.
And don’t worry, you can always hold my hoof.
Snorts – OMP – the Hotel Thompson all to ourselves. OMP – it’s going to be a blast. The food, the unlimited internet time, the endless phone calls and television time. Squeals with piggy excitement. We will all have our spots – Hemi in the big bed, Houdini in my bedroom and me in the living room. We will all have our own televisions – I’m so excited! I can finally watch all of my ghost shows without them being edited by mom/dad. It will be a blast.
I have to work on my ‘needs list’ for nana when she comes. You know like the basics – Cheerios, animal crackers, bananas, apples, grapes, my salad mix – you know all of the important stuff. And we can’t forget my popcorn – oh no. We *have* to have our popcorn. So there I was working on my list on my computer pounding on my keyboard when the internet started doing something stupid. It would go out and then my screen wold flash and then it would come back.
Gulps. And then I got this Haunted Connection message – what.the.cream.cheese was this about?! A ghost is interfering with my internet connection. Are you kidding me?! This has to be the makings of Hemi. There is no way the Hotel Thompson has a ghost or is haunted. Yeah – it’s Hemi. I’m not saying a word and I’m going to act like nothing is wrong. It has to be that trouble maker the cat.
Dear Bacon – I need some help. I experience a lot of road rage when I’m driving these days. Any suggestions? Signed Mad Cat
Dear Mad Cat – First of all let’s just start with, what the heck are you thinking? Step away from the back of the wheel. That might be the problem in itself. You should not be driving my furry little animal. Leave that crazy behavior to the humans.
Step away!
Dear Bacon – Just to show you, you’re not the only little four legged animal to be surfing the net. I’m forever doing it myself while the missus sits on the couch behind me watching television. Man, we can learn a lot from that internet, can’t we? Signed Dog in Charge
Dear Dog in Charge – You got that right my friend. The internet is huge. Some of the things I find are unreal! I’m glad to see you computer savvy. I may have to get you to write an article for my blog!
Dear Bacon – The humans – they are so funny… well they think they are. The master put this watermelon on my head and then called me a melon head. I don’t get it. Do you? Signed Melon Head
Dear Melon Head – I don’t get the saying but I do get the watermelon. I love me some watermelon. They can put it on my little head but it won’t stay there that long. I will eat that watermelon rind in about 3 minutes flat!
Yum – Yum!
Dear Bacon – As you know, when we find that comfy spot – we go for it. This is how the master found me. But I was good. Really, I was. Signed Contortionist Pooch
❤
Dear Contortionist Pooch – WOW – that is quite the pretzel sleep look you got going there. I’m all about getting into that one position that makes the Sandman come but that takes the top spot. I don’t really have that kind of flexibility with you know my pot belly and everything.
You actually might have a career in the circus with the way that you can bend. It kind of makes me hurt just looking at that position.
Dear Bacon – You know how they say people wear their hearts on their sleeves? Well, I wear mine on my hind quarters. What do you think? Signed Love
Dear Love – I have to admit I snorted and giggled. That was funny my friend. That is quite the birthmark you have there. I think it’s kind of cute. I like it my friend! Wear it with pride.
Life can be hard – really hard. With as much crime that is going around, I fear for mom/dad in their safety. I’ve done a LOT of research on this and found the perfect southern home security system. I saw an advertisement on the internet that was perfect. And it has to work, right? I mean everything on the internet is true – snorts.
So, friends fear no more. This is the perfect plan that was posted.
Go to Goodwill and buy a pair of size 14-16 men’s work boots.
Place said pair of work boots on your front porch along with a copy of the Guns & Ammo magazine.
Put four giant dog dishes next to the boots and magazine.
Leave a note on your door that reads:
Bubba,
Me and Marcel, Donnie Ray and Jimmy Earl went for more ammo and beer. Be back in an hour. Don’t mess with the pit bulls. They got the mailman this morning and messed him up bad. I don’t think Killer took part but it was hard to tell from all of the blood. Anyway, I locked all four of ’em in the house. Better wait outside. Be right back.
So last night, there I was in my bedroom. I was all cuddled up in my piggy bed with the lights out pounding away on my laptop working on some stories for my 31 Days of Spook. It was late. Everyone here at the Hotel Thompson was passed out – I knew because I could hear them snoring. Even that little Houdini brother of mine was sawing the logs. I kept having problems with my internet connection. For some reason, the internet kept dropping off from my laptop. Mom has shown me in the past how to reconnect it and refresh it. Nothing worked though on this night.
Finally I knew it was time to pull the sheets up over my head when I got this message. UUMM – I’m good. I think I’ll go to sleep now. Have you ever gotten this connection before on your computer? Shivers and squeals!
There I was last night all cuddled up in my Egyptian cotton sheet on my toddler bed in my bedroom. I was writing some stories and doing research for my 31 Days of Spook – which I hope you are enjoying. Someone sent me a video about selfies. I opened it and watched the video. Oh.my.piggy.heavens. Are you kidding me?! I peed on my bed. I can admit it. It scared me that much. You don’t believe me? Well, why don’t you watch the attached video in its entirety. It’s relatively short. Don’t say I didn’t warn you though – it’s not for the weak. Maybe you’ll think about it the next time you take a selfie.
Barks with puppy laughter. I bet that picture took you off guard.
Not that I’m eating from a bowl in dad’s hands – nope. Not that what I’m eating looks like popcorn – nope. I mean heck there’s even my little dog in that picture – nope. I bet that picture took you off guard because… wait for it… I’m naked!
That’s right – no clothes – what the cream cheese! Mom was taking naked pictures of me. Can you believe that? I will be ruined. This picture will now be all over the internet. My silver is showing. What is that woman trying to do to my reputation.
Until I can get this straightened up, please forgive me my friends. I need to find a way now to erase this from computer land and the internet. I gotta a lot of work to do. Hope you have a fantastic weekend. I leave you now with Jokes with Daddy. Enjoy!

There I was minding my own business surfing the night to find the answers to all the questions. That’s when I saw this picture. There you go my friends. That’s the answer. What? You don’t know what I’m talking about? Okay think about it. Go back in time when you were in school and you had that math class that asked the answer. If Juan had watermelons, how many could he fit in the car. Snorts with piggy laughter. Now you get it?
Happy Tuesday my friends. Sometimes we just need a little something extra to make us laugh, to put an extra step in our giddy up, you know just something to amuse us to make us chuckle. I have looked far and wide and found something that is guaranteed to make you smile.
I looked all over the internet in search for the one thing that you would look at and just burst out in automatic laughter. I think I found it. I showed it to dad – he almost fell off the couch. That was a good sign on the amusement scale. I showed it to mom. She was putting on make up and let’s just say the eye liner didn’t all go on her eyes because she was laughing so hard. I showed it to the purr things. Even *they* laughed hysterically!
So my friends, here is the test. Here is my pal that can be rented out at parties. He is guaranteed to make you laugh. Please get out your singles and have them ready for the entertainment. May I present to you – Stripper Tiny!
