THE HAUNTING RECOMMENCES  
So in the past two days, Something in the house has:

1. Sampled my new trail mix? Or at least left the bag wide open on the counter when it had been tied shut. The wire twisty is now nowhere to be found. Joe thought nothing of it at the time, as he'd assumed that I'd been snacking on my (brand new) mix.

2. Turned my iPod on. I thought at first Joe's phone was ringing or something, but no. The iPod that I'd put on the bookcase hours earlier had spontaneously started blaring Crying Nut's "Grasshopper."

I don't know what this means except that some spectral third roommate enjoys hippie nosh and K-punk. At least I can't fault its taste. XD

What do ye think, flist? To seance or not to seance?

Not to seance. If it's not scaring you or making a mess, don't bother it. You don't know what could happen. A mildly mischievous ghostie is one thing, but you don't know what else is just waiting around for someone to misuse a Ouija board.

... Don't mean to sound ominous. I just take these things pretty seriously.

Yeah, we've decided to live and let... be, for now. So far no other noticeable occurrences! Though from the tiny squeaks that have been issuing from his cage, my wee dwarf hamster Escha sounds like he's been having nightmares. 8'{

Aw, poor lil hammie. But you don't know if that's related. Even though astronauta is ambivalent about whether her Catholic foreboding for seances and such is just a hangover, take it from a pretty unorthodox Catholic: We've got the right idea about this one. When a doctrine is as simple and practical as "Don't you fuck around with things you don't know about," it's hard to argue.

What Colleen said. Besides isn't this the way several of those Paranormal activity movies started?

NO THOSE KIDS WERE HAUNTED FROM CHILDHOOD AND IT FOLLOWED THEM EVERYWHERE. I can't remember if they ever explained why the sisters were targeted, though I haven't seen the third one.

"Once a Catholic, Always a Catholic..."

I vote against a seance. I do not want to lose you to some demonic entity, even though I'm still not sure if I believe in them. #agnostic

i no, rite? I still harbor some pretty deep-seated leeriness of ouija boards even despite over a decade of paganitude. >_<;

I wouldn't commence a full-out séance, not at first; you might try some nonchanneling communication, like a "Hey, if you're here, lemme know, we can work something out." I mean, if it's bothering you, I'm a cleanse-first-ask-questions-later kind of guy, so that's what I'd do, but I know most of our friends don't mind spirits so long as they're quiet. I do think that you're probably experienced enough to deal with whatever happens, but if you need me, I've certainly got plenty of experience, as most of why Aperture is not a place of chills and darting shadows is my influence.

If you're feeling particularly charitable, you can build a spirit house.
