I run with the wolves.

[flashback footnote] Does anyone remember Women Who Run with the Wolves? Then Pumpkin Masters came out with a wolf/moon pumpkin carving pattern which my circle used one Halloween. After watching our hallowed/hollowed pumpkins slump during the next week, we sadly concluded that we were more like the Women Who Run with the Pumpkins. [/flashback footnote]
