Entry From Mom
Well I feel honored. Hello friends, family, and online friends of Megilina. I am TJ Sully, Megilina's adopted mother. I was asked to write an entry in Megilina's Journal. She is truely the sweetest woman you will ever know. I have been there ever since Megilina first met her vampire...I mean husband. I thought since this is all about baby, that someone should add an entry about how this baby's parents met. And because I have known Liam for a good five years and I have know Megilina what feel like her whole life (even though it has only been a year).
Ok, lets see....because I do alot of theatre work, I am gonna try my best not to be too dramatic, but hey...they met in a theatre, you gotta add a bit of drama. It was October 1st, 2005 that they met. I was giving Meg the grand tour of the theatre and the Haunt. I had just introduced her to Trisha-Lynn Young, and they started talking. They were in the process of becomming good friends. Then all the sudden, what looked like an extra vampire from Buffy VPS, a tall dressed in black man came into the prep room. I looked at Meg and she looked like she was ready to make a run for it. This guy had a black trenchcoat on with black leather pants and a black tank. I have known him for like four years, so it didn't phase me at all. When he started to take his trenchcoat and sunglasses off you could see that he had tattoos and red eyes. Meg looked at me like she was getting ready to pass out. He looked at me then looked over at her and you could see that he was at awe of what he saw. Meg was all dressed up in her firefighting uniform.
We started getting ready for the haunt. Megilina felt somewhat safe because she was going to be working the elavator (that was at the begining of the haunt). William was to be the sadist at the very end of the haunt in the torture chamber. in the torture chamber there was someone in a rack and two cage victims. about 20 min after we started for the evening, the producer of the haunt tracked down meg and asked her if she could scream well. after proving that she could, they said someone would take over doing the elavator and that they needed her to be a cage victim. Meg wasn't sure where the cages were because she knew that the "freak" was in the last room, so she tryed to say away from that end of the haunt. They put meg in a very beautiful yet revealing dress with fake blood painted on it, and a white cape that also had fake blood on it. I came to the prep room for a moment durring my break and I painted her face and neck with some fake blood to make it look like she had been tortured. Yet I didnt think to tell her where the cages were.
We sent her down this one hall and told her that she would go through 2 rooms and the third room was where she needed to be. She got to that room, she thought that was the coolest room of the haunt. There was blood spatter on the wall and chains strung from wall to wall. the cage victim that Meg was replacing helped Meg into the cage. She gave meg the basic cage victim 101. " when the people star comming in, warn them that there is a bad man in here and tell them to take you with them. then once the guy with the mask pops out start screaming as loud and long as you can, until the group leaves." Meg was like, "ok I can do that'. In between groups the rooms reset ant the "guy in the mask" had not returned to the room. Meg started yelling and trying to get the people to take her with them. I was able to walk with the group to see how she would do for her first group. the group was almost all the way through the room when all the sudden, from the exit of the room, this guys with a odd looking mask came running through with an axe. the group had already passed meg and I was standing by her cage watching as the group scattered out of the room.
The guy in the mask was about 6'4" give or take an inch with a mask that fully covered his head, black jeans, and his nipples peirced. Meg took one look at this 'creature' and was thanking god he was on the other side of the bars. I told them that they had a few minutes before the next group came through and that they could relax a bit. meg loosened her cape and the mask man took off his mask. Meg was facing the wall when she loosened her cape because she needed to also re-adjust her dress. She turned around, saw the mask man without his mask, and screamed bloody murder. Her screaming caught everyone off garud. the man in the mask was the same guy that had freaked her out in the prep room. She wanted out of that cage so bad. I couldn't help but to laugh a bit. I felt bad when I left the room to go back to mine. She was stuck in there the rest of the night. After the haunt was over and everyone came out of their spots to go back to the prep room to take off makeup and go home, she came over to me looking like she was gonna quit, and said " why did you leave me alone".
She did very well her first night. And being the person I am, I was pretty sure she would never be in that room again, so I told her not to worry, that was the only time she would have to be in that room. The next night came and she looked at the chart that showed the nights assignments.......she had both shifts as a cage victim. I felt so bad. She managed to do ok, she was scared to death of William, but she just closed her eyes and pretended he wasn't there. The third night, once again she got both shifts in there. that night they had a chair behind her cage so that William could sit inbetween groups. It came to Meg's break time, she went to crawl through her cage bars to go into the green room. She got halfway through her bars and then she stumbled and fell the rest of the way out of her cage. Right befor she hit the concrete William lept out of his corner and caught her. He helped her up, and as afraid of him as she was she stood there with him for a sec, just kinda looking at him. I was told they exchange a smile and then she left the room.
We were only running 3 nights a week. The next night that we came together to do the haunt, we looked at the chart and Meg had been assigned to the Evil Toys Room, twords the begining of the haunt. In that room, she was to wear an evil bunny suit. I went to go start my makeup, and meg took off to the other room. 45 min later, I hadn't seen her come back. Everyone got in their rooms and started warming up. Just then Meg walked by my room in a dress, with a white cape all covered in fake blood. She and William had talked the producer into re-assigning her to the torture chamber, permently. And that is how Megilina and William met and started their relationship. Rumor has it that the baby Megilina is pregnant with was concieved in that torture chamber, but you would have to ask her if it was fact. Anyways, that is how they met.

19 days and counting
We got 19 days to go, and I am officially on bed rest. It really sucks because I am such an active person. Night before last my brother and sister came from Sicily so they could help out, and make sure I stay in bed. They wern't gonna come till the 29th but oh well. I can be out of bed a bit, but not for very long time periods. I am not allowed to lift anything, including my daughter, I am not allowed to do chores, or make dinner. All I get to do is lay down, sit up in bed, or sit in a chair. I started to have some problems with my heart, so now i get to wear a heart monitor most of the day. Everything is going well so far. Jessicia and I went and got blankets for baby on saturday. We are ready to roll. We have furniture comming today at 9 am. Today we are turning the attic into 2 bedrooms. and we are gonna put the bed from the guestroom and on of the beds that are comming this morn up in the attic for Vincent and Jessicia. The we have another bed comming that will go in the guestroom for Liam's dad. So far, everything is going as smoothly as possible. lets hope it stays that way.
