Okay. So I promised that I would be posting every Sunday from now on. This is only the second week I should have done so, and I forgot . . oops! I'm a day late, but still sending it out :) Since I forgot, I was unable to complete any suggestions and will tell you about something instead.
I believe my new home is haunted. That's right, something otherwordly resides in my home (besides me). It does not make its presence known by the usual ghostly means such as moving items or columns of cold air. I am not awakened by ghostly moans or spooky apparitions. Out of nowhere, without provocation, I am haunted by the smell of barbecue sauce. I could be sitting on my couch reading, and out of nowhere I'll catch a strong waft. It's happened in the bedroom. I have checked and cleaned my entire home looking for a wayward glop of BBQ sauce spilled . . perhaps beside the oven? Under the fridge? In my cupboards? I have never found anything. Spooky . . . I know. The only conclusion I can come up with is that a BBQ sauce loving spectre has taken up residence. Perhaps he is trying to communicate. Perhaps he is in my face, pleading for directions to the nearest Tony Roma's with his ghastly BBQ breath. It's not unpleasant, I'm sure there are more frightening and inconvenient ways to be haunted. I just hope he finds what he's looking for. I'll leave my computer on so if he's looking for some good BBQ eats he can just Google it or whatever. I'll leave a Word document open while I'm at work and see if any messages appear from beyond. Then I'll report back.

Perhaps he is letting you know it's BBQ season? And you need a BBQ? Or maybe he was trying to get you to clean your place? Who knows what otherworldly motivations may be provoking such creative creepings! I await more from your ghostly pal...
I have a BBQ, its always BBQ season . . but my place usually could use a clean! I'm thinking someone should witness this so I can be sure its not in my head or a pre-stroke symptom or something.
Maybe someone died a horrible BBQ sauce related death? Maybe some young man lived there before you and he tried to create the best BBQ sauce known to man. One day he reached his goal - but just before tasting the BBQ sauce laden chicken wing, he had a heart attack and died. Now the smell of the sauce lingers. His spirit is unable to rest because he lost his chance to taste BBQ sauce perfection.
