Ghosts and Goblins

I woke up at 12:03 last night because this ghost came to visit me, uninvited. "Who are you?" I asked.

"I am the ghost of Christmas Past, and I have come to make you feel guilty." it replied.

"Are we talking about one special Christmas or all of them in the past?" I inquired.

"I'm referring to that Office Christmas Party back in the seventies, where you had such a good time."

"I don't want to talk about that!" I exclaimed. "And why do you think it is any of your business,
you are just a ghost, a nothing. Why don't you just float out of here and go haunt somebody else?"

With that, the ghost began to cry. "Boooooo hooo, boooooo hooooo." "I'm just trying to do my
job, and I've failed again."

"Well, I guess you don't stand a ghost of a chance with me, so amscray!"

And it was gone.

    I stole this ghost idea from Charles Dickens' The Christmas Carol.
    I was being silly again.
