Evidence of how differently my children think--
Nate, sorts through his candy and arranges it by product. All the Reese's together, all the Twix, etc.
Abby, sorts through her candy this way: "I sorted my candy by corporation. I got a good deal more from the Mars company. If this was a common trend, then I predict they had a higher profit than Hershey or Nestlé."
She does this to me before coffee. Oy.
Barb, HA. That's awesome.
Kat, I love this one with the two Things chattering. Also, we have the same Snack Trap.
Timelies all!
We ended up with a decent number of trick-or-treaters, ranging from small kids with their parents to the teenagers, some of whom weren't really trying.(One kid wore a Santa hat and his regular clothes. I gave him candy anyhow)
The Things were adorable! Love the wigs and that Noah absolutely was not into them at all.
Barb, HA. That's awesome.
I just kind of stared at her and went "Uh-huh." I fear for any guy she dates.
So the cats have met. I would say that the mood is wary calm. Mad props to Clio, who somehow has turned into the most nonchalant cat in the world. She met growls and hisses with the tiniest little meeps you ever heard from a cat, all the while standing her ground. So far, Jake has been the one to back down from every encounter.
Skipping (though I'll definitely go back to look at pictures later!) to post that, accordsing to the Buffista Calendar, today is Ginger's birthday.
Happy birthday, Ginger! With lots of wishes for a great day and a wonderful year!

Happy Birthday, Ginger!
Hooray for Jake and Clio. May Jake find his zen soon.

She could handle my investments (if I had any)! Although she might need to do some interviews to find out what people tried to keep for themselves to make sure her data is accurate. There could be spreadsheets!
I had no trick-or-treaters which is not at all surprising since I'm in an apartment building with no children. I bought dark chocolate miniatures just in case, though.
