I am not dressed up, and I don't think anyone else is here either... there is no magic in the hearts of those at this giant Research U.
There's more than one way to skin a cat. And I happen to know that's factually true.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Our wings are not tired.
I didn't dress for work. If I was going out of the office today I probably would have.
Also, Helena! Go you with the postyness!

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs
I'm wearing everyday black trousers and a purple sweater. But I also have a wonderful black witch's hat on my desk, with ribbons, feathers, and a couple of purple silk flowers.
Supposedly people in the office will bring their kids around for candy this afternoon. We'll see if my candy dish (currently filled with Dove dark chocolate singles, Ghiradelli dark chocolate squares with mint filling, and old school Hershey's milk chocolate bars) has anything left in it by then.

No one dresses up here, but they do allow time for people to bring their kids in. I thought about bringing the baby and then decided that I didn't want all those people breathing on her with so much flu around. We have the option of dressing her up as a bunny or an ear of corn tomorrow.

Smart people can be stupid too
Thanks tommyrot, that was precisely my argument! (y'know, made to myself... 'cause no one would actually challenge me on this anywhere except in my imagination).
I'm loving reading about peoples halloweeny outfits (and hope that the absence of magic is not accompanied by an absence of candy, Nora. That's just be cruel!)

Sox, I don't have permission to view your picture. Pout.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?
Y'all, the Bible conversation is gold. And, brenda, the added "put it in the freezer" is perfect! I used that phrase a lot and get funny looks from people.
Helena, nice delurking!!
My school has no magic in its heart. We barely acknowledge Halloween. No costumes, treats, decorations, nada. Being the drama teacher, however, I have taken it upon myself to give the day a nod. I'm wearing all my normal clothes...and a fake mustache. That's it. Just the mustache. Needed to be done.
Oh, and showing "Fear Itself" all day.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Can someone explain the reference to me?

It's from an episode of Friends. When Joey reads a book that gets too scary or sad, he puts it in the freezer for a while to cool off.
