I'm guessing it was about 100 kids. And all the teenagers were in costume. and Lots of the adults were in costume. And there were a couple of haunted houses in the neighborhood.
Have you ever been with a warrior woman?

My costume was suit jacket and pants, red shirt, green tie, scary clown mask made less scary by wearing glasses over the mask. And (paper)button that read "Derivative funds trader".

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Just watched a Food Network challenge with the subject of haunted gingerbread houses. The winner was a sugar skeleton crewed pirate ship. Some crabby judges, though. They didn't think it was haunted enough. Thing had vapour pouring out from the base and a mass of handmade tiny skeletons. How much more haunted can you ask for? It was freaking amazing. There was ocean and a lighthouse and just lovely sugar creepy.

Having just paged through 45 images of my high school friend ( and bad crush)'s FIVE adorable children, let me just say: thank god we stayed friends. Beautiful kids, as I knew he would have a hand in. But not mine, thank god.

I think she's adorable and that the camera loves her, but I'm biased.
Dude, no. Your child is ridiculously "I will dominate your face!" photogenic.

Favorite client: pays bills not only on time but early. Easy to get along with always appreciative. Never bargains, so I find excuses to give her discounts so she is not paying a higher rate than pain-in-the-ass clients who are hard to work for. Decided I ought to give her some sort of gift.
Problem: she runs a one person office, and I know she gets hit on a lot by vendors which creeps her out. So I think no chocolate, no wine or booze, no candy, no flowers nothing that could feel too personal. Something that shows appreciation for a good client but with no vibe. Given the circumstances I need to choose something that is really unambigous about being a gift for a good customer, and not overly personal.

Something office related. A nice pen, like maybe the fancy wood ones, for example.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

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

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
For some reason, Halloween made me think of "Dogs in Elk", and so I just went and re-read it. The hilarity sure stands up over time, and I also get a kick out of seeing lori in there!
