I just looked out and only one other house still has its light on, so I turned mine off and changed into jammies. I left all the Coffee Crisp and Aeros until the end so I could bogart them. I have quite a few to get through!
Book: Yes, I'd forgotten you're moonlighting as a criminal mastermind now. Got your next heist planned? Simon: No. But I'm thinking about growing a big black mustache. I'm a traditionalist.

I look more rad than Lutheranism
Tea is getting cold quickly. Half an hour to go. Might be time to start hobo trashcan fire.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger
I just had a kid some to my door (hs age) with a brown paper lunch bag to hold his candy! I could not believe it.
I'm afraid my response would be a very un-PC "Are you fucking kidding me?" Did s/he at least have a costume!?
No CANDY! And I'm an insomniac, so JUST TRY to egg my house. I will cut you.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.
No one has shown up at my house yet. I do see what looks like a few groups of kids on the next block down.

Chimenea, Tep?
ION, I am in flannel PJ's, with 7UP with real sugar, and a warm kitty on lap. Methinks (as far as I can think right now, which isn't much) that I will be early to bed tonight.
Have to finish a couple of paragraphs, get my stuff ready to go for tomorrow morning first.
Slogging...through...brain...mud...

Heh. Little neighbor kid came by dressed up as Captain Kirk. He got a double batch of candy.

That's WAY too classy for my neighborhood. A hobo trashcan on fire IS my neighborhood's version of a chimenea.

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda
I just had a couple of little kids. However, the teenagers with them were taking large handfuls of candy too.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"
Still a couple late ones coming by -- I'd guesstimate 25 kids in little bunches. Some surprisingly good makeup, and one really great homemade costume -- kid in a bathrobe with a "shower" over his head like a giant halo.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
