Where'd they get CAT scan from?... I mean, did they test it on cats? Or does the machine sort of look like a cat?

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

I smiled and said "I look like this every day."

Ahahaha I love you.

Because books.

He was actually Optimus Prime, Cass. Geek parents! I was ashamed I didn't know who he was. Or who he was dressed up as, I should say.

I smiled and said "I look like this every day."

When I told Sara that you dress that way every day, she was amazed and impressed. I could see the wheels spinning in her head, too, I have to say.

Crap. I took a double dose of the fake!sudafed instead of a single of the real. No wonder it isn't working. Feh.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

A man and woman came to my door with a baby in a stroller who was no more than a year old. The baby was dressed as Superman. I tried to hand the baby a piece of candy, and the father said no, that I should let the baby take it from the bowl. I tried holding the bowl out to the baby, but he seemed to have no interest in it, so I just gave him the candy, and the father looked very disappointed.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

We have had two people. I blame us being elsewhere, trick or treating, earlier.

As we are ALWAYS starting later, I encourage kids to FOR GOD'S SAKE, TAKE AS MUCH AS YOU WANT!

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

We don't get T or T'ers here. I called a friend who lives in the complex and let him know that his daughter was welcome to knock on our door. I have a treat for her. But even that didn't bring us a T or T'er.

CJ is out with some friends (all girls, I believe). They had planned on "reverse T or T'ing". Knocking on doors and handing out candy. I didn't see him before he left the house, but I'm willing to bet he dressed as a ninja.

[delurking for real after delurking in the Delurking thread]

Having lived in my neighborhood for 13 years now, I've decided it's pointless to buy candy and sit around waiting for the 7 or 8 kids who might show up and might be in costume. So tonight I avoided trick-or-treaters by going to a mall for the evening. And encountered -- trick-or-treaters. Which was really fun, because I got to see tons of adorable children in adorable costumes but didn't have to sit around the house waiting all night. It was win-win.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

We're back from tricks or treats. Mildly tiresome during the prep stage as it usually is with Matilda. (Will never forget the year she rejected JZ's handmade costume as we were ready to go out the door.) But once we got out there we did okay and she enjoyed the spectacle of Belvedere Street.

Matilda - the Agile Rainbow Cat.

Up close, blurry and somewhat uncanny.
