I swear I remember this.
So, I have no idea if there are trick or treating hours or how many kids to expect. I have a fair amount of candy though.
I was listening to NRP where some homes pay $300 (!!) for candy for Halloween. WTF?

Parents don't seem to understand that phone service is sketchy and why am I not answering.
ION, got out of work early, so I thought I'd try to get gas for my nearly empty car. Three hours and 9 detours, and two hitched rides later, I walked up my driveway. Neighbor says they'll take me back to my car with a gas can. Three hours later, after being made to endure their (horrible) foster kids and their abusive conversations at said kids (now I see why they're horrible) neighbor starts in about how he hopes my car wasn't towed or ticketed. Well, if we'd gone when you said we were, that wouldn't have been a worry, and no, nothing looks familiar because it's DARK now. I know that sounds ungrateful, but I swear he's deliberately malicious and knows I'm in no position to protest.

The town where my parents live still has about 50% without power. My parents have electricity, but my friend who lives down the block from them doesn't. Most streets are still blocked, and a whole ton of houses were damaged by trees falling on them.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Good grief, Juliebird. Sorry you were forced to rely on help from awful people. I hope you have your car now and are away from him.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Got a good number of trick-or-treaters here. Still have some candy left. (Of course, the candy I have the most left of, despite trying very hard to give it away, is one I do not like at all.)

Actually got rid of all my candy save some for MSBELLE and my neighbor's kids. All in 45 minutes. They travelled in large groups. And they remembered me from last year!

I am the fly who dreams of the spider
Got my car, but still practically running on fumes. Neighbor drove to PA to get gas for where he works.
So my dilemma is: say fuck it, I'm not going into work until the gas situation resolves a bit and I can get a full tank, which could be a week from now and I'm back to relying on nosy heckling neighbor, or crash at boss's house, abandoning cats or sticking them in her basement, but having to hang with My BOSS 24/7 until gas sitch is resolved. Heated house, laundry, no personal space or free kitties or meat. God, I just want my own space. Being forced to socialize Roth neighbor, wife, and kids was exhausting. Bitch bitch, whine whine, I'm fortunate that this is my problem.
Also, I can see my breath.
