I worried about earlier groups skipping my house. Now it's fine because I am running out of candy. And the totally adorable tiny ones are almost done.
It's not like she blew me off. She just left with another guy, that's all.

[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.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Occasionally I’m callous and strange
That poor Hello Kitty who can't have candy...I'm about ready to cry for her. She should come over here, i'm handing out snack packs of pretzels shaped like airplanes. No one seems to have realized yet that they didn't get candy. One of my friends has a kid with a severe peanut allergy. She has to confiscate the entire stash and separate out what of his haul he can actually keep and it's usually very very small. I went with pretzels and plain m&ms this year so as not accidentally deprive and peanut allergic kids. Then realized that in Portland more kids are probably gluten-free than peanut-free. Oh well, they can trade the pretzels away at lunch or something.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Yeah, it's all about the tinys. The teens that come by around 9 pm aren't as much fun.

It's 7:20 here. The family I was waiting for has come and gone, I'm getting ready to leave the rest of the bowl on the front porch and go over to a coworker's house for adult beverages, pizza, and scary movies.

I find that line hilarious.

Whoa, I got schooled. Girl appeared to be a cat. I complimented her. "I'm a dog." So I replied, "Excellent dog."
Get down with your self-identifying bad self, tiny girl.

I think I tried going there a few months ago, and they closed the doors at 5:55 in my face. I've been nursing a pointless grudge since then...
Not pointless. But, then I'm quite petty.

Trudy, I’m sorry to hear you got stood up. That sucks, especially on Halloween.
I’ve had about 30 so far. That’s slow for my neighborhood, but it’s only 7:30.

We had some cute trick or treaters, a couple of whom even I found adorable, but when I went trick or treating I always felt embarrassed for the people who went "Oh, you're so cute!" that I couldn't bring myself to say it myself. Hello, old issues.

Cutest trick-or-treater so far: a three-year-old in full Monsters Inc Sulley costume. OMG.
