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

I bought $50+ of candy tonight. It *might* last until I'm the one done.

I have 20 pounds of candy. I don't think it's going to be enough. But it might last until I, too, am the one done.

Fruited plane is good.

If you live in temp extremes, I love having nitrogen in my tires. If one of those is low, it's low. No silliness in trying to decide if it just got colder and the tires aren't up to temp yet.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I feel like strategically removing a Kit-Kat bar (or several) is not "digging in," really.

Anyway, they do a thing where the employee's kids go cubicle-to-cubicle trick-or-treating in the afternoon, so my candy is at the office.

Aw, man! When I worked at a youth center, the kids would come around trick-or-treating, and it was fucking adorable.

what do you do for medical board?

Just put like aspirins and band-aids and whatnot on a piece of lumber!

Aww, I like that idea. I could very much go for that.

I always make sure to get stuff I don't like. Which is pretty easy.

I can look at it as a "quality check." Also, unlike chips or other salty snacks, I can stop after one piece of candy.

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

Anne should eat a Kit Kat. That is a fact.

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

For Halloween, I'm going to be going to a thing in a neighboring town where the kids come to a park for trick-or-treating. That town has no sidewalks and very few streetlights, so there usually aren't too many kids doing real trick-or-treating, so the town decided to try it this way this year. A group I'm part of volunteered to hand out candy.

A quality check would be prudent. It's true.

Trunk and Treats are pretty popular here. We will probably get a few trick or treaters on Halloween itself. I will go get some candy tomorrow and I also have Halloween pencils, because I am That lame house thats does that.

I have no candy in the house. No trick or treaters, so no temptation. Darn it.

Tonight I made some chain mail earrings. My first chain mail project and I'm pleased with the results. Tomorrow I'm going to attempt a bracelet with a similar weave.
