'Shindig'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
I thought I was closing at work so I didn't candy. My front proch light is burned out anyway, but I think by the time I got home most of the trick or treating was done because I didn't see or here anyone.
It was really really slow today and I think being a Halloween Friday there's more stuff going on and instead of going to buy things they are either doing last minute shopping or getting ready for parties.
I've gotten maybe 15 kids and the vat o' candy is almost empty.
The girl who took my money at the Wendy's drive-through said she was there until 2am and had three kids. She seemed unhappy about it. I'm thinking about taking the remaining candy over there and handing it to her through the window for her kids.
Just had my first Trick or Treaters, a polite group of tween boys. One football player, one in a tux, and one zombie. All of them tried not to stare at my fangs.
That's cool of you, Zen.
That would be so sweet, Zen!
Maybe stay inside, Chicago? Yikes!
I got six ToTers. Ah well.
That's a great idea, Zen!
I caught up with my friend and had dinner. We came back to watch Only Lovers Left Alive, but the disc wouldn't play. So now the Burton Sleepy Hollow is on. Such a pretty phase for Depp.
Maybe stay inside, Chicago? Yikes!
Uh, yeah. I think that's wise. On my way home, I was pretty sure I was going to achieve liftoff like a scene out of Mary Poppins.
That'd be really cool, Zen.
Had a lot of older teens in no costume, but I swear, they once again proved to be the sweetest things. 3 of the 5 compliment on my prom dress came from 2 girls and one boy! One looked disappointed when I told her my mom made it. Score for 1993 quasi Goth! And they all asked about what I was (either Queen Fixit or "your future as a homeowner!")
Other compliments were from little girls in sparkly costumes. One looked me up and down, big eyed "Can I touch it?" "So soft!" Her very young dad looked a bit embarrassed, but I assured him it was fine.
We got about 14 trick or treaters...which is 14 more than we have had in the last 6 Halloweens.
K-Bug is driving me to the airport at o'dark thirty, so once 8pm rolled around, we took the sign off our door (we have no control over the porch light) and are calling it good. CJ handled the door, so I didn't see too many costumes - but between posted pictures of friends kids and the couple of times I answered the door - so much cute.
Our first at the new house. I got high on my own supply and am down to seven pieces at 7:15! Make that four pieces!
