All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

I never get trick-or-treaters inside my building but I saw several when I was walking to get my take-out dinner. One woman was giving candy to anyone walking by so I ended up with some Whoppers. Nice! Now I'm watching baseball with a cat curled up on my lap.

My left ear is still clicking and thumping nearly a full week since my last flight. So annoying.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

At one point, handing 4 houses worth of candy from one porch out of laziness.

Our friends who live 4 houses down came up and we all sat in our driveway to hand out candy. We had to explain to several parents that we were giving out candy for 2 houses, because the parents thought the kids were scamming candy.

One of our friends was dressed in a full Batman outfit, and one kid caught sight of him and yelled "OH MY GOD MOM IT'S BATMAN!!!!" Best reaction ever.

t edit And I *may* have freaked out one kid somewhat when I realized what his outfit was and said "OH MY GOD YOU'RE ROCKET RACOON!!! I loved that movie!!!" Although as he walked away, I heard him say "She knew who I was!"

We have had about 9 trick or treaters. The porch light is still on, but I'd be surprised if any more appear.

In a sign that one of my kids is only Buffista adjacent, when I said I wanted to watch the Buffy Halloween episodes, the response I got was "Turn it back, turn it back. It's a bear". Wrong holiday and misquoted. I have failed.

Oh, Suzi. ::shakes head::

Ben and his girlfriend are dressed as Jackie and Hyde from That 70s Show. Sara was, I quote, "casual Spiderman" in a Spiderman t-shirt and knee socks. I'm in pajamas and watching American Horror Story on my laptop and the game on the TV. With candy!

I was looking through pictures from a local "trunk or treat" and there was a homemade Groot [link] While I'm at it, there's incrediably cute [link] and a business for Steph [link]

Amy...you aren't allowed to watch the game live. You know this.

Shhh. I have the sound off. That counts, right?
