Happy Halloween
Oct. 31st, 2005 05:50 pmThis is my first official post outdoors. The joys of wireless internet, I'm sitting on my front porch ready for the costumed kids to come a running.
Sadly, this year, my heart just isn't in it. I don't mean the handing out candy, which is always fun, I mean the other stuff that I usually do. I usually enjoy dressing up for Halloween, and my costume for this year was a doozy.. if I had gotten around to making it. I mean, what holiday where you can go in public (versus the usual bedroom setting) in a cape, leather boots, and a mask and get laughs versus nervous stares isn't great.
I skipped the office costume contest because I didn't feel up to it. Not sure what is up there. Apathy? I don't know. Given the costumes that people had on, I could have won it easily this year. Maybe we're all feeling it.
I'm ready for the kids thought, laptop and DVD of horror movies ready to roll to keep me occupied between dressed kiddies.
Jeez, what a lame post...
