Glad I Didn't Have These Kinds Of Trick Or TreatersI had a fairly uneventful Halloween this year (minus my garbage can getting knocked over by the wind, spreading five bags worth of garbage all over my driveway). Only one person called me on my pickled asparagus, and I had just walked in the door from work (I worked until 6:30 that night) and hadn't a chance to get it ready (David, the asparagus will be on your doorstep by the end of the week). Otherwise, my brother in law just gave out candy to the kids until about 6:15 or so, we turned off the lights outside, and called it a night. Nothing really exciting. But I do think that if I ever were to be an obnoxious teenager on Halloween, I am going to start walking around with my wife's trombone so I can wreak some serious havoc. 4 CommentsPaul said on 11/02/05 @ 11:39 AM:Halloween isn't very popular here, like I said before, but my brother and I always go out of our way to try to make it as much fun as possible. And with success! This year we had a 200% increase of trick-or-treaters: some 80 to 100 kids must have come by, from all over town! And better yet, our photo was printed in a national newspaper! More photographs on my Flickr page. amy said on 11/03/05 @ 07:30 AM: um why did u say this Paul said on 11/03/05 @ 03:15 PM: Why, because I'm utterly bored, dear Amy! Jacko said on 11/04/05 @ 04:30 AM: at least you didn't go tricker treating on the wrong night. :P so we didn't get to much candy... just some nasty remarkes Post a comment |
