Aw man, Halloween was a BUST for me! The trick or treaters didn't come until around 6:30, and they stopped around 7:30! It didn't even start raining until 10! When I was a kid, we started right after school and didn't stop until 9! We ruled the streets that night. Guess times have changed. I gave out Cheetos, Doritos, and granola bars. I let the kids choose which one they wanted. Know what? To my surprise, the granola bars were the most popular, especially with little kids! Do kids even eat candy anymore? The most popular costume for boys seemed to be pirates. Why is that? There were also a lot of 3 foot ninjas boys, which I could understand, but pirates? For girls it was Tinkerbell. Saw no less than three life size Tinks at the door. Second prize for most adorable costume goes to a little tyke in a pirate costume that looked really good and he knocked on my door with his little hook hand. First prize goes to another tee tiny boy dressed as a NASCAR driver (think of where I live, folks). It looked just like one of their racing jumpsuits, and his trick or treat bag was even shaped like a little racing car! So cute! I felt sorry for a lot of kids because they didn't come in costume and it makes me think that their parents couldn't afford to get them one. So sad. But one kid was creative and wrote tombstone words (RIP and all that) on a grey T-shirt. He was a tombstone! Everyone liked my costume. I was a piece of cheese. Green Bay cheese hat and bright yellow T-shirt. All the preteen kids said I was the coolest person in the world. That's the first time that's happened! One adult thought I was SpongeBob. Idiot. At least I got to watch a lot of ghost shows and X-Files today. Best part of Halloween is really the TV lineup. In Sunday's FoxTrot comic strip, one of the kids was dressed as Mega Man X! So how was everyone's Halloween?
