number of kids that showed up at my house : 0 .
number of "chubby" pop cans that i am stuck with : 24 .
i decided to go with pop because it's better to be stuck with 7 up and pepsi than it is to be stuck with a bajillion candy bars. next year i won't bother at all, but damn.

Apparently my folks had the same thing happen to them except they chose candy. I think my mum had the feeling it would happen so she could eat the remaining pieces. She's such a dork but I love her to death. =P

I remember when I was younger (wow...that makes me sound old) this was a HUGE holiday. We'd spend weeks getting our costumes together, spend hours outside (even if it was pouring rain, a foot of snow like the year before last, or hot as hell) making sure we hit every last house (and some even twice after we swapped costumes). Where's all the fun and determination now?

you're not that old, darling. i remember the same thing. costumes were planned well in advance. my mum used to make mine (when i was 3 she made me into a fun-fur bunny) and it didn't matter how damn cold it was we were out in the neighborhood ringing doorbells. i guess now kids are going to malls for trick or treating, which i think is super lame. it was SO nice out last night y'know?
