I feel that Devil’s Night is right up there with Christmas Eve as far as pre-holidays go. Chris and I stopped by a party last night to drink pumpkin ale and catch up with friends we haven’t seen in a while, although we were home by one and asleep soon after. Either way, the party featured iPod, Beard Poppa, and Captain America costumes, so I consider it a success. Today has been all about watching the various horror movie marathons on cable and eating things that have to do with Halloween. I made those cookies the other day, and someone gave us a box of Halloween Krispy Kremes this morning for reasons I won’t go into now. I also picked up a mini-bin of conversation pumpkins at Dylan’s Candy Bar. They’re like the conversation hearts you get at Valentine’s, but they say things like “BE MY VAMPIRE” and “TRICK OR TREAT” instead of “PAGE ME” or whatever. (I admit that while I was at DCB I also picked up an oversized chocolate spider web lollipop, but I devoured it days ago.) All good stuff.

We’re taking a break from the many available werewolves at the moment, mainly so that Chris can nap and I can listen to PHC’s Halloween show. But I would be surprised if there weren’t more werewolves between here and tomorrow morning, I tell you what.
