Today's Halloween, or as some say, Samhain, and believe me, that second one is pronounced weird. But what do you expect from a bunch of witches? Holy crap. I shouldn't have said that. I might get turned into a newt! (a newt, you say?) Kim decided to visit for the weekend but it was a last minute decision. Since she thought she'd be at her house, Kim bought a bunch of candy---and of course I bought a bunch too. Together we have 16 pounds of candy!l All in nice little pieces. (see picture for details) Now we just have to decide if we should turn the outside lights on tonight and share this bounty with little ghouls and goblins or just have a sordid candy fueled frenzy of sugar consumption. *burp* Tough choice, huh? UPDATE: Only had 14 kids come by. Even giving out a handful of candy to each one we didn't finish off even the first bag. Lots and lots of candy left over.

I had all the windows open when I first turned it on 'cause I hate that stinky smell when it first comes on. And I went in and got a much needed haircut right after I picked up all that pretty candy.  I'm set until Xmas now.

It started a bit before 7pm. 23 kids --2 were definitely teens-- and almost 4 pounds of candy later I turned off the lights and closed out Halloween '08 at my house. And  I still have a bag of butterfingers leftover for me! Tomorrow morning brings half price candy at Wal-mart, a much needed haircut, and I'm finally turning on my heat.  It was 55.8f in here this morning.  Gotta love it. Helps the circulation, y'know?

Here's two wallpapers I made last year. Since the first one is for Halloween I thought I might as well put it up again, though I admit it's a little late. Halloween Wallpaper Egyptian Wallpaper
