Halloween

Well, Halloween has come and gone. It is sad because I can remember what I did 3 years ago, but I can not for the life of me remember the last two. Three years ago, for some unknown reason, I dressed up as an old man and went to one of my teacher friend's house to scare her. IT WORK! She even called her husband to the door because she was uneasy. Of course I can't stay in character very long and burst out in laughter. She reminds me every year that she will not be at home so don't try it again. I also went up to the bluff where Brianna was hanging out and tried to scare them, but they knew it was me....so disappointing. This year I stayed at home and handed out candy. I was so surprise at all the kids that showed up. In the past, we only get a couple of trick or treaters and I began hoarding the Snickers so we could all have a treat later. I had one of my ex-students, who now has two kids of her own, ask me for some candy. The nerve! She only weighs about 250 lbs. so I said, "No!" Later I had another mom with a bag of her own and I accidently gave her a Snicker. I was pissed! Overall it was a nice Halloween because I watched episode after episode of my favorite show, Ghost Hunters. I had seen them all before but it is still fun to watch. I really don't know what my fascination is with the paranormal, but I am intrigued. I do believe that there is some sort of paranormal activity.
My memories of Halloween are walking around with Julie and Donna. For some reason I don't remember Mother ever in the picture. I can't remember any costumes I wore. Isn't that sad. I do remember as I got older that we always wrapped someone's house with toilet paper stolen from Sirlon 66.

Well, Happy Halloween to all and now on to Thanksgiving.
