All Hallows Eve
Friday, October 31st, 2008Happy Halloween! I hope you’re all having a wonderful day so far.
Trick or treating in our area begins in a little more than an hour, and I’ll be headed over to my Grandma’s to help pass out candy at her house. It’s become a tradition the last several years for my mom and I to go over there and answer the door for trick or treaters. We eat dinner, and play card games, and it’s just generally a good time. I’m looking forward to seeing Killian dressed up as a monkey too– his parents are supposed to be bringing him by at some point tonight. I’ll try and get pictures to share, but I left my camera at home and I’m not currently too thrilled with the idea of going all the way home to get it. Grandma lives a couple of blocks from where I work, and I just can’t bring myself to drive all the way home, fighting Friday afternoon traffic, just to turn around and come all the way back to where I came from. Granted, it would give me a chance to change out of my work uniform, but I just don’t think I care that much.
Besides, I’ve been having fun with all the “regulars” through the lobby today… when they’re getting ready to walk away, I’ve asked them if they liked my costume. When they look at me funny, I just add that I’m a security guard today and while it’s a bit of a stretch for me, I think I’m pulling it off pretty well. hehe So there you have it… my Halloween costume this year is a security guard. How original!
