Halloween tragedy
Nov. 1st, 2011 10:43 amI experienced a tragedy last night.
Around 7:30pm, the doorbell rang, and it was a huge group of trick-or-treaters. In great costumes, to boot (Zombie Harry Potter and Hermione! A jawa! A classic top-hatted magician!) After five (ish?) years of living in this house, we've given up on kids in costumes, so of course I had no candy. I felt awful. Really really awful. I asked them to come back today and I promised to have candy for them. Oh, I hope they come back! And next year: Candy. Just in case. Worst case scenario, I buy a bag that doesn't get distributed and I put it in the office candy jar.
Never again will I suffer the heartbreak of turning away children on Halloween. I'm not lying when I say I almost cried I was so upset.
But now, here's something from![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
