umm...its just a friday for me, im 19 years old for god sakes. anyone who trick or treats past like...elementary school is an idiot in my opinion. maybe ill watch all the welfare moms roll up to my crib with their babies lookin to get candy. f*ck off my lawn biotch!
I like to walk through the woods of our local state park during the day-I'm sure it's just me, but it gives me a weird vibe on the 31st. Plus there's a "Dead Man's Lake" out there that has a legend about a Native American dying for love or something-it changes with each telling.
Then at night I like to watch old-school monster movies-Chaney, (Lon, not Dick ) Bela, Boris-you can't beat those 30's horror flicks!
Well, I am happy to report the significant fading of the "911 Effect". In 2001, Halloween was almost non-existant around here if I recall right. Last year not much better. This year though, we almost ran out of candy. It was a pretty impressive turnout. Good for da kids, eh?
NOW, let me just say this: if you're in the 9-13 bracket and go trick-or-treating... fine... you can make the argument you're still young enough. But do all us old-timers a favor: WEAR A FRIGGIN COSTUME and SAY "TRICK-OR-TREAT" you nimrods!
I can't tell you how many kids of this age show up at my door with no Halloween garb at all, a plastic trash bag and they just stick it in your face like "Duuude. I want some candy." Here's what I do to exact revenge: I give every kid that does that only one piece of candy, and the least desirable type in the bag. All those little kids that dress up and say the magic words? They get 3 or 4 of their choice.
Damn punks... don't even know how to trick-or-treat anymore!
Well I have a two year old and a four year old. They both thoroughly enjoyed trick or treating as The Cat in the Hat and Spiderman respectively.
We no longer live tract type housing so we had to go to a friend's house who does. She had just had some minor surgery and on top of it her husband is with the fire department which as most know has been very busy here in Cali.
So I took her children, my children and a neighbor and her daughter went with us as well. The kids covered the entire neighborhood in pretty much what amounted to a full out sprint. We hit 6 full blocks, or 24 linear blocks in less than an hour. I told them we were done since they literally already had bucketfuls of candy and by this time my 2 year old, who really was at a full sprint, had tuckered out. (He probably did the adult equivalent of running like 3 miles full out.)
We delivered the kids back. Then went to another friend's house where the children enjoyed Dora the Explorer and the adults enjoyed his new hot tub.
i ended up going to the parade in the village. it was pretty cool. tight as shit though. and its really hard to find the peeps u tryin to meat up with. there were some really elaborate costumes. there was this chick, as Cinderella, with a big ass horse and carriage. the best costume, of course, was the nude chick.

Well as it turns out I didn't go to any party tonight which sucks... long story. But yeah, I still went to this girl's house. Not too bad
Anyway, EmAn 2002 did do things like that, just not as much. And if I'm collegy as a junior in high school, just imagine me in college
