Have fun giving candy out to the tricker treaters, or if you are going trick or treating, have fun!! People shouldn't start coming around for about 1.5-2 more hours in Southern California because it's only like 4:20!

My daughter is a "vixen" and prop assistant in the play Dracula at the Rialto Community Playhouse. They are having a special show tonight, so she's not here. My youngest is dressed as a 1940's Rosie the Riveter and is taking her friend's younger sister around for candy. Leaves me at home with the significant other to hand stuff out and vegge in front of the TV watching Nightmare Before Christmas. Eek!

Same in Temecula but the tickets are so expensive just because it's in 3-D but I bet it's worth it. I've seen the original and it's a Halloween classic.

But anywayz....I didn't go tirck-or-treating but I hope nobody comes knocking at like 11 or so. I'll be asleep soon so that doorbell is going to get really annoying.

I took my brother and like all the houses are completely dark. So I was like there's no point in where I live...I was going to go to Harvest but it would've been for an hour by the time I brought it up so yea...

In conclusion, haha, my Halloween was filled w/ Halo and hw.
