This article on CNN.com is the best thing ever.
So it's Halloween. I love Halloween. It's, like, my favorite holiday in the world. I like the idea of Christmas and its related trappings, and I love getting presents for people, but I can only really appreciate it when I seperate everything I like about it from the childhood angst I have surrounding it. Well, more teen angst - my parents didn't get to the "We don't care what you want, we'll get you whatever makes us feel like we're good parents" stage until my teen years. Halloween is just great and wonderful. The down side is that I forgot to ask for the night off of work, so I have to close tonight, naturally. Leaving it up to chance that I should be able to have an early shift today was apparently foolish. I suppose it only matters so much, because our apartment doesn't actually get trick-or-treaters. Nobody in the building has children, and no children from the neighborhood nearby want to come all the way over here and, in my case, up three floors for candy that's probably not even as good as the candy in the way-too-nice houses in their own neighborhood. So I wouldn't get to give out candy anyway, but I won't get to have Halloween fun with Graham. I'm dressing up a little for work, though. I was thinking I wanted to do a Zaranna costume this year, but at work that'd probably get a little unwieldy, and nobody would know who I was anyway. I kinda wanted to get a Cobra shirt to wear as part of it, so I wouldn't just look like a generic pink-haired punk, but Hot Topic didn't have any. Bleh. So I got some cat ears and a new tail to wear with my normal clothes at work. At least I'll be dressed up.
