We have a costume parade and prizes, usually held on 10/30 to accommodate the parents of young children who invariably come in late on Halloween morning after the costume parades at their kids’schools. I will be one of them for the first time this year, as The Princess will be wearing her mermaid costume to school and will need help changing into her uniform afterward. I may or may not wear my costume to the office (I am dressing goth this year, to make up for all the years I wanted to be a goth but didn’t think I could pull it off), and I am definitely bringing treats. Yes, even for that one lady who hasn’t celebrated Halloween since she was “born again”. Candy doesn’t discriminate. 🙂

Maybe you should dress up as pink-cheeked, bright-eyed folks who have their whole beautiful sunny lives ahead of them. Scary stuff.

OK, this was funny.
