B O O !


Just a warning, be careful out there this weekend. You never know who will show up at your door. It could be a vampire... or worse, a politician begging for votes, or an environmentalist begging for money for the trees & ozone, or a pair of missionaries of some sort begging for your soul.

We actually enjoy these visits. It's quite fun to listen to the beggar's spiel with all the huffing, puffing and wheezing, after walking up our 30 steps, then say "no thanks, we gave at the office" "come again, when you're in shape"

Of course, those same 30 steps also dissuade the trick or treaters from ringing our bell. And we LUV the little monsters. I imagine the neighbor kid will make it, as she was able to come up to sell that wrapping paper. But we normally end up eating all our Halloween candy. Darn. And, yes, I have been taste testing the Butterfingers for the last couple weeks. Don't want to be giving out any bad product.

Hey, speaking of a fun weekend, tomorrow we're going to go watch a soccer game of 7 yr olds. At 9:15am, at the far end of town, and it will be raining. I'm pretty sure I'd rather go for a 15 mile run.

Hey, speaking of rain, fun and running. We're racing the Dawg Dash on Sunday. It's a 10K. On campus at the U W. It's a challenging course with quite a bit of uphill, but also the return downhill at the end. Stay tuned, as you know results will be posted here.

Well, I should go join Gina for the annual viewing of "The Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown". Can you hear CB's theme song now?

That's next. How to get music files on this Blah-g?
"I vant tunes on da blog"
OK, say good night, Count Dracula.
Who you calling a Blockhead?

So couldn't you sit out at te top of the wall and hand candy down with a fishing pole?
Wow! First in my family to blog. Kris will be impressed. But then he is doing Nanowrimo again this year, so he's probably too busy writing his novel to blog.
By the way I've bookmarked your blog on my Blackberry- wouldn't want to miss it when I'm out of town or anything.
