Happy Halloween!
Oct. 31st, 2006 10:21 pmIn addition to coming all the way to our house (ninety miles) last night to help us fix my car, my parents brought us pumpkins, since we couldn't buy them here.
And, in keeping with our Halloween tradition, we made homemade ice cream. I'm not so sure why we do that but it's fun. Strawberry, this time.
Trick or treaters: 0. We bought a little bit of candy but we were pretty sure, based on our location, that we wouldn't have any. I turned the light out half an hour early because I was dying to change back into comfortable clothes, but it's not like anyone would have suddenly showed up. We're kind of on a back road, with no easy access for kids except by car. The good news is that we bought candy accordingly, and are now well-stocked on chocolate we actually like.
The pumpkin seeds are roasting in the oven right now. How Martha Stewart of us!
And, Nanomaybeo starts tomorrow. I must be out of my frickin' mind to even think about doing it again with such a half-assed plan. I can't even decide for sure if I'm going to try it! But I do have half of a plan, which is more than I had on Sunday. The problem with Nanowrimo is that it sounds like So Much Fun... until you actually start writing in November. Then it pretty much sucks. Decisions, decisions...
