I feel all holiday-spirited

sarahmichelefWe have no exciting Halloween plans... ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
master_mr tells me that TRex's flying monkey costume was to be overnighted to us today. Assuming it arrives early enough in the day on Monday, I'm going to take her to campus to see her admirers in M's department, who will ooh and aah over her as they always do. We bought candy, and tonight I carved us a very happy-looking pumpkin (the pumpkins speak to me... this one was a maniacally happy gourd) and roasted up the seeds with some tasty Old Bay seasoning.
I hope we get some trick-or-treaters; we never did in Amherst, and eventually we gave up on even buying candy. Here, I hope that they'll come to the back door, since our front porch light doesn't work. Mr. Happy Pumpkin will be out on the back porch (or maybe the driveway, but I fear that if he's out there, he'll end up smashed, whereas he'll be a bit safer in the screen porch window) to act as a beacon. Otherwise, we'll be eating tootsie-roll mix for a long, long time.
I *heart* Halloween. I can't wait 'til next year when TRex is old enough to pick out her own costume and actually go trick-or-treating.
And now I'm off to bed.
