- It turns out that if I stay up past 2 am, get up and drink a cup of coffee between the hours of 11 am and 1 pm, I will, in fact, stay up past 3 am the following night. I don’t know if this makes me old or awesome.
- I’m going with awesome.
- Except for the part where I had to go to work on 3 hours sleep.
- Which, for the record, I can still do. Mostly well.
- This also reinforces my decision to NOT drink coffee after my initial morning cup. Which happens to be a lot of espresso.
- Specifically, I drink the equivalent of 6 – 8 shots of espresso every morning.
- OK, maybe that isn’t exactly specific.
- Have I mentioned I’m working on 3 hours of sleep?
- The older I get, the less I give a shit which exponentially increases my level of having fun.
- Next year I will come up with a contingency Halloween costume more than 4 days in advance of going out for Halloween.
- Coincidentally, I love next day free shipping.
- Contingency plans are key in life.
- I may or may not be pretending to not be home to avoid handing out candy because I don’t feel like wearing pants.
- I still love candy corn.
- HAPPY HALLOWEEN!

We never get trick or treaters, so this year no one bothered to even pretend to get candy. As we’re packing up crap & moving furniture around the front room in preparation of a total sheet rock overhaul, a random group of kids wearing little to no costumes walks up. The porch light is not on, the door is open from moving things to the storage building.
Eric’s mom stares at them for a second & then goes right back to packing away breakables. They stand there for an extra moment before walking off. She used “the porch light wasn’t on so I obviously have nothing for you” logic.
