I am the Halloween Grinch.

What is a pull tab?

Halloween is a weird day for me. My dad died six years ago on Halloween, my grandma died 21 years ago on Halloween. I spend the day making the last meal I ever made for my dad (and subsequently, the last meal he ever ate) and just kind of letting that ritual guide my thoughts. It's usually pretty cathartic. N and I will just hang out at his house tonight and eat and watch TV. Some years I do stuff for Halloween, but I'm not feeling it this year.

Where do you get your pull-tabs?

I've only ever seen them when I've played Bingo.

After we TOT with DS at like 4 houses, we will probably just be lane & watch TV after he goes to bed.

The private club bar I go to has them. The bar gets a cut of the money, in fact, without the ticket machine, the bar would go under. Luckily, we have a lot of dumb gamblers who will drop $400 chasing a $250 max payout.

Most of the bars in other divisions of the club around the state have machines too. I haven't seen one at a regular bar.

Dh and I are going to keep the lights off and drink beer and watch stuff on the DVR. One of the joys of not having children

I have a 4 year old who is excitedly waiting to dress up like a Ninja Turtle and go trick or treating....I sort of have to drag my butt around the neighborhood.

My grandfather died on Halloween night in 2001, I have a weird feeling of Halloween now.  I'll never forget waking up with a raging hang-over on Nov. 1st to a call that he passed.  It's a bittersweet memory of partying my ass off while he took his last breath.  I really miss him.

I am nesting watching for TOTers. DH is distracting the dogs.

loonylunalovegood what is this learn to be a jedi game? Is it fun? We have a Kinect but not many games so looking for some good ones for when my YSS comes for TG.

I'm just catching up on my DVR and cuddling with my pup with the outdoor lights off and curtains closed. If H was home, we may have handed out candy, but I cannot answer the door and wrangle my dog all by myself.

Dinner with friends.

I hate Halloween. I'll take the bean ToTing like a good mom, leave a bowl of candy on the porch for the few kids we get, and then she's going to bed on time and I'm hunkering down with my selections from her candy and my TiVo.

I'm eating pizza, dealing with a fussy baby, and packing. My H is leaving for Hong Kong tomorrow and Be and I are leaving Saturday. Packing for babies is hard.
