Halloween

Who knew I’d have a Halloween this year. A lot of towns canceled Halloween because of the snow storm and downed wires. Granted I haven’t really gone trick-or-treating for myself in decades. And then surprise surprise I find myself in a pseudo-halloween. No costume - other than the 9-to-5 grind gear but I’ve been collecting a lot of candy. That’s the great thing of working in an office of 9 floors of workers. The nature of my job has me running around a lot and I end up at a lot of desks with little baskets of candy out. This week I’ve had my share of treats. I even hit the token “house” that hands out full size candy! Today, I’m tempted to make one last round. It’s like Halloween spread out across several days - and I get to eat the candy when I get it (something we were never allowed growing up - had to be checked first and then we got just one piece a night). Granted, I do suffer from the drops after the sugar-highs but that’s usually on my way home. Hey - Halloween only happens once a year right!
