• Hm... do they come from a place of light?
• Oh shut up. Sorry. I'm on day ten of not smoking. I figure I can be cranky and get away with it all month long, so watch it.
• I got some Tootsie Pops left over and a bunch of Mary Jane Peanut Butter Taffies. You can have the suckers, but the taffies is mine.
• Miniature Hersey bars... I would tell ye, take 'em all, but ye can't take the dark chocolate ones, alas, for Some in this household have Disappeared 'em, every one, and today lie groaning, too spent from their semi-sweet exertions to wipe their dark-smeared, perjured lips.
• oh gimme gimme! We have a give-annoyingly-singing-kids-at-the-door-candy party at 11-11. Sint-Maarten, Sint-Maarten de koeien hebben staarten... de meisjes hebben rokjes aan daar komt Sint-Martinus aan
• congrats on the stopping smoking, idest. be as cranky as you damn well please.
• bees, just like my house. All the dark chocolate gets snarfled first. We have tons of candy left over, as I was out and Mister shiny forgot to turn on the porchlight until late. Baby Ruth, Mr. Goodbar, M&Ms (peanut and plain), 100 Grand. I do believe he ate the entire bag of Pay Day bars all by hisself.
• Careful, squidboy, I just might select you as my personal crank-o-boy. Oh yeah, and thanks.
• idest, congrats and good luck.
• I figure I can be cranky and get away with it all month long, so watch it. Sure...as long as you post an apology thread, all will be cool.
• Happy Day After Halloween everyone! Or, as I call it, Go to Gym and Skip Lunch and Swear to Throw Away Those Bars of Candy That are Audibly Calling to Me In Their Irresistable Sirens' Song Day. Jernie: If it weren't for the fact that shipping in time for Sint Maarten's day would end up costing a fortune, I'd trade you this big lovely American assortment of "fun size" (marketing-speak for tiny) Butterfingers for katjesdrop. ;)
• We didn't get a single kid. Kinda depressing actually.
• Sure...as long as you post an apology thread, all will be cool. You're on my list, rocket. :-)
• We had a great time until the rain started and the kids quit coming to our haunted house, damn the rain. Yet we still had a great time. I have a 3 gallon bucket of candy left over.
• I just might select you as my personal crank-o-boy. I don't want to go steady idest, but good luck on your nic-o-fits.
• Like you have a choice. Steady? Who said anything about steady? I'm all about unsteady. Bwahahahahahaha! I feel odd. Very, very odd. *gets ready to compose apoology thread*
• Hang in there, idest. Once the clean air hits your lungs and brain for long enough, you'll realize it's worth it.
• i brought my leftover mini m&ms and pop rocks to work. people were happy. and it's out of my house. only group of kids that came to my door was a group of giggling high schoolers. probably good that i wore my regular clothes rather than the costume i'd been considering - "naked man with gun" might not have gone over well. darn now i wanna go down to the lab and see if there are any m&ms left...
• DON'T YOU PEOPLE REALIZE THAT CANDY IS THE TOOL OF SATAN!???!!
• No, wait, I'm ok. Yea, yea. Sure, I'm going to be ok. I spent all day within reach of the grandkid's goody bags. If I wasn't an adult-onset diabetic, I am now. PLEASE! Someone give me a cigarette!
