Halloween. Almost here. Supposed to be freezing. Maybe I’ll stay in. Maybe I’ll sit at an upstairs window and watch little bumblebees and witches and ghosts walk up and down the streets, shouting “TRICK OR TREAT!” and avoiding the big kids with monster masks. Maybe I’ll miss the candy apples that our neighbor always gives out. Maybe I’ll skip the pillowcase filled with sweets, and maybe I’ll sneak just one Milky Way from my sister’s candy. Maybe I’ll just go to bed early, and listen to the little kids shout “BOO” to each other. Maybe I’ll stay in for Halloween. Ha. Yeah right.
