life on a Halloween-free block

Last year I got no trick-or-treeters, which made me sad. This year I was determined to remedy that, so I put up a sign on my verge saying, "The Devil has candy at [Devil Girl house number]." But alas, still no trick-or-treeters. It's a good thing I only bought a small bag of Reese's, because I've snarfed them all in the last twenty-four hours.

There are tons of young couples on my block, but not many children, especially of the ambulatory variety. Get busy, you nerds. I've done my bit.

Oh: to my considerable surprise, my son wore a costume to work. I thought he wasn't into it. I'm not a complete failure as a parent.
