Blackbird singing in the dead of night, take these broken wings and learn to fly... All your life, you were only waiting for this moment to arise... blackbird singing in the dead of night, take these sunken eyes and learn to see all your life, you were only waiting for this moment to be free

Tonight it is Halloween. I just gave a small group of polite kids with glow sticks, pumpkin buckets and open backpacks, some assorted candy bars. Sir had said that we might not get any little mauraders but I am camped out in the front room loading cds from college onto my brand new little entertainment machine and waiting in my sparkly blue wig with the Christmas lights on in hopes that there will be more little kiddos to hand out processed candy treats to. Maybe the next batch will even have costumes.

I was disappointed that they didn’t seem to be dressed up. I was corrected, “they’re dressed as a Hmong family.” Awesome. I love this city.

We might need more candy. We’ve had two groups so far between seven and eight people a piece! My favorite so far was a little girl with vampire blood around her mouth and a cartoon pillowcase outstretched in front of her.
