What is your Halloween costume this year?

[irishgrl]

I have a medieval monks costume complete with hood. It looks like the ghost of Christmas past, and hopefully will hide the fact that I am too old to go trick or treating.

Enough about your daily wardrobe, Strand. Tell us what you're wearing for your costume please.

Honestly? I AM jealous I would love to go trick-or-treating, but I'm too self-consious....

So the freedom and such that it must take to do it - and the degree to which you enjoy Halloween - it's just awesome! Now - hopefully you take your son with you too though....:\

Taking your son is very cool, and I understand that it's way fun. But I've kicked teenagers off my porch for being too old, I sure as hell ain't about to give candy out to a grown woman. I don't go to work every day to make $ to buy candy for grownups - if they want it they can go & buy their own. I work to buy it for young kids, to ruin their health & rot their teeth.

it helps that Im short and that Im wearing a costume where you cant see my face I'll be big sis

dont be such a party pooper!

I'm always too cheap to buy candy to give to ANYONE

The worst year though - Halloween 1999 - a group of four teenagers came to our door after literally knocking over a group of kids- my brother in law started to close the door on them - two of them THREW themselves against the door to stop him from closing it - luckily my bro-in-law is a big guy - so he did get the door shut - we then called the cops becasue they kept banging on the door and DEMANDING candy.....

So as long as you're not doing that, Mary...more power to ya

Party pooper nothing, lady. I'm sorry but dressing up & walking around with your kids is one thing. An adult begging their neighbors for candy is quite another.
