OK, so it's only pea-sized, but we haven't had any kind of rain for a long time.

1. No hail, though, but we got rain.
And it just HAD to frickin' rain on the day I've got three classes...

11. Did you read the bio?
Apparently lives with husband and two daughters in Louisiana along with one daughter's child. Daughter got preggers in high school and they decided to help her raise the child.

Personally, I think they should take that whacko to the dentist. I know, I'm mean.

13. Yeah, those "Christian values" sure did rub off on the kid...
:eyes:

Gee, I wonder if there was any rebellion involved. She tries to pass herself off as a Christian, but is one of the more intolerant people on the earth.

37. I'm taking this Halloween off.
I did all my going out and driving over the weekend up in Fort Worth...*sigh* Driver's fatigue!

So, I'll just be passing out the candy this evening, watching some football since I missed out yesterday...

Anywhere you're headed this evening?

38. I'm having dinner with my folks in the San Antonio area.
I'm a bad neighbor, I'm not handing out candy. As stated above, I'm between professional engagements presently. The kids should give me candy. ;)

39. I hope you have a very nice evening!

I've been there myself - after tuition, books, art supplies, food & rent...well, candy isn't really an option.

After having been through the "whaddya mean ya ain't got candy, lady?" scenario, it just seemed easier to go out... *laugh*

40. Dinner with the parental units is always a good thing.
Edited on Mon Oct-31-05 04:39 PM by GOPisEvil
They have candy for their trick or treaters. I'll try to sneak some off with me. ;)

Going out or just shutting yourself in is often the best way to deal with Halloween.
