In Which Halloween will be More Depressing than Christmas
Halloween is coming. Dunno what I’m doing. I requested the day off some months ago thinking I’d be spending it putting the finishing touches on some wham-bang costume or getting ready for a party. Neither have materialized.
There’s a neat looking Halloween carnival, Nightmare on 19th Street, that is running all month long. Tickets are $20 a pop though, so forget that. Call me cheap, but I’m used to paying only a little more than that and getting a whole weekend pass to a con. What segment of population in this town is earning so much money that fun is so damned expensive?
Rocky Horror is playing every weekend at the Showplace Six, just like the old days. But that’s out. Don’t do the Rocky anymore now.
I guess I’ll fall back on my original plan: set up a grill and a cooler in the front yard, do up some burgers and dogs, try to get to know the neighbors when they come by with their kids. I doubt I’ll have more than two trick-or-treaters show up, though, so why bother?
Ah well, more candy for us.
