Best of luck to all my WLS cyber friends.

I'm a bit frightful of all the candy surrounding me...going out for fresh fish dinner instead.

Hoping we all do well with our tricks...and our treats!

I will be a cave woman tonight at a swing dance party. Life is good. Pics later.

Happy Halloween! Boooooo-oooooooh!

I'm home alone tonight half-watching a marathon of episodes from the old Alfred Hitchcock TV series. Good stuff that holds up well these decades later.

This apartment has been home for eons upon eons ("Never give up a phenomenal deal in Manhattan" is a Constitutional amendment). The first two years here, I bought several bags of candy.* No one ever knocked. The third year I bought more,* but still no trick-or-treaters. Never bought candy again. The reason is that by then, kids in my neighborhood (and others) had stopped going door to door in favor of hitting the stores and restaurants on the avenues, where they do quite well.

* only candy that I didn't like

Had no canny in the house and did good at the party I went to. What really scares me is all the leftovers that my co workers bring in this week. Going to focus on water water and more water.

If you want to do something fun on Halloween Laurie, go to Lincoln Center. I was there for a concert in the afternoon and the plaza was teeming with kids and babies in costume. Watching them running around the old folks with canes and walkers was a bit scary but they were still cute as all getout.
