We had at least 200 kids show up at our door last night. It was phenomenal.
We live in a suburb, beyond which is rural countryside. All the families come in from the surrounding rural areas and invade our neighborhood.
I love it!
Our kids are teenagers now, and they are smarmy and troublesome and don't like to be seen in public with their parents.
When all these unbelievably adorable little ones showed up at our door, I was overwhelmed with sadness, missing my kids at that age.
I also found out just how old I am. I started trying to guess what each of the kids' costumes was, and I got a lot of them wrong.
"Are you a ninja turtle?"
[in an outraged voice] "NO! I'm from Halo!!"
I don't know what that is.
After several mistakes, I stopped guessing, unless it was very obvious. Princess, witch, zombie...
Kids are dressing up as video game characters now, and I have not played a video game in over 15 years.
I play some apps on my phone every once in a great while, but have not touched a Playstation or whatever in forever.
My son is trying to get me to play PUBG. That game is taking over the world.
Anyway. How was your Halloween?
