It's amazing how people in North America, including Canada, take halloween seriously - in a fun kinda way of course. I've been watching morning TV all morning for the sheer joy of what each TV station has thought of: newscasters and weather reporters all dressed up and made up. And let's not forget the cutest part of the whole holiday: the trick-or-treaters!
Unfortunately for us this Halloween is pretty much a non-entitity. I'll be working till 9PM, by the time which all the trick-or-treaters will have gone home. At least Dave will be over at Joy's so maybe he'll get see some goblins and ghosts... No parties either, making the news and photos from Ralph and Jim's annual and always fabulous Halloween party (the theme this year: Viva Las Vegas!) make us feel even more isolated. Oh BOO hoo hoo :-)
On a more positive note, since we're not expecting any trick-or-treaters at our appartment, we haven't bought any candy either. Usually by now half of it has been devoured any way, and considering how sparsely we tend to hand out the candy to the kids, we usually end up with a lot for ourselves. I'm sure the Tooth Fairy is letting out a long sigh of relief, as are the deities that control our waist lines... :-)
To put our readers in the mood I thought I'd share a music video that is right on the spot: though the song's good, the video was banned on BBC and MTV - and for a damn good reason too! Check it out (Robbie Williams: Rock DJ):
On a less grusome note, check this one out too; not only cute but talented, too:
Nevertheless, happy Halloween to everyone!!!
