Discussion item: do you dress up for Halloween? Either at work or going out (to the bar or trick-or-treating).

A bunch of people at work are dressing up tomorrow for Halloween. I guess it’s a tradition. I’m not sure if I’m gonna dress up or not. I don’t have a costume. I’ve never really bought a costume. In the past when I’ve gone out on Halloween, I’ve used stuff I’ve had around the house to create a costume … maybe buying accessories to go along with it. If I do dress up tomorrow, I’ll probably just wear my cowboy hat and boots and maybe hang my toy handcuffs (from a costume a couple years ago) on a belt loop of my jeans. I know … I’m lame ( ) … but that’s me …

I have discovered a new way to get home from work. Now that Main Ave. construction is done, I thought I’d give it a try to see if it was any quicker or at least piss me off less … LOL. I usually take University south (from 2nd St. N) to 13th Ave. S and then 13th over to 33rd St and then take some back roads home. That way got so damn plugged up at times. And people don’t know how to drive!!!

Today, I took Main Ave over to 25th St south to 5th Ave S and then some back roads home. I’m not sure if it was quicker (if it was, it was only by a few minutes), but it was a LOT less of a headache. No backing up … no bitching at other drivers (or at least not as much … LOL) … no road rage. Woohoo!!! I’ll keep taking that route ’til it turns into a headache. Hopefully that won’t happen.
