* Buying treats at the local health food store and offering one to a kid dressed as Spiderman as we were walking home. (He recoiled - don't you know you're not supposed to take candy from strangers?)
* Making out with Astrid in her tiny yellow shorts and tight black tights on the couch, waiting for guests to arrive.

* Eating chocolate and drinking whiskey at the same time.
* Seeing Dave dressed as his own Facebook page.
* Talking to Calisto about the racist, classist, and basically totally fucked up doctrine of a certain Russian-turned-Texan physics professor...
* ...And then getting a text message from Spider in Seattle who was, at that moment, witnessing what she described as a "straight man dressed as a leather daddy," performing the song All my Exes Live in Texas at a karaoke bar.
Happy Halloween, y'all!
