Between Jon the Caterer Landlord, The Movie Thief, and me, we passed out (NO LIE) 50 bags of candy tonight. We finally had to shut the lights. There must have been 400-500 trick-or-treaters. Woah, I'm tired.

It was nice to sit outside with Jon, The Movie Thief, and Neighbor Paul to chat about costumes and such. Everyone seems happy that we are buying a house, which is nice. And Jon the Caterer Landlord gave me some of his homemade cream of mushroom soup, which was yom yom.

I only ate three pieces of candy. I am so proud of myself. I am such a good doo-bee. I didn't have much of an appetite tonight, though.

Gosh, I'm wiped. All of that trick-or-treating is hard work!

We went to pick up the car tonight. It's an awfully smooth ride compared to the Focus. When I crossed over to Blue Hill Ave from 138 and got into Mattapan, it hit me how BIG this car is. Considering I went from a Sentra to a Focus to this, it seems HUGE in 'hood traffic. I guess I'll have to get used to it. (Parking, too.) It's so discombobulating to not intrinsically know the dimensions of the car. As someone who spends a LOT of time in the car and needs to squeeze in all over the place, yeah, that's concerning.

But it cruised over the crappy Codman Square roads like nothing. And when we get out to the sticks? Yeah!

Also, in the 2 minutes between when I parked the car on the street, emptied out the glove compartment, and stepped out of the car, a bird pooped on it. A BIRD POOPED ON MY NEW CAR IN 2 MINUTES!! THERE IS POOP ON MY NEW CAR! POOP!

In other news, the biggest slug in the whole universe was sliding across our front walk when I got home. It was easily 4 inches long. Ewwwww.

I'm so excited that tomorrow is Friday. I'm done by 1:30 and it's a 3-day weekend. YAY!

Someone in the neighborhood, probably Drunk Dude, is blasting the radio really loudly and it is pouring through my windows. For the last hour or so, I've wanted to yell, "SHUT UP!" out the window. But now "Don't Fear the Reaper" is on and I just want to bust out with, "MORE COWBELL!!!"
