For the past few years,
fewer and fewer kids have been showing up on our door step looking for candy.
That doesn't stop Bunny from being opimistic and overbuying candy just in case scores of kids come by and get candy,
least we get our house redecorated with eggs and toilet paper.
Me,
I've always been surprised when any kids show up these days on Hallowe'en.
So it was that Bunny bought way more candy than I felt we needed.
We ended up with three kids showing up.
In one group.
At around 7:30 pm.
At least we avoided carving a pumpkin this year,
opting instead for my ceramic, pre-carved pumpkin.
The good news?
Bunny bought candy we like.
The bad news?
Bunny bought candy we like.
It won't go to waste,
but it will go to our waist.
You have my permission to link freely to any entry here. Go
ahead, I won't bite. I promise.
The dates are the permanent links to that day's entries (or
entry, if there is only one entry). The titles are the permanent
links to that entry only. The format for the links are
simple: Start with the base link for this site: https://boston.conman.org/, then add the date you are
interested in, say 2000/08/01,
so that would make the final URL:
https://boston.conman.org/2000/08/01
You can also specify the entire month by leaving off the day
portion. You can even select an arbitrary portion of time.
You may also note subtle shading of the links and that's
intentional: the “closer” the link is (relative to the
page) the “brighter” it appears. It's an experiment in
using color shading to denote the distance a link is from here. If
you don't notice it, don't worry; it's not all that
important.
