One down, one to go

OK. I survived this night of overtime. Now just one more to go...and then two days off...and then four (or five) more days of work.

Halloween is next Saturday! Whatever happens, I need to make sure I am not tapped for overtime then. I love Halloween. In my neighborhood, where most houses have big front porches, we've streamlined the process immensely: we just sit on our porches and hand out candy to kids as they come up the steps. I need to list all the candy I've bought in advance of the big day.

And the weekend after that is The Sideshow Gathering! This will be my third year there. It's a great time, especially for someone like me who has led a sideshow-deprived life!
