Amanda, I've gotta tell ya, there are rarely any leftovers from our work potlucks. We usually have them at noon for us day shifters, but we leave everything in the room when we're done. It's right off our office, and it's all windows so everyone can see what's in there. So when the evening shift starts rolling in in the afternoon, they go in and start grazing, so by the time we leave, there usually isn't anything to take home. There are a lot of men in our office, some of them are pretty good cooks and most of them can really put away the food.
CC, better stop coloring. If you don't, by the time you have a lot of gray and try to let it go natural, you will be so shocked, you'll be forced to cover it up forever. Or that's my theory, anyway.
I really thought when hubby and I got home tonight about 8:30 p.m., the mobs would have dissipated. But no, our street still looked like a parking lot. For some reason, people have decided our neighborhood is the place to truck their kids to, so they park all up and down our street and walk their kids around. I have no idea where they come from, but many are from out of state. Even worse are the parents who like to drive along slowly while they kids go from house to house. I mean, really. We could hardly get into our driveway.
It's stuff like this that ruined Halloween. When we got to the point where we had to lay in enough grub for 300 kids, I just gave up. And so many of them are just roving groups of teenagers that can't be bothered to even try to dress up. Blech!
On the upside, hubby and I just roamed around tonight staying out of trouble, but still having fun. We went to one of our favorite Chinese places and I was so excited to have wor mein. It was absolutely delicious and I plan to have it again and again. Yummy.
Then we went out to the casino and we lost millions of dollars. So now we have to move out of our house and sell our cars and set up a tent in one of the state parks. You can reach us there.
OK, just so you know, if that really did ever happen, you probably wouldn't read about it here. And, of course, to lose millions of dollars, we'd have to have millions of dollars in the first place.
I hope the weather is decent tomorrow. I am dyin' to rake some more leaves.
