I would have to say Halloween is my second favorite holiday after Thanksgiving.

Thanksgiving is #1 in my holiday world because of the food, being with family and having a minimum of a 4 day weekend. I may take the Wednesday off before Thanksgiving to be a bum and play video games. I could care less about shopping the day after. Xmas is way too overcommercialized.

Halloween is a holiday for your friends. Thanksgiving is all about family.

Halloween is all about candy. Thanksgiving is all about turkey and mashed potatoes and the pie…*drool*….and the sleepiness that follows.

Halloween is all about getting dressed up in costume and making an ass out of yourself. Thanksgiving is drinking too much wine and playing drunken Pictionary Charades (you act out the card instead of draw) with your brothers and sisters and nearly pissing your pants in laughter.

Halloween is all about being a kid again. Thanksgiving is about embracing the adult in you. There’s no greater accomplishment in an adult’s life than a perfectly cooked turkey.

But my love for Thanksgiving can wait for another post.

Today, I’m dressed up as the Devil. I’ve had co-workers tell me that my choice was very appropriate for me. I’m not sure what that’s supposed to mean. I hope it’s a compliment.

I bought a bunch of sale candy at Target, put a bunch out for my co-workers and hoarded the good stuff for myself. I’m such a naughty Devil.

As far as your trick-or-treating bag goes, what is the Ultimate Treat that you could get in your bag this year? My Ultimate Treat would be the Mounds Bar. Oh yeah.
