Oh, Halloween.

I know so many people that love you in all your costume-y, chocolate-y, pumpkin-y wonder.

They plan their costumes for months on end. They stockpile candy like sandbags in a flood. They attend loads of parties where they show off much more of themselves than anyone needs to see outside of the boudoir, or put on so much fake blood that they end up with an awkward rash.

It’s a thing. A thing they love.

It’s not so much my thing.

At my office, however, lots of people love to get into the spirit of ghosts and goblins and Glossettes, so I’ve tried a little harder to go with the flow.

For example, my costume today was going to be Facebook.

I was going to pin pictures to myself, hand out random invitations for things no one wanted to try, glue tiny Scrabble tiles to my face, and loudly announce my status every few minutes.

Then I didn’t.

Oh, well.

Happy Halloween!
