Underground where the mannequins turned off all the lights

[sovay]

Our pumpkins have been on the front steps since Saturday, but I went down tonight and lit the candles in them before evening, to let the trick-or-treaters know. There are few survivors of the bowl of mixed Twix and Kit Kats. I spent most of my Halloween proper on the couch, watching movies, with one black cat or another on my lap. I didn't get much done, but I feel it was an appropriate way to observe the holiday. The cats certainly thought so.

What beautiful pumpkins!

We carved them at the fiftieth anniversary Halloween party!

The cats certainly thought so.

And the cats know best, right?

Those are good pumpkins - I especially like that cat one.

Thank you! That is my traditional pumpkin. I've carved it (with variations) for years.

They're very good pumpkins!

We got hardly any visitors, but Child went to their friends' street and it was a grand haul.

Meanwhile, I've been making mimbledly noises all morning because I managed to get writing done before sunrise, I had good news, and Indecent is coming to DC late this month.

Excellent! Did they get a lot of whatever candy they like best?

Those are all good things!

[edit] I had been going to make a sad comment about how I need to track down the PBS recording of Indecent because I missed my chance to see it in person, but this is not so!

(I realized I couldn't tell you about their candy because we are Moms On Fire and made them go to BED at EIGHT FORTY FIVE like a PHILISTINE and they could not do the Annual Sorting.)

I love the cat without the mouth showing. A perfect black cat.
