Happy Halloween

(I'm still trying to figure out why Tiki Barber was dressed as a dragon.)

In other news:
  1. We think someone tried to break in last night. Our dog in the backyard started barking sometime early this morning - before sunrise. It woke up both me & Big Daddy. But we've been having an armadillo problem in our neighborhood (I know, right?? I thought they were only in Texas) so we figured it was something like that noodling around antagonizing the dog. Then at about 7:30 someone called and said they had our dog. We couldn't figure out how that could have happened, so I looked out to see if the gate (which is kept locked) had somehow come open. It hadn't, but the 2x4 post at the corner had been wrenched out with a crowbar. Sweet.
  2. I went to the downtown Starbucks this morning to get a coffee. When I came out, this homeless guy out front says, "Hey lady, will you buy my a sandwich?" I said, "I don't have any cash, but I'll buy you a cup of coffee." (I have $$ loaded on a Starbucks card.) He kind murmured something and I kept walking to my car, which was parked on the front curb. I unlocked my car, opened my door and proceed to fall off the curb and literally land in the gutter, my coffee landing splat in the floor of the driver's side. I looked up to the sky and said, "OK! I GET IT!! I'LL HELP THE HOMELESS DUDE. YOU DON'T HAVE TO PUSH ME OFF THE CURB." I went back in, had them remake my coffee and bought the homeless guy a cup too. Sheesh.
  3. Well there's not really a three. Except that I'm going to the Grizzlies opener tonight against the Spurs (Hi, Tony! xoxo) so for the first time in years I won't be home to hand out the candy. I have a feeling the boys will just turn off all the lights and eat it themselves.

Don't you love when the messages from the universe are more like 2x4s whacking you upside the head?
