halloween notables

thing one insisted on being a ghost. last month. me, being cheap, didn't look for a ghost costume. because we already have 3,482 costumes downstairs. just waiting to be worn. so i held off. and accidentally found one saturday. for five bucks. and bought it. thing two was going to be a kitty. was. trick or treating started at six last night. fifteen minutes before we were to set out for the night both decided they didn't want to be a ghost. or a kitty. thing one now wanted to be thomas. and thing two now wanted to be a lion. again. thank god for the downstairs costume store.

thing one [after walking for a few houses]: [gasp] 'i've flattened my buffers!'

thing two [after thanking someone for the candy]: [sternly] 'will! did you say thank you?!'

thing one [at the same house]: [gasp] 'a lollipop?! awwww! just what i always wanted!'

thing two [after thanking another person for the candy to the person that handed her the candy]: 'but i don't like this kind.'

guess i'll save these costumes for next year. i won't have to take any pictures.
