Besides the blogs of my friends and loved ones, I do frequent other blogs from time to time, my favorite being Dooce, by Heather Armstrong. In a recent entry, she brought up one of my favorite topics, which just goes to show that it's not just people like me, who know, mostly, who is reading their blog, who write about their urinary tract, but actual famous-type bloggers do it too.
Today, while buying many, many bags of candy at the local CVS, the woman checking me out asked if we got lots of trick or treaters in our neighborhood. "Um, yeah," I told her. Because, you know, we do. We get a fair amount. But also, I mean, the people giving out the candy might want some, right? So it's good to have extra. And it's important for all the candy to be good candy and not crap, like Wintogreen Lifesavers or something. And I really hope these neighborhood kids don't take all the Reese's Peanut Butter Cups in the first ten minutes although I know they are TOTALLY going to. It's cool, though. Truth be told, I've already had my fair share and the sun isn't even down yet. Enough to make my stomach feel a little weird. That, however, is the point. If sitting at home giving yourself diabetes isn't the best way to celebrate Halloween, I don't know what is.
