lesliepearAs Moxie and Inky (in abstensia) would say - its their holiday!
I used to joke about sticking them in the window with suction cups for decoration.
I wore my "costume" today. I have a hat shaped liked Figment from Disney World and a stuffed figment. I also had on my black cat earings and halloween socks. I was surprised to see people here in the halloween spirit - its been years since I've seen this @ work (and I was on maternity leave last year). I came in and saw Jennifer wearing bunny ears talking to Eyal in a yamuka and Paul. Amusing. Aileen wore leopard cat ears while leading a presentation and Gail came in a cool jester hat. And Susan was playing the munsters theme. And now Thomas (a black guy bald with mustache) is wearing the ears while being on the phone. And I see candy.
I got a Fisher Price catalogue last night. In addition to the Little People Xmas and Nativity Sets, they came out with a Hanuka set of a jewish family with a lighting menorah. I'm getting that. I'm not sure Alan's really old enough to play with it this year, but I'm making a statement by getting it - just as I always used to order the chanuka item(s) when I sold Avon - some years were good (mugs, fridge magnets, ceramic dredles) - some were bad (sabbath candles and mezzuahs - not really chanuka gifts, plus you either have them or NOT.) - I wonder what Avon's selling this year - anyone know?
I watched a little CSI with Alan at bedtime. I blocked the screen so he couldn't see because it got graphic but then I turned it off - NOT FOR HIM. Anyway, he woke up at 10:30 last night - I hope CSI didn't give him a nightmare :(

Date: 2003-10-31 10:23 am (UTC)I want to get Alex and Ben the Christmas village set to put in front of the tree, since I can't put presents under it. I bet Alan would like the Hanuka set, Alex started playing with Little People right after he turned one. It would be a fun tradition to get it out every year and to talk about the holiday with him!
