    I have not decided what I'm gonna wear to hand out candy tonight.

    Yes, it's 1:30 in the morning here and I'm thinking about #Halloween. I'm sad that it's going to be over in fewer than 24 hours!

    Options include: a hobbit, a Star Trek ensign (Cerritos) -- or Lieutenant junior grade, depending on how many pips I can find -- Allan from the Barbie movie, Tom Baker era Doctor Who, some kind of character wearing a cape and a black top hat, because I have lots of capes and a black top hat, a blowup unicorn, a person riding a blowup unicorn ,or just putting on a big brown bear onesie and being cozy.

    Currently I'm clearly suffering from decision paralysis and it's going to completely depend on how the weather turns out in the evening. Last year it was too cold to dress up as Allan, so I just put on a blue yeti onesie so I was warm enough. Eh

    Also last year, my bowl of potatoes was a big hit? So my family suggested that I dress up as a hobbit again this year and hand out potatoes in addition to candy. So that might actually be what I end up doing.

    The last time I dressed up as a hobbit for Halloween, I made up a whole hobbit front yard at the top of my driveway, but I'm not gonna do that again this year. There's a car parked where the hobbit front yard was last time!

    A bowl of white potatoes sits on a long table also covered with bowls of candy.
    A twilight photo of my front porch with a Bag End tapestry hanging off of it and the top of my driveway decked out with mums, a fire pit, a rocking chair, pumpkins, and festive lights.
    A picture of the fire pit in brighter light with mums around it and a wooden bench with candy sitting on it on the right side, and you can see my dragon skeleton on the garden wall in the distance. Over the fire pit, a cast-iron pan is sitting with chestnuts roasting in it.
    Me indoors against a blue wall dressed up as Cerritos ensign in a blue uniform with the white boots with blue trim. I have a green wig on and I'm almost doing the classic Vulcan hand sign (the camera shutter went before I got myself doing the sign). The green makeup that I was going to wear with this costume did not turn out that year. So I just put green freckles and green lipstick on.
