Hehe, I have to admit that I'm a very greedy person. Mwahaha, candy...mmmm...

No offense to anyone, but that's just me. Halloween isn't a day I celebrate. I don't believe in it, nor do I believe in wearing silly costumes or dressing up animals in silly costumes. I don't think they like it and it makes me feel sorry for them. I think it annoys them.

Then you certainly don't know my Daisy. She *LOVES* getting dressed up. She loves all the attention she gets, and loves to show off.

Hehe.. the worst was once I saw a guy who graduated high school a year before me out trick or treating. THAT is just wrong. I was out with Nathan, taking his nephew out trick or treating!

Wow, that is late to be out trick or treating!

I haven't gone out trick or treating since I was 11, so I'm going through withdrawal. This shall be my last time.

I haven't dressed up for Halloween in ....ages....must have been since grade school.

I, do, however *ehem* torture Nebo and Lady dressing and we take them trick-or-treating to a few houses we know. They get treats, so I really think they enjoy it. There's also a Halloween Party at Petsmart and at the dog park so we'll be going to those too. Yes, I am fully aware of how loser-ish it is that the only Halloween parties a 19 year old is going to are dog parties.

[RubyMutt]

Well, I'm a loser too then, Amy!

Tom & Kat (tomkatzid) just told me about a "Dog-O-Ween" dog costume party at an off leash park. I will definitely be going there! My boyfriend & I went to a Halloween dance at my college last year... it kinda sucked I probably won't dress up this year.

[ILoveMyAbbyGirl]

I still have my pumpkin costume if my mom lets me go... LMAO! I'm READY! I love trick or treating, cuz my bro doesn't share when he gets home, if he even goes! Half the time he doesn't want to, believe it or not! I wanna go really bad... mmmm..... CandY!!!!!

Yeah, come to think of it, I remember seeing them in sweaters once.... and I think the other had on a tie made out of paper.

I'm planning on dressing up as [color=deep pink]P!nk[/color]! I'm getting a wig, not dying my hair! And I'm having a theatre friend of mine do the crazy makeup.

Halloween is HUGE in Madison. But sadly it gets sort of violent, like breaking store windows/rioting.....so I won't stay out late!!!



P.S. Doggie not included...

[Kfamr]

Not sure.

More than likely, nothing. I normally just take some of my ocusins around to trick or treat. I don't really like to bring the dogs because it's not safe enough out around that time.


And about what PCB about dressing dogs up -- My two LOVE it.

[binka_nugget]

I think I'm going to stay home for a majority of the night. I may go around 2 blocks or so to get enough candy to last me a few days because that's all I ever eat anyways. Then, I'll stay home w/the pups and hand out candy. It'll be a good time to socialize both with other people and practicing our sit/stay command.

LOL! No, not barbie clothes, but doll clothes. Barbie clothes would never fit. I only put it on them for 1 second, JUST for a picture, and then take it off. I've seen dogs wearing halloween costumes on halloween, and they have it on for hours and the ones I saw looked VERY annoyed and upset. I felt sorry for them. I think its fun to dress up pets for a picture, but I think many don't like to be dressed for long periods of time. That's cool how some of your dogs actually enjoy it! Perhaps they're immune to the torture. LOL Just kidding.

I still think Halloween's a silly day. I mean, it just doesn't make sense to me. I also find it dangerous, to have little kids going around knocking on the doors of just about ANYONE. How do they know they're knocking on a good person's house, or a dangerous person?

Several years ago, one of our friend's friend opened the door of his house on Halloween for trick-or-treaters in costumes. As they were handing out the candy, the people ran in the house and robbed their whole house, after tying the whole family in the bathroom. Ever since then, I have *hated* Halloween. I never liked it, and never participated in it, because I found it silly, but now I really hate it. We live in a safe area where such things are very uncommon, but its sad that such things happen on Halloween. Sad and scary.

Either way, I find it silly to have ghosts and goblins and spider webs and SPIDERS hanging around your house, and wearing all sorts of wierd things and going out. I mean, I just don't find any sense in it, and I don't find how scary things that people hate and dread can suddenly become fun on one day. Maybe its just me, but I don't like the whole idea of Halloween to begin with. For those of you who love it, enjoy your day, and eat all the candies you wish for!

I am going to be a witch !! , Tikeya is going to be a fairy pricess!!

[bluekat]

I agree with PCB, I'm not too crazy about Halloween. But I LOOOOOVE Christmas When everyone's into the Christmas spirit and all, lol, its really fun for me
But, for Halloween I don't know what I'll do. I want to stay home and hand out candy, but my friend also wants me to host a party with her. Which I don't really want to do, and I really don't think anyone's going to the party, they have other plans.
ok, back to what I'm going to be....I might be something scary.and put LOTS of makeup on my face, lol. But the only reason why I'm dressing up is for school. If we don't dress up as anything, we're not allowed to go to the "dance-a-thon"

[Cataholic]

Maybe cause I have black (mostly, he he) cats, but, I do like some Halloween decorations. I agree, it is for the children, but in college, my boyfriend and I did go out one year, and were immediately spotted as 'posters' (why does that look wrong?).

Now, I sit outside on my little porch, and chat with the neighbors, and hand out 'good' candy (no candy corns from this house). I always enjoy the polite friendly kids, and it makes me think their is still hope for manners in this world! I sit out front to keep the doorbell from ringing all night long..the cats hate it. I don't think I will dress Binx up this year...unless it is as a mini-pony!
