For the Etsy Bloggers bi-weekly blog carnival, one of the topics is all about Halloween and your Halloween plans. This year (similar to the past two years), I have to work on Halloween night...well, that's just no fun, is it! I'm not even in a work environment where you can dress up for Halloween. The best that I can do is a hoodie that I own that has cat ears sewn into it...I wear that hoodie each Halloween to work as my "costume" since it is something that I would wear on a regular occasion.
I used to remember getting so excited for Halloween when I was a kid. Halloween was almost as good as Christmas morning! Getting dressed up in a costume to go to school and then going trick-or-treating, trying to get more candy each year as compared to the year before. I would get SO much candy, an entire pillow case full and then some! My mom used to sew all of our (mine and my sister's) Halloween costumes by hand. I remember dressing up as a witch, a devil, a clown, a cheerleader, a cat, plus more. Those were the days!
Nowadays, I guess this is just part of being a "grown-up" and going to work, even if it means on Halloween night. Next year, I'm going to do the responsible thing and book the day off! I think I owe it to myself! :) And then costume parties...here I come!
(As for the picture posted above, I just grabbed an image of some awesome Tetris Halloween costumes!)

I like the tetris costume! Yes, DO take the day off, and have some fun!
I agree, it's like Christmas w/o the stress
