So you could never tell by the fact that I am dressed all in orange and black, have my Halloween socks on (with the jingle ghosts), have been coloring pumpkin pictures for the kids today, and prepared 7 halloween 'treats' (play-doh attached to a note that says, "Happy Halloween from your speech teacher, Jennifer" on them, that I may have ruined Halloween. How do you ruin Halloween? you might ask. Well, as I was coming up stairs this morning, I saw some movement on the landing. Being the level-headed person I have become around crawly things, I set my stuff down, and went into the bathroom to grab a couple Kleenex, and went back to get rid of the crawliness. I realized as I was about to attack, that it was a spider. And as I squished him in the Kleenex, I thought to myself, "Is it bad luck or something to kill a spider on Halloween? Does that make me like the Scrooge of Halloween? Or what? I may never know...
P.S. There was some looney congressman on the radio this morning trying to spread the word about the HHCI (Halloween Healthy Child Initiative) which would make it illegal to hand out just candy on Halloween. In order to not get break the law, you would have to hand out fruits and vegetables as well as candy. See why he seems looney?

Maybe it was a zombie spider and was already dead.
What fun would Halloween be if all you got was fruit and vegetables? I don't know very many kids that would want to go trick-or-treating if that was the case!
LoL...I can't believe you felt bad for killing a spider on Halloween!! EEWW!
