charliesmumHey guys.
I made a post two years ago asking what everyone's earliest Halloween memory was, and got some fun responses, so I thought I'd do it again.
You could substutute 'favourite' or 'worst' for 'earliest' if you'd like.
My earliest memory is on the post I made two years ago. My worst was probably the year I got sick. I forget how old I was, 10 or 11, maybe younger and I was really sick. It was one of those illness that just sap your energy, but I really wanted to go out. I remember putting a costume together - a dress and a hat or something, and I made it about halfway down the block before having to give in and go home. I was so sad, and my mom was very sympathetic.
So, what about you flist?

on 2009-10-30 04:32 pm (UTC)I think I was 9 at the time. Me and the neighborhood kids were going door to door, trick-or-treating. We knocked on our neighbor's door and this young guy answered it. There were moving boxes in the hallway behind him.
"Trick or treat!" we shouted gleefully.
He blinked. "It's Halloween?" Then he started panicking. "Oh crap, it's Halloween! I forgot!"
He told us to hold on a minute and went down the hall, then returned with handfuls of change for each of us. "I'm so sorry, kids, I just moved in yesterday, I forgot to get candy." We didn't mind, because he was giving us money, which is better than candy, but we found it very amusing. How could someone forget it was Halloween? I guess you can if you've just moved!
