Not so long ago I told a coworker that I wished Halloween could be every day.

Every day? She asked with a smirk.

Like she was skeptical or something. Like she did not notice I was wearing a candy corn sweater in August. Like I didn’t just return from Midsummer Scream, a weekend long Halloween convention in Long Beach for the tenth year in a row. Like I didn’t carry everything and the kitchen sink in my Mickey Halloween tote bag to work every day, even in spring. Like I didn’t have a dozen spooky or Halloween curios decorating my office cubicle 365 days a year. I didn’t already buy a $30 bag of the “good candy” for the community candy bowl. Like I didn’t just ask if pumpkin spice latte was back yet. Like I didn’t already say thirty times this year that I can’t wait for Halloween!

Yes. Every day.

And I’m in better company than she is.

Happy Halloween!🎃
