Halloween is today - oh joy

[texanjoker]

Survived the night ...Lucky I got off earlier then others as it is NOW going nuts across the area. The most boring thing that happened was standing talking to a person and about 50-75 feet away two cars pretty much hit head on with me watching. I couldn't believe how far one car bounced back after the impact. One was probably totaled. Fortunately they all survived and had insurance. I imagine they will be very sore tomorrow. Hopefully no long term injuries. I hope those of you taking your kids out had a great time.

Stopped off for a quick brew on the way home and ran into the drunks I didn't want to deal with so I went home. If you could have heard this ladies high pitched drunken voice as they were asking her to leave

I was doing trick and treat for "bullets" not candies. Yeah, it comes after Sandyhook event.

Just about as bad as several hundred middle schoolers the day AFTER Halloween! God grant me patience tomorrow!

Well, I don't know how it was in your classes today (Friday morning), but so far in mine it's been eerily quiet. A few more than normal folks absent... and more than a couple that are here are looking green around the gills! <grin> And high school kids thing they're immortal! Ha!

It was relatively quiet for me too. Everybody there, but tired, and it was iPod Day (block out drugs for red ribbon week) so my kids just plugged in and we chilled all day. Nice.

That's good. My son had football practice at 0600 the next day (middle school)

Started thinking about work. I haven't worked a Halloween night in YEARS. I absolutely despise working it. Too many bad things have happened over the decades working it. People trying to take my head off with golf clubs; bottles thrown at us at parties; people spitting in our faces; shootings; stabbings; fighting drunks; chasing drunks; more drunks; robberies; drunks; assaults; drunks; 'adults' walking up knowing we are leo's pointing their so called 'fake' guns at us thinking it's funny = more drunks' dwi crashes; idiots running around robbing children for their candy.

Lord grant me the patience tonight! If anybody is at home pugging a cold one take a sip for me

If people are pointing "fake" guns at you thinking it's funny, I hope they're being arrested and spending the night in jail. Isn't that assault?
