Halloweenie

I love Halloween. I'm not sure when I'll consider myself too old to dress up but I don't see that happening any time soon. For last weekend's Halloween party, I was a black widow (black hat with veil, spiderweb stockings, and a red hourglass brooch). For *this* week's Halloween party, I'm thinking a gold digger... gold dress, gold accessories, gold make-up, and a little golden shovel. We'll see.
But some people out there don't like Halloween, including Roz Chast, a cartoonist I'm sure you've seen in the New Yorker and other publications. The amusing part is that her husband goes all out for the holiday while she bunks down in the house, waiting for November.
