Trick or treat
I know what you're thinking, trick or treak? Isn't it too early to be talking about Halloween? The answer is yes. Even I know that and I love Halloween. It’s my favorite holiday. In my book, Halloween even beats out Christmas and Armistice Day. I love the parties, the foods, the smells, the chance to dress up and scare the crap out of small children… everything. That said, while I was in stinky Kroger today buying a Sobe Green Tea(the first Sobe drink I’ve ever bought), I noticed they already had Halloween decorations for sale. Who in their right mind needs something like sixty-eight days to prepare for Halloween? Who is thinking, “Oh no, there’s just under seventy days left before Halloween. I need to start putting up my fake cobwebs!”? It’s still August, it’s still summer. People should still be buying little shovels and cheap plastic buckets, not miniature witches and fake skulls. Just one more reason I don’t like the stinky Kroger.

Oh man, the memories... are you going to wear a pumpkin mask this year? I love it when you wear the pumpkin mask.

At least you're not in the UK where it was reported that Christmas items went on sale in Harrods.
