I do not like Halloween.

In the interest of having a good time, I roused my sick boyfriend, my indignant roommate, and a number of semi-indignant friends to dressing up and attending a party on Saturday. In the snow.

It wasn’t a bad evening.

But since I got that out of the way, now I can return to not liking Halloween.

Except that I do like a few Halloween type things.

I like looking at pumpkins.

I like Edward Gorey.

I like Werewolf Bar Mitzvahs.

I like The Nightmare Before Christmas.

I like the Halloween episodes of most television shows.

But other than that, I am just a Halloweenie.
