Re: Halloween Poll
Are you going to any Halloween parties / out to a bar? No, unless you count my office Halloween party. I will probably stop by that for a bit and grab some snacks.
Are you going / have you gone to Salem this month? Nooooo way. Salem traffic scares me more than ghosts.
Do you put on a costume to answer the door for trick-or-treaters? I don't plan to.
If you are dressing up this year, what is your costume? There is a costume contest at my office, but I don't think I will do much if anything. I'm still brainstorming.
If you have kids, what are they wearing for costumes? n/a
If you have pets, are you dressing them in a costume? If so, what? n/a

Are you going / have you gone to Salem this month? No! I avoid Salem in October with the same fervor I avoid Southie on St Patty's Day.
Do you put on a costume to answer the door for trick-or-treaters? The two years we've lived in our house, we haven't had one single trick-or-treater! We live on kind of a busy road, and all the houses are pretty far apart, and there's only a sidewalk on one side of the street. I never see any kids around, so I assume if there are any then they drive to those big pre-planned neighborhoods in town.
If you are dressing up this year, what is your costume? No dressing up for me! I'm lucky I'm still getting dressed in jeans and a t-shirt these days.
If you have kids, what are they wearing for costumes? n/a
If you have pets, are you dressing them in a costume? If so, what? No, we've never put any clothes on our dog. And I don't think they make costumes for bunnies!

Are you going to any Halloween parties / out to a bar? No actual parties, but some pro photographer friends of ours recently bought a house in a neighborhood that apparently has a very active Halloween so they're going to set up a booth to take photos of the kids in their costumes and give them a free print. DH and I are going to be helping hands and I think it'll be a lot of fun.
Are you going / have you gone to Salem this month? Nope. Haven't been to Salem since I was a kid and never at Halloween. I should take DH sometime though since he's not from here.
Do you put on a costume to answer the door for trick-or-treaters? Yep
If you are dressing up this year, what is your costume? I just cycle through three different generic costumes I have. This year I might throw on the butterfly wings, but kind of depends on how cold it is since we'll be outside! Maybe just some devil horns on the head instead.
Are you going to any Halloween parties / out to a bar? out to a bar next friday and thats when we're dressing up. we never do anything for halloween so i'm excited.

Are you going to any Halloween parties / out to a bar?
I love Halloween in the South End. I'm making a pot of chilie, cornbread and chocolate cupcakes. The people who live in my building will join us on the front steps for some wine and appetizers while we pass out candy. Then we will have a low key gathering in our condo.
