'K, kids are skipping my house.
Got the porch light on, the plastic jack 'o lantern full of candy in the window, and I've had two groups in the past two hours.

I dunno. Maybe I should put some pants on.

1. I think my dog's scaring kids away
I have the three locked in the basement (dogs, not kids!) and one is a whiny howler - so it probably sounds really eerie from the outside.

(But if I didn't have 'em in the basement, they'd go berserk everytime the doorbell rang, rush the door, and eat all the candy!)

6. None here & my light has been on all night
I think they prefer going to the mall, where it's warm.
