The Winds of Change

I just realized today that Halloween is coming up. Well, I knew it was coming but I forgot kinda. As a school bus driver there are some holidays you wish did not exist. Valentine's Day. St. Patrick's Day (remember, for a fourth grader it is a moral necessity to pinch those who have not donned the green for the day's festivities). Halloween...basically any day in which the teachers use as an excuse to hop the kids up on sugar and take them to the play ground for the day.

I was all stoked this year since the holiday known as Halloween was on a Sunday. Then this little Kindergartener, with her big, cute, brown eyes, and yells I am dressing up on Friday!!!

Talk about dissappointment. I used to be so excited for Halloween but now as the responsible adult who has to buy 250 children candy when they get off my bus and then clean up there mess and deal with the sugar-drugged children who say things like, "I was not standing up on the bus, it was Spider-Man!", I am just not that excited for Halloween this year.

But as the winds of change alter my view of Halloween, there is one thing which just floats my boat. I will probably never get tired of saying things for the pure joy of shock value. So yeah...Anna's is not pregnant yet...but just wait...soon...like maybe tomorrow...
