I have already decided I'm not leaving my house on Halloween 2020. No matter what parties invite me, no matter how near or far they are to me, no matter who throws them or what temptations there might be to lure me to them, I am not leaving my home on Halloween 2020. Here are some reasons why and I may come up with others…
- I don't like to go out on Halloween anyway…
- …and next year, Halloween falls on a Saturday so it will be rowdier with more parties and people partying 'til late in the night…
- …and it's a Leap Year and they're always a little weird…
- …and there will be a full moon that night so there will be real werewolves prowling about…
- …and it'll be a night when we set the clocks back so the debauchery and mayhem will last for an extra hour…
- …and most frightening of all, it will be only three days until this country votes for President so there will be last-minute rallies and much screaming and yelling and charges and counter-charges and predictions that we will all die if the wrong person is elected and everyone will be crazy anyway.
So plan on joining me and not going anywhere on October 31, 2020. If you need me that day, I'll be under my bed shivering.
