Some friends from work and I decided that, since we got stuck working on Halloween, we needed to find time to celebrate. Since trick-or-treating was out, we went bar hopping instead. A little Zombie Stomp to celebrate the end of summer. We got a couple weird looks, and a few cheers, plus scared a few children, so I think it was worth it. On the one hand, we have the zombie accountant and his dead skier girlfriend. The other is the zombie bride and homeless boyfriend. What do you think?

Halloween night, and the cottages at work have been furiously decorating all week. One cottage in particular has been busy. The staff picked the theme, and I wish I could have gotten a picture of the girls, but their all asleep by the time I get there. I'll keep an eye open.

Talk about the wrong outfit. Denver International Airport reported about 12" of snow over the last two days. It was great. We took the kids out and threw them around the first day of it, now it's time to actually deal with it.

Oh, pumpkin carving is a fun but messy business. The kids really seemed to enjoy it though, as did my girlfriend and our friend Jen. We did 6: two for Jen (a Yoda silhouette and a ghost) and then four for our patio. We haven't lit them at all, and now the kids are with their father for the weekend, so they may remain unlit. But it was a good time.

Oh, what a beautiful morning. A nice snowy day, the kind just made for hot chocolate and fireplaces. Not looking forward to catching the train to school though. Gonna be a cold walk. We're supposed to get up to 15 inches, according to some reports. Not sure I'm buying that. Still, beats the Arizona summer.

It's interesting to see what kind of people ride the light rail. This young lady got on at the University of Denver stop. She and her friend were heading downtown to meet some friends. She must have recently celebrated a birthday, she talked on and on about the gifts she'd gotten, many of which sounded more appropriate for a younger girl. The purse apparently was a gift from an uncle who is currently in Switzerland. Ah, the things people talk about.

That redheaded beauty that shows up on the train, showed up yet again. A great body, beautiful hair, I just wish she smiled more. I also wish I was the type of guy to strike up a conversation. On the other hand, I suppose my girlfriend would object. And then, my mystery Red is probably way to young for me. Still, she does make the train ride to school much more pleasant.
