The Year They Cancelled Halloween...Pshhh

     Hey guess what? Nope....That's not it either.....Keep trying.....Wrong again....Ok I'll just tell you. I got a dog! :) A little puppy named Nemo. (I came up with the name.) He's about 13 weeks old and adorable. So we went out to look for Halloween costumes when we saw that Petsmart had this "Adopt a Dog" thing going on. Dogs are adorable so obviously we went in. They were so cute! This company called the Clover Run Rescue (or something like that) were in charge of it. They rescue dogs from the south and bring them up here. There was too much adorable to handle so we got one. At first we thought he was going to be shy. He just sat around and didn't do much. He was still adorable, though. Then one day out of nowhere, he had all this energy. He was running around and chewing stuff up. He is the most cutest thing ever. Except when he tries to steal my Halloween candy. 

     He seemed fine during his first hurricane, though. What? A hurricane?...Wait. You knew about the hurricane? Was it the news people? They give everything away! Spoilers.... Well anyways we did have a hurricane. Mostly wind, less actual hurricane. But it was still slightly scary. A tree fell onto my back porch. Our trampoline was tossed around like a Frisbee. And they even cancelled school for three days. It was kind of cool because they cancelled school on Halloween. Or it would have been cool except that they cancelled Halloween, too. They can't cancel Halloween! So they postponed it. Apparently it's this Saturday. It's the most stupidest thing I have ever heard. The year they cancelled Halloween. Psshhhh. They don't have that kind of authority! So I went anyway. Just around my neighborhood with Annaliese and Sam. At first it was really awkward because there was about nobody out there, but after a while other kids came out. It turned out to be ok because I'm going again on Saturday. Thank you, City of Westerly, for giving us two opportunities to stuff ourselves with sweets.

Ps. I'm not using either of the costume ideas I said I would because it turns out that Ronald McDonald is easier said than done. Instead I'm being the Wicked Witch of the West. (Elphaba from Wicked.) I know it's not that original, but you know what? I don't care. Except that on Wednesday I didn't feel like putting it on so I'm saving it for Saturday and I went as a text message. Emoticon shirt and text bubble tights. Cool, huh? Credit to Ciara and Sam for coming up with the idea.
