It's just a cartoon now, but if Obama wins, it could be the future of Halloween for children in America. It certainly will be for their parents. But enough of this political BS.
Here we are, just a few days away from Halloween, and life has changed yet again. I thought I would be taking Little Rolling Thunder Trick or Treating but lo and behold, it is not to be. Little Rolling Thunder and about 6 of her road dogs are going to Trick or Treat together as a group. Can you imagine that a 7th grade girl would want to Trick to Treat with her friends instead of "Daddy"????? What in the world is going on??? Instead of me walking my little witch, ghost, bat, whatever she may be this year around, she will go with a group of girls her same age escorted by a few of the "Moms". For the first time in a few years, I will be sitting at home watching TV and hoping that I still get a cut of the spoils (I am sure I will).
Life is like this. We all know that Little Rolling Thunder will have a great time with her friends and it is not "cool" to just go with "Daddy". I am thankful that I did get to Trick or Treat again after childhood. Those times I took Little Rolling Thunder around the neighborhood will always be treasured memories. There will be a day when she has a child and as her family goes Trick or Treating, she will fondly remember those times when her "Daddy" took her Trick or Treating, just as I remember when my "Daddy" took me.
