My 9am meeting got canceled today, but they failed to send out a reminder, so I decided to make a small detour on my way back to the office and treat myself to a yummy coffee at one of my favorite coffee stands in Coeur d'Alene. It was quite clear that the two girls working in the stand were having one of those goofy, I-got-up-way-too-early-on-a-Monday type days as they were playing around and laughing about things I didn't understand. Anyway, I ordered my coffee, paid and as she handed me my drink, I asked, "do you guys have punch cards?"
She replied, "we can punch you in the face." And grinned.
Yeah. That just happened.

A Halloween to Remember
I love my friends...for many reasons, but today I'm particularly thankful that when I suggested that we dress up and celebrate Halloween like many 20-somethings do, they totally played along. While I think they were pretty blah about it to begin with, it definitely turned out to be well worth it.
I won't go into details, but it was an extremely fun night with an honorable mention of Grant and his tourist costume, complete with him distributing maps and brochures to various people throughout the night. I went as Tinkerbell, but since I didn't want to spend my life savings on an actual costume, I made it from scratch and ended up deeming it "Modern-day Tinkerbell". But, hey, I got to wear wings and draw fun things on my face, so I was good! The whole night was a success and even though Saturday was really icky for me, it was a great time.
On a totally unrelated note - tomorrow is election day and I couldn't be more excited. Excited to NOT have to watch any more political ads. Excited to stop hearing Dino Rossi complain about Gregoire even though I don't live in Washington. I may even take the liberty of ripping every single obnoxious campaign sign out of the ground within 5 miles of my house. Especially the ones that say "Ron Paul President 2008". Come on, people.
