The non-existent T.O. video has been found
With an hour to go before bedtime, I can declare this Hallowe’en as over and done. The pouring rain kept the monsters from the stoop, and the dog only had to use his deep and dangerous voice once. Imagine; a hot meal without interruption. A good hot meal, involving pork and chicken and potatoes with leeks. Better than bagged candy, any time (although my eyes are peeled in case we did buy treats0.
The group pizza lunch involved some costumes. Winner, by a half ballot box, was the “green army man” with her own portable base. Pity, no pictures on my phone, although there might be something in the collective network folder later in the week. When asked, I explained that my intended costume involved a man with a dog, but that the bus company doesn’t allow unpackaged pets. Saved, by a wet nose. Of course, that same bus company required just under two hours to get me back home this evening, so they win.
The missing video of a certain T.O. mayor (the one that definitely didn’t exist) is in the hands of the police. Can’t wait to hear how this story spins out. Is there something about powerful people and an aversion to telling the truth? Is that the real seat of power? Kind of makes what our parents tried to teach us seem, I don’t know, less than optimal. Or maybe a moral compass is still better than being hated by your peers. I’ll have to work that one out.
