I love this time of year. I was sitting here playing FFXI for a little while, and listening to Skittles jingling his collar and I heard this weird-ass sound. It took me a minute to realize that it was the sound of the leaves skittering across the sidewalks outside.

We took Skit to the vet last week to get his itchy spot checked out. They sent us home with some cream and some medicines for him and it’s clearing up really nicely. I was expecting to get royally screwed since it was an emergency vet facility, but they were very nice, and while it was expensive, it wasn’t much more than we had anticipated paying for him. And all things considered, he’s a very healthy fuzzy.

The other night when I was attempting to get to sleep on the couch I watched Dirty Pretty Things, which was a really good movie, much better than I’d thought it would be. I mostly watched it because it has Audrey Tautou in it.

Last night we went to Mom’s for dinner and watched the Pats get creamed. Apparently only one New England team can be good at any given time. We passed out candy, turned the lights off at about 7pm, and some dickheaded kids came up the stairs and wanted candy. Of course, I don’t think any of them were in costume, and they were several years past the Trick-or-Treating age. At one point they rang the bell when there were no lights and no open doors and we ignored them - those are the ones that we think Silly-Stringed our car.
