13 Posts of Halloween: Candy!

Way Off Topic No Comments »

I think we have had trick or treaters possibly twice in the years we’ve been married. One year we ran out of candy and just stopped answering the door. That was the first year I ever lived in an apartment. We never had trick or treaters in the dorm. My parents’ house is located off the road, so we seldom got trick or treaters. Ever since that year we ran out of candy, I stock up.

Since then we may have had trick or treaters one time. That was over 11 years ago. When I buy candy, I buy the good stuff that I like. I love the small candy bars. Yummy! This year I also bought some individual packs of Teddy Grams for the baby.

I remember trick or treating as a kid. I disliked getting fruit. I don’t think anyone gives fruit anymore. Who would eat unwrapped food they got from a stranger? Even though the fruit was from people we knew, it was still a buzzkill. Tomorrow we got trick or treating with the little one. It should be fun.

Winning on eBay

Way Off Topic No Comments »

My husband has been bidding on eBay lately. It seems to come in cycles. Instead of a selling cycle, we have entered a bidding cycle. He has the same problem that countless others have run ino and that is getting outbid at the very last few minutes. He is obsessed with watching his eBay auctions. He will stop whatever he is doing and go watch the countdown just to make sure he can win it.

I should introduce him to the auction sniper Bidnapper. While I haven’t personally used it(as I’m in a selling cycle on eBay), it has some really cool features like allowing you to change your bid without going through the eBay hassle and protecting your username from searches. It’s always fun to win auctions and with an auction sniper you are likely to win more.

Yeah! We are picking up this game today. Being huge comic fans this is on our must have list. It’s funny because a friend showed us a video game trailer featuring his favorite character Nightcrawler. Since then, Joe has wanted to get the game. I found from the Marvel website that it was available and relayed that to him. He acted like he really didn’t believe or not that interested. Well, last night he is reading the latest Game Informer and realizes that it has been released. Now he is all excited about getting the game.
