No school tomorrow? What?!
Yeah, there's no school tomorrow because of a "professional day".
Basically, the teachers take a day to prepare the lessons and other things because they say they don't have enough time during the regular school week to do it.
Whatever.
All the teens were really good, they've all gone home now, but they were all well behaved while they were here.
At one point they started talking about Halloween and trick or treating, parties, and what Halloween costumes they were all going to be wearing.
I told them all they were too old to go trick or treating, it's for much younger kids, not teenagers, and they laughed, said they knew, but it's always fun to try.
They weren't too loud which is good, because I was busy trying to fill out some papers for my medical stuff.
I have this huge packet of papers to fill out and get mailed by the 23rd, so I was atrying to finish them all up when it hit me that there was no school tomorrow.
It's going to be a very long weekend around here.
The teens are already at each others throats just 5 minutes after all the friends left.
Great.
Just great.

I actually would not mind teens trick-or-treating, as long as they wore cool costumes.
But I stopped giving out candy years ago, because no one here can be arsed to wear a friggin' costume. The kids just dress in black, and that's a costume?
Screw that. We always vacate the premises on Halloween night now. This year, it's on a Friday, so we're going away for the weekend of the Maine Brewers Festival.
It's sad, giving out candy to trick-or-treaters used to be fun. But not when they can't be arsed to wear costumes!
