The woman T is staying with went full out on social media and 11 people showed up. This included the husband of our old assistant manager at the K-Mart. He has come to some of our get-togethers before so he was known by all of us. I was able to spend some time while we were outside after the actual meal talking baseball. Our old store manager, who brought me on at Big Lots, was there. 4 others were there including the pharmacy tech from my time there. She is the only person I know who has Crohn's like I do. We could commiserate with each other as to how we were feeling. We got there about 1:45 and finally left there around 4:30. From there we went back to where T was staying. 4 of us (including the pharmacy tech) sat out on the back patio until around 7:30. I left so they could have some time for "girl talk".

Overall I had a very good time. I wish I could have talked to a couple of people longer than I did, but oh well...

I forgot to mention the alcoholic chicken...

The couple that T is staying with have 2 dogs (1 of which is old and decrepit and the other is an attention whore ) and 2 chickens. They roam around the backyard and go into their cage at night. One of them apparently loves beer. When the husband came home, he came home and popped a can of beer. He drank the majority of it then poured the rest of the patio for the chicken, who promptly started drinking it. Did the same thing about 20 minutes later with the same result. One of the strangest things I have ever seen.

I wonder how the chicken will taste?

I wonder what would happen if the chicken tried to cross the road.

Finally getting a little bit of rain. We have had so little the last few weeks. After this front moves through, the next chance of rain here is Monday.

Hopefully we are finally done with the 90's for the year. It may not get above 75 the next 3 days.

A goofball girl at work asked if she could wear slippers to go with her costume today for Halloween. I said absolutely not.

Looks like someone must have had the light bulb come on in their head as when I walked out for the day, the tree was gone.

Mrs. FT and I usually do take a name from the tree and donate. We also donate toys to the Toys For Tots box at our fire station.

FT JR took his dinner upstairs to eat and fell asleep afterwards. Never woke up to watch his Blue Jays win.

Why is he allowed to eat in his room?

We didn't eat at the dining room table last night because my wife and I wanted to catch up on one of our shows before we watched the game with him.
