i'm eating leftover vegan pizza for breakfast. yesterday was norwalk's trick-or-treat. firstly, i would like to express my disappointment that it was not on halloween night, nor even on a weekend. a tuesday? what the crap. halloween here in ohio is not like it was when i was growing up in michigan. we would run from house to house and yell and carry on. you had to yell "trick-or-treat" to get people to come out and give you candy. it was dark. it was so much more. here and now, it's simple and uninvolved. most kids had a store-bought costume. i made our own costumes, just like i've always done.
we were ninjas! a whole family of ninjas. joshua carried nunchucks, penny had her sais that she picked out herself, and i had a sword. i was so darn excited. we trick-or-treated with nicole, shannon and killian. haha, and their dog, shrapnel. killian went as robin, and shrapnel was batman until he peed on his cape.we had to scoot outta there right when we got back, because i had ordered a half vegan, half meat lover's pizza. i felt kinda awesome walking in with a full-on ninja outfit, complete with sword, to pick up my pizza. then we went to ken and kelly's to see them and joshua's grandparents, and show them our costumes. i found out that one year, grandma dressed as a ninja, too!
there are two reasons for the title lyrics i chose for this entry. the title of the song is this secret ninja. the other reason is that lately i've been feeling so overwhelmed. i have much to do, and much that i want to do, and when i finally get the motivation, something else comes along and sucks it right back out of me. i'm trying to do as much as i can, but sometimes, i just don't feel it's worth it.
