There are only 55 shopping days left until......Halloween

The passing of Labor Day means all of the retailers can take their 'My boss can suck it' plates and 'I ain't workin' THIS Monday, b*tch' t-shirts off of the shelves and replace them with orange & black decorative tampons and stuff. Yes friends, it's my favorite time of year - Halloween. Ahhhhhhh.........the one time of year you can rob a Denny's and not get arrested..................oh, and you can also get to dress up!

Has anyone else noticed that this year Halloween falls on a FRIDAY? Whoa. Dude. Dangerous. In keeping with tradition, I will be hosting a Halloween "party" at my "place" on the top "floor" in the lovely Avalon "towers" in "SOMA"*. If you've been to one of my parties before, you KNOW you will be gettin' yo' grub on and yo' drink on while you're gettin' your cheesy games (or haunted house on). This year, you can even play pool or watch the fireworks from the outdoor patio (there are fireworks on Halloween, right)?
And, oh, this year it will be EXTREMELY EXCLUSIVE. Only the first 49 people (in honor of the San Francisco 49ers**) will be admitted. Regular readers of the bloggity blogs5 in the Bay Area will get first dibs - official invites to go out in a week or so. If interested, post a response to this entry and you will automatically be added to the VIP list - note: this means you will probably have to WORK the party.....and/or be the subject in the barrel when people are bobbing for.....well, you.

So, now that we've got that behind us.....was anyone else in the city over Labor Day? Holy crap. THAT is why SF is so amazing. Summer is finally here!!!! Bike ride to Marin with da boys, tennis with my blistered partner, sushi and pub crawl with friends, way too many drinks with Sunset co-workers (there goes what little reputation I was trying to salvage). All good in the 'hood.

Halloween theme to be announced shortly. Peace (in the middle east).
