Margaritas, 'Tater Skins, and Candy, OH MY!!

It was an eventful weekend, to say the least.  Friday night the hubster and I dressed up as a tacky tourist couple (photos to follow) and went to a co-worker's 40th b-day costume party at a local bar.  We haven't dressed up for Halloween in over 10 years and it was a lot of fun.  I drank way too many margaritas, munched on too many 'Tater Skin chips (I haven't had those suckers in YEARS!!) and danced the night away to songs from the 80's.  It was a good time.

Saturday afternoon was my youngest son's 5th birthday party.  I had nine little 4-5 year old boys running around my house coked out of their minds on cupcakes and fruit punch.  It was wild, but it was fun. 

Sunday night we took the boys to my in-laws house for cake-and-icecream celebration of Little C's b-day.  Then we took the boys trick-or-treating around my in-laws neighborhood.  Usually its snowing on Halloween, but this year was perfect!  The kids didn't even have to wear their coats over their costumes.

We got home and sorted through all the candy.  The boys paid me their "fees" of a small bag of candy corns and one mini Snickers bar, and that was that.

Until they went to bed and I got a hankerin' for more chocolate.  I only had a few things, but it was enough to make me feel guilty and fat and pathetic.  I managed to stay out of the candy this morning, but was assaulted at work by leftover birthday cake, pumpkin-chocoate-chip cookies, and a big bowl of HALLOWEN CANDY!!  AAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHH!!

I had 1/4 of a pumpkin cookie and have been avoiding the teacher's lounge like the plague.  But it doesn't help that its 10 steps away from my office.  I'm about to go have lunch now and I hope I'll get full enough to avoid the sweets for the rest of the afternoon.

Say a few (million) prayers for me, my friends.  I can already hear the KitKat bars calling my name...
