Romeo

It’s so funny, as gung-ho as Nathan was about his Balthazar Bratt costume and as much as he loved wearing it his first three trick-or-treat sessions this year, he decided at the last second that he did not want to dress as him for the day of. Instead, he wanted to wear his costume from last year... Romeo from PJ Masks. The wig and steampunk goggles were easy to find and reuse, but we got exceptionally lucky that his lab coat still fit.

Facts

I used to love horror movies when I was younger so this Buzzfeed article with behind-the-scenes facts about them is right up my alley! Enjoy.

Quitters

So far this season, Katie and I have quit watching three veteran shows. And it feels good. The Good Place was first as it was already on the fence followed by Blue Bloods. The latter we stopped because we felt highly betrayed by their killing off of Danny Regan’s wife in the off season. The actress’ contract was up and they didn’t re-sign her but they also didn’t bother to bring her back to finish things up. Finally, we also quit on NCIS: Los Angeles. This show just has been weird for a while. Why is a Naval investigative team running what amounts to black ops missions? 

Soul

Speaking of TV, it’s amazing to me how much Milo Ventimiglia is the heart and soul of the show This Is Us. I never much cared for him in Heroes and I wanted to punch him in Gilmore Girls. Now? He’s just so great. 

Photos

This won’t be nearly as smooth a transition as usual. Sorry. But after trick or treating tonight, we went out to dinner with my parents. Nathan took my iPhone and started snapping pics.  

He has a future in photography, doesn’t he?

I need some candy.
