My violin teacher is back! His house was okay and everything...actually I think my friend's clarinet teacher checked up on it for him, cause they're really good friends. Which is odd...but maybe not. I mean, my friend is a lot like his clarinet teacher and I'm a lot like my violin teacher, so...I guess it's fitting.

I got up at a wretched 5:30 to get my school done early today. I'm hoping that if I drink enough Coke and eat enough chocolate, I'll be up and awake tonight. Today, on the university campus, we had crusaders and hobbits sitting in the classrooms. Some kids never grow up...I fear I shall be one of them. :-P

I'm planning on wearing fake nails tonight. My fingernails have never grown out past my finger for violin reasons (I tell my friends it's a ritual part of the rules of my religion; violinism)so that'll be weird.

Mom decided she won't let me hand out garlic, cause it's too expensive for kids to take home and throw out. So I'll just roam around the neighborhood looking threatening.

Maybe just one clove each, that wouldn't be too expensive. I bet candy would be more appealing, anyway. Unless you're Italian.

I just handed one clove each out to the kids who were rude and/or didn't dress up. Minimal effort demands minimal rewards. :-)
