The Halloween That Almost Wasn't

Last night was Halloween.  I wasn't planning to go out.  As much as I am trying to make myself go out and do things I wasn't necessarily in the mood to go out til all hours of the night (or morning, as the case may be).  But at the last minute decided to accept an invitation from a friend, bonus that he said that he and his friends weren't going to be staying out too late.  I guess a benefit of hanging out with other people who work.  So I went over to said friend's house, and we hitched a ride out to PB with one of his other friends.  I am grateful she had room for me.  So after a little bit of pre-partying at yet another friend's house, we headed out to our destination.  It turned out to be pretty fun.  It wasn't the crazy packed experience of bars or halloween parties past, but it was fun in it's own right.  I was glad I went out.  The people were all super nice, though I had met some of them at a Halloween party we had gone to last year.  So it was fun.  I had a good time.  And I even managed to get almost enough sleep.
