I like to listen to audio books sometimes. Anyone else like them?

I'm kinda meh about them.
My favorite genres are historical fiction and fantasy (especially urban fantasy), and I like dogs and cats. (I prefer cats a little, but I still love dogs.)

Any plans for Halloween?

The only thing we have planned so far is handing out candy for Halloween. We never used to have many trick or treaters, but my neighborhood's had a bunch of families with kids move in the last two or three years, so we got a ton of kids the past two years, and I'm expecting that to continue. It's nice seeing the kids in their costumes.
We might put on a horror movie or watch ghost shows, which is what we do a lot of years.
What about you?

I love to watch horror movies but passing out family is fun too!

Yeah, passing out candy is fun. This Halloween, we got about a dozen trick or treaters. I was surprised when one of the new-ish families (they've been in the neighborhood about 2 or so years) handed me a goodie bag full of candy and sweets after I put some candy in their toddler's candy basket.

I have a trip in Antigua planned next year 2024, celebrating 25 years of marriage! Boy, can you believe we met on AOL? That was before everyone started meeting and falling in love on the internet!

No one remembers dial up, right??? I have fiber internet now, what a big change!

Have fun on your trip! Congratulations on 25 years of marriage.
I vaguely remember floppy disks.
And yeah, it's slightly crazy to think how far technology has come.

I like to stay inside and drink something cold, like an iced coffee or a smoothie when it's hot out.
