lazy halloween

I never really have a good excuse to buy candy except for Halloween. Actually, I mean after Halloween. You know, when everything goes on sale and instead of accumulating candy going door to door, you can just buy the stuff you know you like. In that way, trick or treating is sort of a risk, but the pro (and this is a big pro) is that it's free, and this is the factor that convinces people. Except for a little unspoken rule about trick or treating is that "you can't trick or treat if you're too old." It's lame for me cause I'm in that "too old" category now and if I go trick or treating by myself or with a friend, it may be awkward and people might not even give me candy. Now, there is a loophole to this. It's acceptable to go trick or treating if you are bringing a kid with you, which I don't have. So for me, since I'm lazy and don't feel like begging for free candy, I'm going to do the next best thing--buy really cheap candy at the store. I feel weird for doing it. first, I would be buying like three bags of candy, not for sharing, but just for me. Like some sort of candy fiend. But if buying a buttload of candy after Halloween is wrong then I don't want to be right.
