Halloween Wrap Up

Another Halloween has come and gone. Jeff (who reads this, I think--hi, Jeff) didn't want to half-ass costumes at the last minute for my dad's party, so we just wore what we'd been wearing that day. In my mind, I was a PC and he was a Mac because I was wearing brown pants and he was wearing jeans. But nobody actually asked us what we were supposed to be.

DAD: (drunk and probably high) Have you checked out the rec room? I got this awesome Flat Tire poster from a friend.

ME: (totally sober and not having a good time) Do you mean Fat Tire, like the beer?

DAD: Ha ha, I guess I don't know because I don't drink very much.

ME: Ha ha. Sure.

DAD: If I drank a lot I'd know what that beer was really called!

ME: Or you could just read it right.

DAD: Or I could just smack you.

(Awkward silence.)

Jeff and I left pretty soon after that.
