<p>Between all the candy and cupcakes and cookies I consumed in a very short period of time and the thrill of doing the Thriller dance (people kept asking! And, um, I <em>did</em> practice&#8230;), I had a great Halloween!</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter" title="Halloween Michael Jackson" src="http://i597.photobucket.com/albums/tt59/TheStyleSample/Halloween2_1009.jpg" alt="" width="560" height="532" /></p>
<p>Of course, I always have a great time on Halloween&#8211;really, an entire day that revolves around dressing up and getting free candy? Throw in some shoe shopping and I&#8217;m gold! Here I am last year as Prince (around 2:40):</p>

<p>(I swear I didn&#8217;t know they were taping&#8211;if I had, I might have, um, <em>conducted</em> myself a bit differently. I just discovered this video on Saturday.)</p>
<p>Sadly enough, all of the above only serves as proof that what little sense I possess is seriously in peril.</p>
