Halloween plan.

What am I dressed up as for Halloween? a responsible adult. I’m hosting/supervising a party of 15-year-olds. Occasionally, I go to the door and wave at a departing parent to show them a grown-up is here. Also, I listen vaguely to the muffled conversation from upstairs (in case it turns into screaming?) and try to keep the dog from eating any small children. My main plan for the evening is tackling this academic paper. And maybe reading the Economist. Or the rest of this book about the internet.

I think it’s a pretty effective disguise, really. I bet you wouldn’t recognize me.
