another blonde moment

I had a very blonde moment this weekend. 

I was at the store and bought Halloween candy - I've been holding off on buying it so I don't tempt myself.  I brought it home and hid it from myself - out of sight out of mind (working so far!).    I bought it because I was thinking that Halloween was NEXT Monday and I didn't want the candy to be picked over by the time I got around to buying it on Sunday. 

It wasn't until later that I realized Halloween isn't until the following week (a week from Monday), and the really bad part - I was skipping over my birthday thinking that Halloween was next week.  Who forgets their own birthday when thinking of the week ahead?  Can I blame work that has been busier than ever recently?

Aside: I can't bring myself to buy candy I don't like, I should so it would be really easy to resist, but I just can't bring myself to do it, and honestly there isn't much candy I don't like.....though I'm not a fan of candy corn.

No big Halloween plans here, just handing out candy to the kids in the neighborhood.
