Because that’s what friends are for.

Last year Halloween was two days before the NYC Marathon, and it was also on a school night.

I had to behave myself.

And I was trick-or-treating with friends who were pulling this along behind them in a wagon:

I know Halloween is mainly about the kids.

But this year, with Halloween being on a Friday,

and two marathons in the last month behind me, I was ready to let loose.

I was ready to really enjoy that wagon full of beer.

And then, this afternoon, I got a text from my wagon-full-of-beer-pulling friend.

We’ve got lice. I have to cancel Halloween at our house.

Fuck.

I mean, that totally sucks for her.

But it also put a serious kink in my plans.

So, I scambled. Brainstormed.

And then I texted my friend.

You know… Erica.

The one I just ran the marathon with.

 

I came through for her.

And then she came through for me.

Not only did it all work out, but tonight we get to enjoy those beers we were too tired to drink last Sunday after all.

It’s going to be a great Halloween.
