It has been a day chock full of busy at the end of a crazy week, so this will be short. Here's Harry Potter with Mad-Eye Moody. Mad-Eye, you'll observe, is drinking out of his hip flask. Note also the block rubber-banded to his shoe (for the dull clunking with every other step) and the Sculpey claws extending from the wooden leg. We just read HP4 together -- can you tell?
Here's Sir Petely before the preschool Halloween parade. I didn't get a picture of Alex in costume (he went trick-or-treating with a friend (and the friend's mom)), but he wore the same costume as last year.
All right, I told my husband I was staying up to work. I'd better get cracking, because "falling back" is a different experience when you have kids. (To wit: the kids wake up according to their body clocks, an hour earlier than you think they ought to by the wall clock. You, having stayed up to make the most of your "extra hour," will be tired and cranky all day. Unless, in your eleventh year of motherhood, you wise up and go to bed on DST. We shall see if I can be disciplined enough to do so.)
About DST: Word. I am kicking myself because I forgot to change the girls' clock before they went to bed...I cringe when I think of what awful hour they will be jumping in our bed tomorrow morning.
But here I sit, checking out my Bloglines. I'm a glutton for punishment.... ;)

Great costumes! You pretty much summed up our time change experience.
