• Early in the day I read Mike’s blog about how he was planning on giving Halloween candy out today.  So, I decided to test out that theory and surprise him.

  
  

  I got the ball rolling for people to dress up at work for the day, and I thought it would be a darn shame to let Mike miss seeing me in all my regalia! 

  
  

  So, late in the day I called him to see how he was doing … and he also informed me that he had gotten his glasses … which was perfect for that way I knew he would surely be home if I went to surprise him.

  
  

  Straight out of work I headed towards his place on the streets for most of the way since I figured the freeways would be crowded, and luckily I got on the 110 at a point where the traffic went smoothly with hardly any stop and go.  I got to his place around the time I had estimated, which was good enough to stay and chat a while before he retired for the night … since we both do have to work the next day.

  
  

  I knocked on the door and his roommate got up to open up.

  
  

  “I’m here to do a little trick or treating!”, I said with a smile.  He told me that my costume was great.  I told him that I hadn’t told Mike I was coming over and it was a surprise.  So, I went to Mike’s computer room and knocked … and I opened the door to surprise him.  Though, he kind figured (or as his roommate said, “hoped” … lol) it was me.  And it was.

  
  

  Mike was gracious enough to sit and talk with me for the time I was there, and I even got a 100 Grand out of it.  Sure enough he had bought the candy!  Not that I doubted him, but he had the GOOD stuff.  (Hint: next time get Baby Ruth)

  
  

  I enjoyed being there with Mike and his roommate talking for a time, and have to admit that it is nice to just relax and chat after a day of work.  It was a surprise for Mike, and a nice way to end the evening for me. 

  
  

  Hopefully I will do better at surprising him next time … *insert evil & sexy laugh here*
