Well, it's not been the greatest of weeks for the PotatoBlog Halloween Countdown. The weather ruined most of my good ideas for subject matter and school and illness made posting here the least of my worries. I just quit.
But, I won't completely end on a low note and have to write something for the 31st, so we'll see you back here tomorrow. For now... Charlie Brown. The Great Pumpkin.
I have never seen this show. Ever. It is on every single year and I've still not seen it. I even bought it this year and put it on tonight for my nephew and still managed to miss it. I know what it's about vicariously, but have yet to actually sit down and watch it. I'll be honest, it kinda feels like a devout Catholic missing Easter Mass every year for random reasons.
It's almost like waiting for the Great Pumpkin and never seeing it, year after year. For all they know, the Great Pumpkin did show up and they were too busy with other things to see it right behind them. That's "It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown" for me.
Do I want to watch it? Do I need to? At this point, after so many years, it's nearly a tradition for me to miss it. How would it feel? Would it be a real Halloween?
I need to know by tomorrow. There's one day left. What do you think I should do? Watch it, or never watch it?

I vote watch it.
Halloween came and went and I still didn't watch it... There's always next year.
