Is it really that time? Fall items are starting to show up at Dollar Tree, eclipsing the back-to-school stuff. And an endcap of Halloween items is at Goodwill. In about a month, one can expect to see the costumes rack at GW, with medical scrubs, scouting uniforms, odd striped dresses, and other things the workers think can become a costume, mixed in with incomplete used store-bought costumes. And the last few days I have been exploring sites that sell costumes, though this year looks to be a repeat of last year. It seems like the bar celebrations will be out again this year. And I don't know about costumes this year. And I won't get started on Thanksgiving and Christmas just yet, though these have not been big holidays for me in the last few years. And same for New Year's Day.
Next week I have to start watching out for the "smartphone zombies" waking to and from school. It has been so weird not seeing them for over a year now.

Smartphone zombies is a perfect description - though it isn't limited to those of school age.
Yay! My favorite time of year!
Not sure the smartphone zombies are limited to school ages but they are definitely worth watching out for. No trick-or-treating expected again this year according to the latest statistics. Mailed boxes for Christmas, for sure. Yup, time flies even when we're standing still.
