This evening is like a metaphor for capitalism.

I bought some nice things for myself tonight, but it's kind of a sad holiday, anyway. One girl came by to trick or treat. We had no visitors last year. This complex doesn't seem to appeal to trick-or-treaters, or maybe nowadays people do more trunk or treating. No one wanted any of the candy I bought last year so we didn't buy any this year. But I saw a child and a mom, who was dressed as a black cat, and when I came home, I heard they had come by, but we didn't have anything to give her. And we felt regret about that. And another thing...there was a dead black and white kitten on the side of the road, and I hope they don't see that tonight. So it's kind of a sad holiday! I'll just have to be extra nice to my mostly black but also a little bit white cat tonight. And try not to think gloomy thoughts about  inequity with regards to society, it's tolerance for violence, the state of health care in this country, and etc. I have nice food, and a new special cream lotion product for my skin, and can cheer myself up, right?
