Happy Halloween

At the dairy this morning, I remembered that November 1st is a big deal in Mexico - The Day of the Dead. So what I meant to say to Jose was "Mañana es Día de los muertos." Instead I said "Mañana es el día de muertos" which translates to "Tomorrow is the day you are dead." He looked a little startled. Realizing I had flubbed something, I hastily said, "No, no - Mañana es el día estoy muerto" which loosely means "Tomorrow is the day I die." He just started laughing at me. But isn't that what Halloween is all about - having a good laugh? Glad I could provide one to Jose - and maybe you too!
