We musn’t wake He Who Walks Behind the Rows…

A blast from the past – Ripley & I have been doing this pumpkin carving thing for quite a while now.

Carrie Johnson, lovely wife of Rotting Flesh Radio‘s Jonathon, has launched a line of super-awesome hand-made products, including hand-knit pumpkin caps (pictured below). The photo is kind of washed out, but you can see the little green stem on the top of mine (Ripley’s isn’t visible in this shot, but it’s adorable).

You can order your own at http://www.thelittlepumpkinpatch.com/

Special thanks to Jonathan for getting me these awesome Mickey Mouse ears from Disneyworld!

Yep. Guitars.

I walk into my office today and this is on my laptop:

Which doesn’t mean much to anybody but us, until you watch this:

“What’s the point of being cool if you can’t even wear a sombrero?”

Woke up, came downstairs, went into my office and this awesome t-shirt was hanging on the back of my chair. Thanks, honey bunny!

Miss Ripley models her new witchy hat at Target, where we just made our annual Halloween purchase. How much did we spend? Let’s just say I’m glad I sold a painting this week. It was a Halloween-themed painting, so I’m looking at it like an even trade.

I was playing different versions of “You Can’t Reason With a Headless Man” for Ripley (the song from Disney’s “The Legend of Sleepy Hollow”). She liked Bing Crosby’s version, she didn’t seem to care for Thurl Ravencroft’s, and particularly liked Kay Starr’s rendition.

Then Jerry Vayne’s rocking rendition came on and Miss Ripley sat bolt upright and exclaimed “OH MY GOD I LOVE THIS ONE!”

So there you have it.

The mob has assembled. Now I just have to find a place for everybody to sit…
