Dead-ication

I just ordered a storage shed just for my Hallowe'en stuff. I figured that it could be paid off in about 3 years and I would own it rather than paying rent on a storage building and having nothing to show for it and would have everything close by. It would be dead-icated to Hallowe'en stuff!

Get it? HA HA HA HA HA HA HA!!!!! Dead-icated...dead, as in Hallowe'en humor? Ha ha ha ha ha!
Ha ha ha...

Ha.
...?
Ha?

Hmmmph! Tough audience!

Birthday was a B%#*$%@. I worked my rear end off and had to remind SOMEONE in the household that will remain nameless that my birthday was that day. But we won't point fingers or call names. Anyhow, here's what I spent my saved money on:

2.5 gallons of Froggy's Fog Fluid, the low-lying kind
2 sets of wireless speakers (was only going to get one set but then realized that I could spread them out in the graveyard for background music)
5 mini servos for a talking skull I'm working on
1 pound of orange glitter
2 spotlights

The rest paid off my Lowe's card, which sucked since I hate paying bills.

My mom and dad bought me back 2 VERY cool glazed pottery jack-o-lanterns from Tennessee yesterday from their vacation. I think that I saw these somewhere in Mexico while I was there but didn't have any room to cram them into the suitcase. This surprised me since they generally don't approve of my Hallowe'en fascination.



It's sort of a Day of the Dead meets American Hallowe'en. Love them!

I hear ya, my birthdays seem to just be another day anymore. Congrats on the shed.

1 pound of orange glitter??? I'm dying to know? Are you making a jumpsuit? ;)

Love the jack-o-lanterns! And I, too, am just a little bit curious about the orange glitter :)
