i know, it's still september.

I was browsing through some old photos recently on my laptop. I had almost forgotten that last Halloween, I had taken some fun "Halloweenie" pictures of things around the house with my old point and shoot.





There's more than these... but I had a lot of fun taking them. I think I'll do something similar this year. Halloween is one of my favorite holidays, I think because of the darkness and spookiness of it all... :)

This year to celebrate Halloween we are going to Universal Studios Halloween Horror Nights next weekend. I am SO excited to be able to participate in a festivity that isn't a skanky costume party. I've wanted to attend this for a while, and I can't wait to have the crap scared out of me. We are going with a group of about 10 people as well, so we'll have 10 times as much fun.

Matt and I are making Halloween-related mix CD's for the drive down. I have a lot of great music, so much I may have to make two CD's! I'll post the tracklistings here when I'm done. They will be less Monster Mash, and more Rob Zombie. :)

always a classic combo.

I took this in the driveway on a warm summer night while Matt was in the garage using my car to jumpstart his, along with other assorted car in distress etcetera. I was sitting, reading, drinking, and providing general good morale.

Can't quite remember the name of the wine. I want to say this was a Trapiche chardonnay.

The book, however, was called The Passage by Justin Cronin. Highly recommended if you're into sci-fi post apocalyptic stuff. :)
