Happy Halloween ... I love to hear you scream ...

Scott took the day off to start decorating ... we go a little overboard at Halloween ...

I went to a management seminar at the Space Needle. I ate lunch at the top - if I can figure a way to get the pics from my (new) camera phone onto my computer, I'll post those.

Yes, we're WAAAAAAYYY over the top with the Halloween decorations, most of which are motion-activated and make noise. Pictures will be posted tomorrow night, hopefully.

For now, a pic of Halloween at our house:

BOO!!!!!!!!!

"I would rather talk about ... "

Not exactly a Halloween movie, but it is about ghosts ... I love this scene ...

I love the finger food at the end.

Hey, kids - what's tomorrow???

I put a spell on you ...

... and now you're mine.

Two more days, kids ...

This Is Halloween

Three more days, kids ...

Meet Jack

Jack O'Lantern. He's our latest addition. I went to a "punkin' carvin' party" at my friend R's house yesterday afternoon - he was even nice enough to scoop all the pumpkin guts out for everyone. We all sat around eating and drinking with sharp utensils in our hands. Luckily, there was no blood involved.

After Scott got home from work, we went to a neighbor's house where they had a farewell party for some neighbors who are moving to a new condo downtown. The guys who are moving were in costume for Halloween, probably (hopefully) for the sake of the kids at the party. It's sad that we're losing a gay couple from the block. The neighborhood HAS been going downhill lately.

After that, we moved the party to another neighbor's house, where we sat around talking and drinking some more wine. It wasn't until this morning that I realized I really didn't eat dinner last night. I had a couple of pieces of spanikopita, some crackers and cheese, a few stuffed mushrooms, and some bread. And wine. I feel a little fuzzy today.

And how was YOUR weekend?
