Halloween approacheth-eth. Eth… eth<\/i>. Hmm, a bit tricky on the tongue there. Doesn’t ring right.<\/p>\n

Halloween’s a-coming, and we still have a dire need to decorate for the up-and-coming party \u2014 owing to the fact that we’re still moving the last of our shit into the new house, and I took on a handful of last-minute projects that are crashing to a completion.<\/p>\n

Lady and I have invited a number of folks to come over this Saturday evening (October 25th) to lend a hand decorating, and this is the official invite to everyone we have\/have not asked to come. We’re looking to have folks over at about 7:00pm or 8:00pm. Just let me know via comment or phone call. And yes Pounders, you and your dike-y short hair can come and play on Pac-Man and the Nintendo PlayChoice… Raul too if he likes \u2014 hell, everyone is welcome to play. I just need to vacuum the dust off of them.<\/p>\n

** ADDENDUM START **<\/b><\/p>\n

First, the official title of this little gathering is the "Holy Shit, We’ve Been Too Busy To Decorate<\/b>" party. There, happy now Mensa?<\/p>\n

Second, if those of you who are coming to decorate can afford to bring a bag of chips, pack of drinks (soft-drinks or beer) or something to add to the communal sip\/snack pile, we would greatly appreciate it. We have some chips, drinks and beer, but I’d like to be sure everyone has enough to keep them satisfied. Thank you. Message ends.<\/p>\n

** ADDENDUM END **<\/b><\/p>\n

We can also make this our official annual Nightmare Before Christmas<\/b> screening as well, which will be followed up by as many horror\/horrible movies as we have in our movie collection (Bad Taste<\/a><\/b> anyone?). Snap, chances are we might still be there when you get off \u2014 call and see.<\/p>\n

A great big "Holy shit! This is pretty damned cool \u2014 thank you guys so very much!<\/i>" goes out to Steve and Harold for the Halloween\/housewarming present they care-packaged to us from sunny, sunny California. I guess their overwhelming guilt at not being able to attend our Halloween party \u2014 again \u2014 grabbed hold of them. It’s a fantastically gi-normous haunted house with groovy flashing lights and a spooky witch that spins around the tower. Once again, thanks a heap guys, and we’ll be calling y’all tonight to thank you in a non-virtual manner. I bet everyone can guess what our party centerpiece is going to be this year.<\/p>\n

Side note:<\/b> Saturday or Sunday we transport our computers to the new house and will be without internet communications until Thursday, October 30th. While Lady and I can certainly keep up with all our daily nonsense from work, it will definitely only be from work. Expect us to be a little scarce in the digital realm until Thursday.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
