WOW! Halloween House!

[learnteach]

Went and was a priest at a "haunted house" (actually, all around a house) last night. Tonight is tear down. Wow! HAD A BLAST! It was solid fun for about 3 hours! I don't know what was funnier, scaring people who were trying to be cool, or scaring the ones who were laughing and screaming already. I wasn't one of the "scarers", I was there to set them up for the best figure, Havc of Haven in the best bony costume ever seen. He has horns for his head made out of two cornucopicas wired together and painted white--it's an easy demonic hennin! And fingers made out of PVC pipe that he taped on, made his hands huge and bony. I'll try to score a picture.

Next year I want to make a bunch of Giant Carniverous Plants and a Carniverous Swamp thing costume. What a use for hummus!

My house is a motivation sink right now. I'm going to go buy a sixpack (diet coke probably) and work it on the sixpack theory: Open a brew, start a project, finish the project, finish the brew. But just wandering around is incredibly disheartening as far as getting things done is, as there's too much.

Have not signed up for NaNoMo. Must strengthen resolve and do it, or not.

Life is very good! Made it to the gym this morning. Onward!

you call, we project

Give us a call if you need any help with projects. It's a great excuse to upgrade power tools..... and Jane is the goddess of painting.

Sorry we missed haunted house; Teddy was vibrating at some insanely high frequency after trick or treating. We just didn't have enough shielding to risk it :-)

Haunted House _might_ have been too scary for him. Probably not, but...
Almost all of the house projects are sort/clean/paint thangs.
