[personal profile] mollyamory is having some kind of moth-related nervous breakdown in anticipation of a repeat of last night, I assume. She is currently trying to convince me to leave the hall light on, in the hopes the moth will seek out brighter grounds.

In other news, my jellyfish has still not arrived. Only Kickstarter I have ever gone in on, and it's... well, ridiculously frivolous and pointless, okay, yes. But I want that jellyfish here in time for Halloween, so we can add it to the decorations [personal profile] mollyamory created for the house last year. And we should have plenty of time, but my batch had an estimated delivery of August, and we are well and truly past the end of August, so hopefully, they aren't encountering difficulties.

How else can we dress this place up this year? This summer I met a neighbor kid who lived two blocks down, and he demanded to know where I lived. When I described our house, he knew it instantly, and described our decorations. I am extraordinarily pleased that they made enough of an impact that the roaming bands of hooligan actually remember them over six months later.

Also, I am well and truly ready for the time of year when pumpkin gets added to everything edible.

So tired! But worth it!

Went out at the beginning of the weekend, bought lots of stuff! Primer, paint, brushes, rollers, construction board, tissue paper, tape....

Made a boatload of bacon! Called up [personal profile] arduinna. "So," I said casually. "Just made all this bacon. Can't eat it all myself. Waaaay too much bacon for one person..."

So once I had her trapped, we started painting the living hell out of my bedroom, with some assistance from [personal profile] mollyamory. When [personal profile] mollyamory's bad ankle started to give out, we set her up downstairs with the construction board and a promise of ice cream, and an old post from reddit showing some kick ass halloween decorations, and instructions to monster the hell out of the house.

I can't show decent pics of how well my room turned out (PURPLE! Okay, well, a nice pale lilac, anyway, three walls down, one for the future) due to my working poor [personal profile] arduinna to the bone, but I can show pics of the monsters, and take credit for them, having supplied the raw materials and the ice cream to [personal profile] mollyamory.

Images of the house all monstered up! )

ETA: I have also supplied her with three pumpkins of VARIOUS SIZES. I expect I will be required to supply more ice cream as well.
