La la la la la la

What a nice weekend! A party on Friday, the Keene, NH pumpkin festival, another party and Rocky Horror on Saturday and some relaxing around the house followed by a viewing of Nosferatu w/ Reflecting Skin last night. Its always busy around halloween but the activities are always fun! Tonight we'll be going to see the new Vampire Hunter D and doing some food shopping (after of course picking up Praline from the vet - she gets spayed today). Tomorrow I'll be going to a halloween shindig at K's church and then we're finally carving our pumpkins when I get home. And on Wednesday we're going to brave the crowds in Salem and do some walking around/people watching.

Today I mail out my Grad application (that is, if I can find the closest Federal Express Location) - whew!

I'm glad that its finally sweater weather - its my most favorite time of year. Before you know it we'll be turning on our heat, watching the Macy's Thanksgiving Day parade and then shopping for a Christmas tree. I want to find a place to go Christmas Caroling this year :)

Does anyone know where I can buy an electric fireplace? I'm seriously jonesing for one! I've found the ones complete with Mantle that use special 'RealFlame' candles but they cost a lot of money (and I'd rather save that $ to put toward a house or for a fireplace in said house later on).

I've already turned the heat on. This may be evidence that I'm only an adopted New Englander, born in the south. Or possibly it reflects the fact that we're located at the crest of a windy hill, and this past spring my landlords cut down the big tree which provided wind-block in winter and sun-shade in summer. Or possibly that if this house was ever insulated, it fell out of the walls into the basement many decades ago.

My landlords are nice people, but some people really shouldn't own homes. At least they share the high heating bill *grin*

I'm afraid electric fireplaces scare me, so I can't help there... Good luck!

You can get a portable fireplace for $400 at http://www.spiegel.com/ You just have to search for fireplace. Lots of cool stuff.

And I am like you. I can't wait to get all bundled up and get a Christmas tree. I've never been our carolling before, but I sing anywhere I go, so that sounds fun. I've actually been so excited about being east for Christmas that I've been playing carols on my piano for the last few weeks. :)

halloweekend!

a viewing of Nosferatu w/ Reflecting Skin

I went on Saturday night, and I must say, it was wonderful! I'm so upset that I can't go to the CD Release Party at TT's on the 16th. :-(
