“What are you doing for Halloween?” Week

So this is it, where I ask the big question – how are you celebrating Halloween?

Do you even celebrate Halloween? If so, how and also WHY? What does it mean to you?

For myself, I am celebrating it by going home from college and camping out outside, dressed up, scaring trick-or-treaters at my house. It’s something I’ve done for around 8 years now, and everyone seems to love it. I try to do something different every year, and I’ve been collecting decorations and things that I can hang. This year, I’ve got a bloody scarecrow up with lights around him, some cobwebs in a window, a bloody “Help me!” sign, and caution tape and lights strung around trees, plus tons of inside stuff. Still more I want to do as well!

Also, I’ve been trying to do as much Halloween stuff as possible. Watching horror movies and haunted television shows, decorating, baking Halloween snacks, and going to pumpkin patches and haunted houses have been on my schedule.

What about you?

What have you been listening to recently? Week

Dude, she's listening avidly - are you?

If you visit this site, I demand! (okay, so maybe I’m just asking nicely) to post what you’re listening to lately. This week is the first in my weekly installments of trying to get an active blogger-reader participation on this blog.

So – all’s you have to do is post what you’re listening to for this week – it can be anything! You can also leave last.fm usernames if you want to become friends, and I’ll give you mine. It’s ryneb, and you can access it at http://last.fm/user/ryneb. Simple.

Oh and just remember – I can see if you came here and didn’t post anything, so I’ll track you down. Or maybe I’ll just sit and listen by myself. See if I care.
