I AM NOW FULLY COMMITTED TO DOING THE HAUNTED CASTLE FOR SCOUTS

We've been talking about doing it for years. Last year I wrote up my initial idea for it and this year we have now passed the point where we can't back out of it. We have fliers out telling everyone where and when. So come October 17th and 18th, ready or not, we are doing a Spooky Castle for a fund... Sign in to see full entry.

ALREADY TO START WORK ON THE SPOOKY CASTLE

As of last weekend it looks like we are a go with doing a haunted house as a fund raiser for Cub Scouts this year. We've talked about doing it the last few years, but it has always fallen apart. But this year we have two back yards that have been volunteered for this and more or less we have all... Sign in to see full entry.

I HAVE REALLY FALLEN BEHIND IN MY BLOGGING THIS WEEK

Things have been a little crazy here and I've just had a lot to do that is more important to me than blogging, so I have let it all slide for the week. Tomorrow is my day off, so hopefully I'll get a few posts done and reply to some of the comments that have been left for me. Although I hopefully... Sign in to see full entry.

WE ARE ENTERING THE GREATEST SHOPPING SEASON OF THE YEAR

In the next few weeks all the stores will go over to their best holiday sets of the year and I will be enjoying shopping more than ever. Yes, I love Halloween. The costumes, the decorations, the gags, the inspiration in all of it. It really gets me going more than any other season. I will hit ever... Sign in to see full entry.

WORLDCON HAS ENDED

It was a really fun event and I enjoyed it greatly. I hope to figure out how to get to more Worldcons in the future. Next year it is going to be in Montreal and the guest of honor is going to be Neil Gaiman. I would love to be able to make it to that one. Gaiman is my favorite writer. Then in 2010...

WORLDCON IS GOING WELL

Figured I'd stop in and give a few post on Worldocn. This is the end of day number two of it and I have been enjoying myself greatly. There is a lot to do and so I have been keeping busy and the days have been going by too fast. I've gotten a few autographs and met a few people who have inspired me... Sign in to see full entry.

It is where the Hugos are awarded (Kind of like the Oscars of the sci-fi/fantasy writing world) and if you are a member of the... Sign in to see full entry.

NOW IS THE TIME TO FOCUS ON MY GRANDMOTHER

I really find it interesting that after the recent issue here that tried to paint me as some cruel kid who goes off and attacks 'nice little old ladies' I am writing this post. With my grandfather dead as a family we need to be focusing on my grandmother's needs. She and my grandfather were married... Sign in to see full entry.
