It's already set up for maximum spookiness!!!<br /><br />I'm simultaneously happy for you and Bean...and incredibly jealous. We're moving too, but it's been delayed due to all sorts of logistical issues. All of our stuff is in storage, and it doesn't look like the move itself will happen until mid-November!! It will be an extremely minimalist haunting for me this year!!! Arrrgh!<br /><br />On the plus side...2012's haunt will be quite fantastic!The Gill-Manhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07680794257168881000noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-784285653010648547.post-26970129925941845182011-06-26T21:45:36.412-04:002011-06-26T21:45:36.412-04:00you are a ''rot star''!you are a ''rot star''!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-784285653010648547.post-84975239622040720652011-06-24T06:22:33.037-04:002011-06-24T06:22:33.037-04:00THANK YOU for putting up more of these!
