Those who know me know I love to decorate for Halloween. It's not an idle interest. No, friends, it's a serious, serious thing.

So it's really painful to go to stores and see really nifty new decorations for sale and not have the money to buy them. It's agony. That fog machine I saw today would be the perfect thing to really bring all the decorations together, but, alas, it will have to fog someone else's yard and/or house. Someone with money.

I know, of course, there's a war going on in Iraq and people are starving and homeless all over the world, and I don't really need  these things. That's not the point. The point is I'm weak, and I love to decorate for Halloween. And there's cool stuff out there which I don't have. Oh, sure, I already have plenty of cool stuff, but I want more, darn it! More! More!!! Is that so WRONG?!?!

Um. Uh, sorry about the outburst. It won't happen again. Maybe. You never know.

Did I mention I really like to decorate for Halloween?

Did I also mention I need serious help, in the mental sense?
