Creepy-crawlies.

Halloween is almost here!

Do you know what that means?

1) Halloween party Friday
2) Candy, candy and more candy!
3) Those black and white old scary movie specials on TCM that play super legit old horror movies, like The Haunting.  I swear, black and white scary movies are the BEST.  They're SO much scarier than color movies.
4) That time of year when the air starts getting really crisp and the sky is so blue it looks like it's been freshly washed and hung out to dry.
5) Once again.  CANDY!
6) Dressing up and getting super creative with costumes.  Contrary to Mean Girls, Halloween is NOT just an occasion to run around in lingerie and pretend you're an animal ("I'm a MOUSE.  Duh.")  I love really exotic costumes that aren't TOO skanky =P  I've always been enamored with Cleopatra, medieval princesses and (now) genies.  As it turns out, dressing up as a genie is fairly easy, and it's pretty hot as well.  Just saying.
7) For me, fall's not officially here until it's Halloween.  There's a good part to every season, and I love scarves and crunchy leaves and cuddling under blankets and drinking hot chocolate and watching rain pelt at the windows while you're snug in your bed.
8) When Halloween is over, particularly crazy department stores will start breaking out the wreaths and the Santas and the elves and the holiday sales.  Which, in my opinion, is absolutely ridiculous.  Christmas isn't until  a little less than 2 months away.  But that doesn't mean I don't love it =D
