Dang! What a month that was.

Sun Nov 1, 2009, 1:57 PM
Boy! Oh, boy! Was October a busy, crazy month. Multiple birthdays, friends and relatives in from out of town, got sick and I finally got to take a couple of days off. But, dang, am I tired.

Things should be coming back to normal here abouts. I have some catching up to do, a few commissions here and there and a bunch of Iron Man 2 sketch cards to do. Not to mention that Christmas is right around the bend and I have stuff to do for that (presents and what not). Some of it I will be posting up here for you guys to see, some will have to wait until after Christmas to be revealed to the public.

So- how was everyone's Halloween? I had a pretty good time. Mainly watched some horror films and handed out candy to Trick or Treaters. Yup. People still walk from house to house in some neighborhoods around here.

I decided to do my own 31 Days of Halloween movie marathon, since what AMC, TMC and SciFi are doing now suck worse than a vampire in a blood bank. So here is the list of movies I watched this Halloween Season:
1- A Nightmare on Elm Street
2- The Howling
3- Cursed
4- Candyman
5- Deep Rising
6- Night of the Living Dead (Savini's 1990 remake)
7- Dawn of the Dead (Synder's 2004 remake)
8- Thirteen Ghosts (Beck's 2001 remake)
9- Frankenstein 1931 James Whale Classic
10- Prince of Darkness (John Carpenter Goodness)
11- The Fog (John Carpenter Goodness)
12- John Carpenter's the Thing (John Carpenter Goodness)
13- Halloween 1 & 2 (John Carpenter Goodness, I've always counted these as one movie)
14- Halloween III: Season of the Witch
15- Halloween 4: The Return of Michael Myers
16- Blood: the Last Vampire
17- An American Werewolf in London
18- Friday the 13th
19- Swamp Thing
20- The Prophecy
21- Carnival of Souls
22- Captain Kronos: Vampire Hunter (Hammer Ghoulishly Goodness)
23- Frankenstein and the Monster from Hell (Hammer Ghoulishly Goodness)
24- Horror of Dracula (Hammer Ghoulishly Goodness)
25- Dracula Has Risen From the Grave (Hammer Ghoulishly Goodness)
26- Taste the Blood of Dracula (Hammer Ghoulishly Goodness)
27- Dracula AD 1972 (Groovy Hammer Ghoulishly Goodness with swinging tunes from Stoneground, baby. Yeah)
28- The Rites of Dracula (Hammer Ghoulishly Goodness)
29- Horror Hotel
30- Poltergeist
31- Michael Dougterty's Trich 'r Treat (This is being added as one of my new favorites)

And, of course, no Halloween is complete without a viewing of The Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown and a little know treat called Halloween is Grinch Night.

Had bunch of people in town, relatives and what not. Mom's 60th birthday. The fishing trip in the middle of the month. Went to Atlanta for a couple of days to see Tom, Sue and the kids.
And, of course, work. Building a couple of websites, which I don't post up here. You know busy.

But things are slowing down now and I'll start getting things up soon.

Got my Iron Man cards last week. Haven't touched them yet.
Have a couple of commission cards to finish up first.

Matt was here. Not that we saw him that much. He spent a good bit of time with family, trying to patch that whole mess up.
They are hoping to come visit in December if Matt's vacation is approved.
