Halloween is almost here!  The weather has turned cold and it’s been raining for the past few days.  It’s totally possible that it could be storming on Halloween night.  This is my favorite time of year!

I can’t believe that our annual Horrorthon is almost over.  I’m very proud of everyone who contributed this year!  This has been our biggest horrorthon ever!  Of course, I’m also looking forward to getting a little rest in November.

Here’s what I watched, read, and listened to this week!
