A Month of Giveaway Awesomeness!

JUST BECAUSE IT'S OCTOBER

Bookmom Musings wants to do a give away because her birthday is in October. In the tradition of the world's favorite people, Hobbits, she has decided to give away gifts to celebrate her birthday and reaching the magical number of 100 followers. I've been persuaded to join her.

October is my favorite month. I love watching movies about witches, ghosts, ghoulies and...

VAMPIRES.

I'm looking forward to a month of scary stories. Last year TV was disappointing, but I have a plan for this year. The Library. Bua ha ha.

To quote Bookmom Musings, "Post a comment--any comment--on any of the posts for the week (except this one), and you are entered to win the giveaway(s) of the week. Now, if you want to blog about my giveaways, become a follower (and I hope you do), tweet about my blog, or put up a billboard, that's great!"

And if that wasn't awesome enough (which it is), go visit Bookmom Musings who is doing some giveaways, too. So you can mosey over to her blog and get double the chances to win something in the... drum roll and reverberating echoey movie announcer voice...

Month of Giveaway Awesomeness!!!

What's worse than too much candy?

HALLOWEEN AFTERMATH

Part of my celebration of Halloween has always been a movie-thon--watching as many Halloween movies as I can for the week before the holiday is over. I wanted movies about vampires, but I wanted REAL vampires. Nothing sparkly! I wanted blood and chills!

I also wanted movies about witches, and ghosts.

I didn't want any slasher movies because they're on all the time.

I couldn't find anything I was looking for, so I ended up watching every Casper movie that was scheduled (not quite the kind of ghost I had in mind, but oh well), a few R. L. Stine Goosebumps (instead of chills), and several other Disney movies.
Unfortunately, watching movies on the Disney Channel all week had an unexpected side effect. During the commercial breaks there were sometimes music videos by the stars of the Disney shows.

And Horror of Horrors... I discovered I like HANNAH MONTANA.

NOOOOOOOO

YESSSSSSSS

Something must be wrong with me. I'm big into heavy music. I swear. It had to be too many rated G movies, or something.

I know... I've come down with H1M1. (note the M.)

If I end up with Hannah Montana products in my car and on my desk,

I'm going to need an intervention.

Halloween pictures

I looked around for cool Halloween Pictures. Some I've already posted.
These are my picks for the most disturbing.
Blood doesn't freak me out as much as really scary guys.

MY SECRET INDULGENCE

Yep. Have to admit it.

I really like the first 30 minutes of The Rocky Horror Picture Show. I get the biggest kick out of Tim Curry.


He ranks right up there with Christopher Lee in having awesome singing chops. We don't hear very much of either, but they both have it in spades.
