This week I’m starting a new phase of my medical journey, involving looooooong intake appointments, so I’m afraid I’ll have to give you a “wordless” DG post today!

Awful Library Books dug up a real gem here:
“Photographs and text celebrate the joyous communication that can exist between humans and their feline companions as they engage in movement and dance together.”

Damn, right in the eye…
Sarcastic ghost is like “Boo…or whatever.”
Watched Poltergeist II the other day (great movie, but the first was awesome), and happened to pause for a break on this comical frame:
Oh, hell yes, haunted kitsch sweater!
Amazing pancakes (check out the one on the lower left…wow!):

The inclusion of something that has eyes does NOT an eyeball make:
Oh, you think your pumpkin is scary? THIS is how they did it in early 20th Century Ireland.
Ah, the 80’s…when movies had their own cheese-tastic rap theme songs. Take Monster Squad for example. What’s your favorite 80’s horror movie?
HAPPY HALLOWEEN!

Due to illness, it’s been well over a year since I’ve done any kind of crafty project. I miss crafting every single day! Although I’m not actually able to leave the house this Halloween, that’s no excuse not to try to make my own fun here!
My lovely cousin Alaine and I had a mini craft party so I could make an idea I had been pondering this past week: ATTACK OF THE KILLER TOMATOES SHIRT!
If you are not familiar with this fine film, it is a must-see for any B-movie fan.
So here’s my shirt. I could see people perusing the booths of horror conventions wearing a fine killer tomato face.
Here it is, stuffed with a pillow, looking all round and evil (I’m way too skinny to give it its rightful shape).
I found a random bottle of green hairspray in the house (jackpot, right?) so I thought I’d make my hair into tomato “vines.” This was a marvelous failure. I couldn’t get much color to actually come out of the bottle, so I ended up with splotchy green patches here and there, and a whole lot of compressed air shooting in my face.
Now look at the camera and say FAIL!
I also made a valiant, though completely unsuccessful, effort with the bathroom mirror to get a picture that showed me with the entire T-shirt. I couldn’t use flash due to the reflection, and without flash I couldn’t stay still enough to get a shot that wasn’t blurry enough to be considered bad conceptual art.
Oh well.
As you may remember from Rabid Mouse Attack, I really enjoy making cheap, cheesy horror costumes. Are you dressing up this year? Did you make a costume?

Go ahead, get it out…“Chocolate what-the-WHAT now?”
Mayonnaise. In cake. Believe it.
This cake is perfect for Halloween because it’s a trick AND a treat. Apparently, this recipe has been around for a long time but I just discovered it (asking my aunt, a fabulous cook, to make one the other day).
Recipes before the internet!
And a modern one:
You will not taste the mayo. I repeat…you will not.
I ate half of the cake in one day, and I REGRET NOTHING! Mine was a gluten free, vegan version found here (because it’s easier on my currently fragile digestion), but there are lots to choose from.
And now…
Bonus CAKE WRECKS!
When I’m hungry…
Genius.
These costumes aren’t scary…

J.W. Ocker put together an awesome series of photos with some undead pals (this is totally something I would do).

Sometimes, being dead can make it a little tougher to meet a fine mate. Well, Ghost Singles is here to solve that problem!
You can even search by type of death (horribly, mysteriously, tragically, suddenly).

My October tradition involves digging up all manner of nostalgic and/or spooky cartoons, TV shows, movies, etc. (from silent era to present) and watching these goodies every day of the month.
Today I give you a random treat bag of 80’s Halloween sitcom full episodes (Note: I have not watched them all yet, so I cannot say with conviction whether they are “totally tubular” or “grody to the max.”)
You Can’t Do That on Television
The Facts of Life
Mr. Belvedere
Charles in Charge
Newhart
The Cosby Show
Pee Wee Herman on Letterman, 1983
Pee Wee Herman on Letterman, 1984
And here’s a playlist of Roseanne Halloween episodes!
Anyone have links to others?

Now, this had to have started as a joke; overinflated egos toying with masses for fun. I could launch into a massive sociological tirade, but lucky for the folks at A.P.C. and the rash of gullible humans who forked over $120 for this thing…my typing abilities are currently restricted.
I don’t know what’s more discouraging: the fact that this shirt took a COLLABORATION to design (as if it were groundbreaking and not the most common, standard piece of clothing ever sold on this planet, and for under 10 bucks)…or the fact that it actually sold out.
