I spent most of Saturday getting my apartment ready for visitors, and, of course, Saturday was a gorgeous day–possibly the first sunny, nice day this entire month. So I spent most of Saturday cleaning and cursing myself for picking the wrong day for the party, because the forecasts for Sunday all of a sudden were rather unpleasant. I envisioned people walking in a pumpkin patch with mud up to their ankles and then walking into my freshly cleaned home and practically wailed in despair.
Luckily for me, Sunday was gorgeous, too.
Carrie, Anne, jimhark, and amazoni met me at the pumpkin patch–conceptcanibal, Dick, and Kayleigh were coming over later with pumpkins they’d already bought.
Here, Jim shows off the shirt that has been his favorite for years and years he’s more than happy to ruin with pumpkin guts. Oh Windows ME, most hated of operating systems!
Eventually, Carrie was talked into the wheelbarrow, which encouraged the rest of us to give it a shot. Unfortunately, when Jim gave Carrie a ride, it was all fun and games. When I hopped up into the wheelbarrow, it turned into a dangerous thrill ride from hell. Jim seemed fairly interested in murdering me in a pumpkin patch, in very short order.
And then he tried to kill me, with Anne. I had my camera zoomed in to take a picture, and he started running directly at me…but with the zoom, it looked like he was much closer than he actually was, so I shrieked and jumped into the pumpkins–only to discover that they were still a good distance away. Smarts, I am filled with them.
OH, REVENGE IS SWEET.
From these sweetly smiling faces, you’d never think that we were the sort of people who would try to murder one another via wheelbarrow, and mostly, that’s true–we generally try to use whatever is handy, and wheelbarrows aren’t around all that often.
This pumpkin…reminds me of someone. Ah, yes, now I remember! It reminds me of Chyna. Namely, Chyna’s clenis. Please, for the love of Cthulhu, do not google that at work. Or at all. It’s pretty gross. Anyway, EVERYONE in the pumpkin patch got to hear the fact that I thought this pumpkin had a clitoris, as I screamed it across the way to Jim, who I knew would come and check it out. I wasn’t wrong. He thought I should buy it, but I felt that it belongs to the ages.
And here’s what we all came up with:
Anne made a Frankenpumpkin!
amazoni made a night sky pumpkin!
jimhark made an emoticon pumpkin. Nerd. 😉
conceptcanibal made a grim reaper, Dickzilla made an angry face, and Kayleigh did a night scene with spooky figures, bats, and the moon. The reason everyone looks so hot and tired is that my apartment heated up to practically 1000 degrees from everyone’s exertions and combined body heat. Having the dog running around like a whirling dervish among pumpkin guts and knives didn’t help things, either.
Here’s my pumpkin! I’m quite fond of the drag-queen eyebrows.
You kids who didn’t show up, you missed out on some good times; you’ll just have to look forward to Carve O Thon 2008!
Sure, everyone hates Me, but everyone’s gonna hate Vista double.
I brought up that point, and Jim’s claim is that the book isn’t closed on Vista yet.
The girl on the right in the second-to-last photo has a state tattoo. Hot dayamn!
That she does! She’s also a suicide girl. 🙂
Is she one of the smart ones? Those exist, right? I’ve heard otherwise. I’m assuming if she’s your friend she’s one of the smart ones.
(And there i was, restraining myself from the creepy “damn she’s fine” comment, and she’s a suicide girl, and would thus be totally used to far worse skeeve than Milwaukee Drummer w/Wisconsin Tattoo leering at her over the internet while she’s clothed, for frack’s sake. Gimme a break, i’m nearly unemployed!)
Smart suicide girls do exist, and she is counted among their number. She’d be completely unperturbed by Awesome Milwaukee Drummer With Wisconsin Tattoo (see, I fixed it) admiring her from afar. 🙂
I googled “chyna clenis”
aaaaaand you are the very. first. link.
congratulations.
OH YAY FOR ME. Soon my blog is going to be the first link offered for every horrifying search term.
How dare you slight poor ME-tan??
I suggest you direct all sad-faced anime girls at.
No SID tunes on that list. 🙁
