Since today is a "spooky" day...

I love spooky things. One of my favorite holidays is Halloween because of all the ghost stories that start circulating. So going along with Halloween, I do feel a weird little thrill when Friday the 13th pops up. Not that I'm superstitious or anything. Anyhoo - since today is a "spooky day" I decided to do a post with roots (no pun intended) relating back to Halloween.

The week before Halloween, Melissa (also a lover of Halloween and all things spooky) placed a tiny pumpkin on my desk. She had drawn a jack-o-lantern face on said pumpkin with a magic marker.

Halloween came and went and I just couldn't bear to throw the pumpkin away. So, I decided to just leave it on my desk and see how long it took it to completely disintegrate... or whatever the hell it was going to do (implode, maybe?).

Fast forward to today. He's still going strong. Well, strong-ish.

Pumpkin Head says "I'm awesome."
this is the pumpkin's back
Pumpkin Head's better side
I'm just still not ready to let it go... Who knows, maybe Pumpkin Head will be around for this year's Halloween.
