BOO.

Happy Halloween.

And Happy Mew Year to to those of you who reside in Tonga. And are cats.

I know what you’re thinking…Halloween was yesterday. Well, I slept through the entire day thanks to the Ambien and all those wine coolers. So I’m celebrating today.

I went for the minimalist pumpkin look this year, it’s a “must have” according to the latest issue of Czech Republic Elle Decor. The mustache is something I found while foraging for mushrooms behind the dumpster at Whole Foods. No worries though, I sanitized it with a dash of champagne vinegar, chives, Italian olive oil, sea salt and Dijon mustard. Martha Stewart recommends it in her new book “Living. With Bugs “ Hmm, sounds like a recipe for a delicious vinaigrette to me. Either way, the parasites are gone…

So, if you have a few minutes to spare between cleaning out the glove compartment of your ’87 Civic and perusing the back of the Village Voice for one night stands, head on over to Apartment Therapy to see where I live (um, no, not in a cave) and actually write this crap.

I do believe the fine people at Apartment Therapy Photoshopped out the blood splattered walls, my underwear hanging from the eaves and my husband’s My Little Pony bow-tie collection. They may have even Photoshopped in a cute furry dog, a children’s bedroom (Ugh. Kids?) and clean sheets on my bed…

Thank you Apartment Therapy.

    Love the pumpkin, love the article on the apartment. Tried the de-bugging solution, not so great as a vinaigrette, but worked fabulous for delousing the little scamps around the neighborhood.

    Miss you loads. xoxo

      I’m just going to assume you have a giant bushy ‘stache that needs cleaning.

      Try Martha’s recipe above.

    funny. I totally thought I saw a My Little Pony bow tie sticking out from underneath one of the cushions on page 6.

    Do you really have a hump on your back? And can pumpkins really grow moustaches?

    I need to borrow that ‘stash because I want to dress up as Freddie Mercury in I want to break free next Halloween!

      Yes, you were here! But remember what a pigsty it was? Dog fur, cat hair, crusts of old ham sandwiches lying around in the potted marijuana plants?

      You can come back and visit anytime.
