La! Well, that was more fun than being attacked by a swarm of roboinsectobots, even if they were wearing hats. I've just got back from three days in Haye-on-Wye, and yes, Snithy, it does exist although it turns out I was wrong about the houses being built from books and eating books and the people in fact being talking books with legs, but none-the-less, it was booktastic and now I have absolutely no money for the rest of the month. But I do have several beautiful illustrated books on fairytales and, for reasons that shall go unexplained, two plant holders, a Scooby Doo board game and a bag of paper mache skulls. Which proves that even in a town made entirely from books, I will find a way to spend my money on crap. And blame it on Miriglum, who blatently encouraged me.

In other news, I am now seeking to unravel one of the greatest mysteries of the world. No, not "Can homies and lumberjacks ever be friends?", nor even "What good are shoes without cute animals on them?". Nay, I fear the question I seek to answer is even greater that these. Namely:

Is the Nightmare Before Christmas a Halloween film or a Christmas film?


Wish me luck, friends, for no doubt my quest for the ultimate knowledge will be fraught with peril and danger and monkeys at every turn. In the meantime, I have to go peel the "Made on China" stickers off a bunch of skulls, so farewell!

Well I don't know what the true answer is, but I do know that I tend to watch it on both holidays... ^^

The Nightmare before Christmas is traditionally assoiciated with the holiday of Christ-o-ween (sounds far better than Halloweenmas). Obviously.

Actually, now that I think about it, with the blatent and annoying pre-empting of holiday events by stores, trying to foist seasonal crap on us eight months before the grand event, its only a matter of time until holidays are just rolled togeather into huge, homogenous seasonal buying-a-ganzas.

It is the very best - BOTH! Which means we can watch it from early November until Christmas, like, EVERY DAY! HOORAY!
