Answer. That. Question!

That haunted house puzzle is the stuff of my kids' nightmares. I haven't been able to talk them into putting it together for YEARS. 

.::cue cheesy game show intro music::.

Thanks for tuning in, folks! Today on Answer. That. Question! Julia wimps out and answers two easy ones:

Our first questions comes from Annie: Where do you get the energy to put up all this decoration? I'm lucky if I will actually think of getting some goodies for halloween!

Ahh. Good question, Annie! I have a GREAT answer! .::audience sign flashes and applause erupts::.
The answer is -- I DIDN'T put them up! I coerced two lovely young ladies not only to go up to my attic and schlep my decor boxes downstairs but also forced them to put together a demonic 3-D puzzle of a haunted house which takes a minimum of one hour to construct; AND to create lovely fall vignettes around my home! With all my stuff! Is that brilliant or what?!
.::Audience ooos and ahhhhhs in appreciative awe::.

Reader Miki makes this astute observation in a reaction to my stifled intention to ram a nice lady and her husband with my scooter, which really isn't a question but deserves a response nonetheless: I can't help thinking that I hope she doesn't read your blog! ;)

O.o  Miki! You're RIGHT! I hope she doesn't TOO!
.::frenzied applause barely heard over the exit music blaring::.

I'm afraid we're out of time, folks! Tune in next time for ANSWER. THAT. QUESTION!
