Wondrous of all Halloween wonders. Disney has decided to release Tim Burton's beloved The Nightmare Before Christmas in theaters this Halloween. Only, the glorious thing is, it's going to be in 3D!!!
Now, I'm assuming this is going to be the modern "full color" 3D. This excites me to no end. There are but a few things in this world that bring up an inner childlike joy for me. They are as follows:
1. Halloween
2. Puppies
3. The Nightmare Before Christmas 3D Theatrical Rerelease
Read a review of the movie here.

happy halloween, or something
My girlfriend and I went to an amazing Amish restaurant this weekend. We had to wait nearly an hour to get in, but it was well worth the wait.
Outside, in the "front yard" (the restaurant was made to look like a house), a man was making Sorghum. Another two women were making apple butter over an open fire. They would pour the apple butter from buckets into jars in order to sell it. I bought some barbeque sauce made with sorghum.
The food in the restaurant was good. The style was very quaint, and it was a bit like travelling back in time to the 1800's.
Afterwards we went to a "haunted" corn maze a few miles down the road. It was intense, bizarre, and somewhat fun. There was a short hayride to the entrance to the "haunted barn." We then went through the barn, corn maze, and then a weird "3-d" maze. There was a tractor transport from the corn maze to the 3-d maze, in which my girlfriend and I had the pleasure of being uncomfortably close to some local drunk teenagers. (or maybe they were in their early 20's.)
Yesterday I watched "Ernest Scared Stupid." Yeah. You read that right. The one where Ernest has to stop the evil trolls. I actually made it through the whole thing, and I only dozed off once.
I really enjoy many of the asthetic and imaginative qualities of Halloween. However, the actual holiday is always anti-climactic (for me). I never go to any Halloween balls, or put on a haunted house or anything. I don't really have the time or resources.
Anyway, that's my blog. Sorry I've been away for so long. I have renewed, my children.
