Monster Day & Stuff!

The big joint Valentine's Day gift thing was to go see Coraline 3D, which I was beginning to fear we'd have to just skip completely, which is a terrible thing to think when you've been looking forward to the movie for over a year.

Now I'm going to start looking forward to The Graveyard Book movie, which should give me a couple years of expectation.

Neogreen
Skulldog

Apparently for those of real connections instead of sad dialup, there is Monster Day Radio which, despite the thing about October on there, is apparently running today.

Of course we owe the existence of Monster Day to ninjahijinx!
