It is now 8 days since the pumpkins were carved, and they're looking a bit droopy. About 3 days ago they were evicted from the living room - the smell of them, bat in particular, was starting to become too strong, with liquid gathering in the bottom of it. Bat's face is caving in on itself, and "Bugaboo" is bending backwards like Neo in "The Matrix". The inside of the pumpkins is now mottled - it appears as though mold is setting in. They live outside now - letting go is hard, though I think we'll have to soon.
This weekend was pretty good - today was the warmest it has been for quite a while, around 20 degrees celsius, so we spent some time outside. Yesterday we got a couch from Liz's grandmother, which is really good, because it means no more using the futon as our living room couch anymore. After 18 months of solid use as a day-to-day couch the mattress on the futon was starting to get annoying and uncomfortable.
