Everyone loves Halloween and everyone loves "The Office." Therefore, what's a better way to explain all the stages of excitement everyone feels as the beloved holiday approaches?

1. The first week of October rolls around, and this is the only face you can make.

2. You instantly run to the nearest Target to get prepared for the month with decorations and candy. By the time you leave, you resemble this:

3. When you return from home, and all your roommates keep asking who bought the 15 pumpkin flavored candles and air freshers...

4. As the days go on, all you find yourself doing is going on Pinterest to figure out your Halloween costumes and getting emotional every time you think about the fun that will pursue.

5. Then, finally, you find the perfect costume and all you can do is this to celebrate the occasion.

6. You decide to go home and relax with the 13 nights of Halloween marathon. Your friends kindly let you know that not a lot of people are as obsessed with Halloween as you are. You respond simply.

7. As the 31st approaches, you get more and more excited each day. Anyone who tries to diminish your festive spirit is silenced with one look.

8. Finally, Halloween is here and everyone knows what that means...it's time to get spooky.

9. As the night ensues, you realize it's the happiest you've been and you don't want the night to ever end. You're having so much spooktacular fun that your friends are concerned if you're still alive.

10. After a crazy night, you wake up November 1st, and feel overwhelmed with sadness. Your favorite day of the entire year has passed just like that.

11. But, then you remember Thanksgiving and Christmas are just around the corner, and all is well again.
