Well, this is too late, but does it have to be a real pumpkin? Many of the local craft stores sell fake pumpkins that can be carved without having the messy pulp. I saw Martha Stewart carving one the other day on TV and it seemed at least as easy as the real thing.
If there are any left in the local craft stores, you might consider picking up one for next year. You can pull it out mid October and spend time planing what to do with it.
