A witch! That's what I was in 1st grade. It just hit me for some reason. I was also at one point a ghost with that mask from "Scream" years before the movie. This is all very interesting to no one I'm sure.

Costume History

1. April O'Niel
22. Virgin Mary
3. Satin Satan
4. Evil Snow Queen
5. Hedwig
6. White Fairy
7. Courtney Love
8. Tinkerbell
9. Jackie O covered in blood and brain
10. Alice in Wonderland
11. a TV
12. jester
13. bag of jellybeans
14. belly dancer
15. a web faced dead monster thing
16. a french maid (I was a 4th grade slut)
17. the devil
18. Miss America
19. Southern belle
20. Cinderella
21. a ballet dancer
22. Casper the friendly ghost

crap, I can't remember one of them. I can't remember what I was in 1st grade. I'm sure it was some mask with a plastic tunic you put over it but I can't remember. Oh well, I'm sure I have photos somewhere to remind me.

No Stranger to Candy

Ugh! I tried on my entire Halloween costume last night and felt so gross. It is so tight and I haven't been going to the gym this week and have been eating so much Halloween candy. I'm not sure what I can really do between now and Friday to look better. Also I wish I hadn't talked up my costume to people. In my head it looked a lot better then it turned out. Also I think I am bordering the slutty Halloween costume category which I hate. Whatever, I'm going to suck it up (perhaps literally) and work it best I can.

Pumpkin Patch Kids

Oh goodness I had a nice time at the Very Pumpkin Sunday yesterday at Aimee's. Aimee made yummy pumpkin manicotti, pumpkin cookies, and pumpkin soup. I made a pumpkin dessert as well. Lisa and Mike came and Lisa brought this amazing tool to carve her pumpkin. I went to a few stores and I could not find a pumpkin carving knife anywhere. I used my xacto blade which turned out to be a good pumpkin stabbing tool. Laurel carved an amazing Obama pumpkin. After pumpkin carving Doug came home and we got to see his new amazing cats. They are delightful and very beautiful. I put my pumpkin on my porch and look forward to seeing it when I go home tonight.

Running on Empty

I hate going to the gas station. 90% of the time I get harassed. I dread when my tank gets low because I know that I will have to stop somewhere and be subjected to some sort of verbal harassment of usually the sexual nature by some sort of crack head. Last night this one crack head was swearing up a storm about something and then sees me and beelines toward me and apologies about his language. He then gets in my face and goes on and on about how beautiful my eyes are, but not in a good way, it feels like at any moment he is going to rip them from my face and try and shove them in his own eye sockets or mount them on a wall somewhere. After he is babbling on and on about our strong connection and how I need to go someplace with him another man comes along. I foolishly was hoping he came to save me from this other guy, but no. The new guy is insisting on washing my windows even though I repeatedly told him no. I fastly get in my car and lock it and drive off slowly so one of them doesn't throw himself on my car and pretend that I've hit him, which has happened before more then once. Then there are the people that drive by and yell things at you. I hate the gas station with all my heart. It is bad enough that I have to pay so much money for gas. You think for what I pay I would be protected better but no. Not one gas station attendant has ever come to my aid by helping me get some jerk off me from touching my ass or trying to get in my car. That low gas tank is such a horrible precursor to some form of humiliation and fear.
