Happy Halloween

i love Halloween…it’s the 2nd of 2 American things that i have completely embraced; we don’t do anything for halloween at home!  Every year, i dress in costume and have somewhere to go.  In fact, last was the 1st year since i’ve started dressing up that i didn’t do anything and it was somewhat depressing.  So this year, a friend was throwing a party and i found out about it in Sept (or so) so WOOHOO i get to dress up.  As the time drew nearer, i realized that i wasn’t as excited as i normally get and about 3 weeks before the party, it hit me that:

1. i really wasn’t that interested in going to the party and 
2. 75% of the fun is going to Party City (or wherever) to look for the perfect costume (or idea)…shopping online is not so much fun for me

fast forward 1 week prior and all of a sudden, the Halloween Spirit hit me in the gut!  I want to go the party AND i want a costume!

So since i have the cane, i figured i would incorporate it into the costume and go as a lady pimp or something, but the time i was done browsing, i decided on a Viking Princess.  Ah…such a cute/sexy costume right?  WRONG!!!!  the damn thing came and as cute and hot as that model looked in hers, i looked RIDICULOUS in mine; the hat was too shallow, the dress was too big and it wasn’t that nice chocalte-y colour either – it was more of a baby tootoo brown!!!  the best thing in the costume bag were the boot covers!  STEUPSSSSS!!!!!  Of course, because i’d waited till a week prior, it was too late to do anything with the stupid ass thing!  i still have it, in case anyone is in need of a Viking Princess costume

I was pissed!  i still went to the party dressed as “woman with cane” and i had a good time, but i’m not going to fool around again next time 🙂

Anyhoo, Happy Halloween to all!!
