What SHALL I BE?
Oct. 21st, 2004 10:58 pmSo, here I am, the Queen of Halloween herself, and I have no earthly idea about what I am going to wear on October 31st, or to any costume contests around town.
Here are my ideas, in random order. Feel free to chime in.
( Read more... )
All of these are neat ideas, but I just can't decide. We'll see...
In the mean time, I have to get my plates renewed. (Whoops. They expired LAST MONTH. Oh, yeah right. Like I had TIME to breathe before Archon...)
I get to go see Man of La Mancha tomorrow night (That's Friday.) Anyone else want to go?
We have the children this weekend, so NO we will NOT be attending![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
the_geoffrey's big Halloween Party, since we have no intention of dumping those kids off on someone or dragging them to an adult party. Also, I have to work on Saturday, and so Saturday night will be my only Play With The Kids time, and I want to make Caramel Apples with them. Mmmm. Caramel Apples. (Drool...) Also, spider cookies and Ghostly Nites. (Ok, they're just Nightie Nites but with carefully placed chocolate chips to make Ghost Faces.) They love to bake with me, and the Boy is getting old enough to to the really fun stuff like run the mixer and actually measure the wet ingredients. And the girl loves to do ANYTHING with me, especially "Girl things."
Sigh.
I'll have to break her of that and broaden her horizons.
After Halloween, I have (potentially) a job lined up with Jackman's Fabrics in their sewing machine department. I think I can handle retail sales through Xmas if it's something that specialized... I hope so... I so hate retail in Advent. (Shudder.)
Oh. And a friend of mine is planning (once again) to throw her (now annual) Nightmare Before Christmas party, probably the first or second weekend of December. So, grab a Halloween Costume or make up a new one, and see me for more details. The last one was really fun. She grew up Jewish, so she took an almost perverse pleasure in decorating her "First Christmas Tree" with spiderwebs and pretty bows. (It's OURS this TIME!)
