Something about Pumpkins

October 27, 2011

I love Halloween…even with all the nonsense that has been going on in my life I still love it and K is coming into town today!! Woo hooo for that.

Things are starting to look up for me so you all will happy to hear there probably won’t be anymore depressing posts.

I love carving pumpkins but this year I was inspired by Ms. Hautemess  and decided to pretify my pumpkins. I know that word does not exist but it kinda does.

I’ve also rediscovered my love for Candy Corn this year. So my desk is a combo of pretty little pumpkins and bags of candy corn. I also need to thank the candy corn for the stomach aches I’ve had for a week straight. So good but terrible for you. If I keep this up I will be toothless by Halloween.

The company I work for always takes a Halloween photo every year:

Ooh yes that is me in the sexy maid costume and as Eve the year before

Anyway the point of that was that in an effort to find a work appropriate costume this year I went to the store with the idea that I would find anything and zombify it but of course what really happened was that I walked out of the costume store with a face mask and some peacock wings. Yes, this is what happens to  me when I can’t decide on something. So this years picture will feature me in a stupid mask with stupid wings.

The costume that I have planned for this Saturday is all kinds of fun. I spent the few days working hard with my coworker and roommate sewing and cutting up stuff to make it. Sooooo very excited!! Of course I can’t show you till I get a good picture in the costume but I am very very excited. I love homemade costumes and I especially love being able to dress up with someone(s).

Running my own sweatshop…my coworker(top) & roomie(bottom) 

Stay tuned for pictures from this weekend that will most likely be a drunken mess.
