non-plans

happy halloween! my celebrating involves drinking pumpkin beer and watching "ghost" on tv. had class tonight and saw all the cute little trick-or-treaters on the walk there. a couple dorothys, various super heroes, and a little baby in a pea pod costume. a couple dressed up parents, too. the next street over is all dressed up and was full of very happy children. the sun was setting and the clouds were a beautiful shade of pink. on the walk back though, it was dark and windy and the streets were full of teenagers with maybe a crown, maybe a mask. that does not count as a costume in my book.

i dressed up all the way through high school, creative things - a fortune cookie with a chinese collared shirt my mom made, petticoats, a sash that said "miss fortune" and a back full of fortunes written on strips of cloth; a poetry fairy in a pink dress with poems written all over it, a pink spangly sweater and wings; a sugar cube.... so much fun. last year i was minnie mouse in a costume i made for myself; the year before a disgruntled fifties housewife. hopefully getting to dress up on saturday for the liquor treat party MB and her roommates are hosting, but i don't know what i'm wearing yet... may rehash the housewife costume. we'll see.

in other news, my new bra showed up today (the bra i bought because i needed new panties and it was on sale). of course, i don't quite look like her, but it's still exciting. my first brightly colored bra. generally i'm a black/neutral/maybe blue girl.... but i figured i might as well be adventurous for once. and i think i'm happy with it. plus it's got the pretty flower applique.



deciding not to read tonight. i deserve a break after all my class on weds. at least, in my opinion i do. and think about my pretty new bra and all the people who won't be seeing it.
