Happy Halloweenie!

It's kind of hard to keep up with blogging when you don't really have internet. My current roomie is the cheapest person I know. She has rabbit ears for her TV and used government assistance to get the digital box when the rest of the world converted to digital. Aka she gets like 15 channels. She also steals internet which is mostly accessible on her back porch and it's a little cold for me to be chilling out there. But she's giving me a free place to stay so I can't really complain. I'm currently at Starbucks and I'm that annoying person that came in for the internet and didn't buy anything. I was at Panera but evidently they have a 30 minute time limit on internet. Really??

I got to wear two costumes this weekend which makes my Halloween awesome because I absolutely love dressing up. My first outfit was Katy Perry from the California Girls video. Picture jorts and a cupcake bra with a blue wig. It was glorious, but not very kid friendly so for trick or treating with my niece and nephew on Sunday I needed another outfit. I went for 80's and rocked a mullet, aviators and an ACDC shirt. My mom's response?

"You look like what grandmother called you that one time." She's referring to one Christmas dinner when my grandmother was asking why I hadn't found a nice boy to date at Carolina. I responded that I just hadn't met the right guy yet. She then asked "Are you into girls?" That's right, my grandmother called me a lesbian at Christmas dinner and years later my family has not let me live it down. My outfit last night did look quite lesbian but I'll let you be the judge.
While I may be too old to trick or treat (not that I didn't try) it was still fun to go with the little kiddos. My nephew was a pirate (again this year) and my niece was a flamingo. They were adorable. My nephew was up at a house getting candy while we waited for him on the sidewalk. A kid in a wolf costume came up behind him to trick or treat and his face dropped as soon as he saw him. He screamed "MOMMY!" and came running back to my sister. The kid took off his mask to show him it wasn't real, but at the next house he turned around again, saw the wolf and burst into tears. Needless to say we had to let the wolf get a few houses ahead before we resumed trick or treating.

I can't believe it's already November! I better get a job soon because come December I will have been without full-time work for an entire year . . . Yowzers
