We have a party to go to tonight - hosted by my friend the Witch - and it's going to be great. I'm going in my uber cool Midnight Priestess costume (complete with my fangs thrown in for good measure *lol*) and my Love's getting done up a la Nosferatu. We got him a bald cap, pointy ears and a ton of white/grey/black makeup. Neither of us has done something like this before, but who cares! It'll be fun.

I love Halloween. It's a great time. The air is charged, everything is active and possible. It's like the last, large, Huzzah before the quite of the Winter. Man-oh-man I LOVE Halloween! :)

I'm taking my camera with me tonight so look for pics probably tomorrow. If I don't post again today (which I probably won't have time to) Everyone have a happy and safe Halloween and a Blessed Sahmain!

Yeah, I'm full of blog-goodness at the moment. (I'm surfing and have not yet closed the blogger entry window, hense the frequent posts. lol)

VERY cool Wiccan/Pagan Teeshirt Wow. I like. :) Her site is full of beautiful art. Saw her stuff a couple years back - some angel pieces - and I still like it. I keep an eye on her site every now and then when I remember. Just lovely. Well worth a look.

iiiiiiiiiiiinteresting.

Oh come on. Do they really expect me to believe this?

A great many of you have asked that the minimum check amount be raised from $10 to a higher amount because of the fees you are charged for cashing checks. In response, checks will now be issued once you reach $25 in commissions due. You also have the option of choosing higher thresholds. If you wish to still get checks at the $10 amount through the end of the year - simply log in and visit the Payee tab to update your setting to $10 by November 7th.

Does CafePress think we're stupid? Yes, I'm sure they had "a great many" people ask for a higher minimum check payment limit. Yes, CafePress, PLEASE make it harder for me to actually get PAID from the items I sell. Riiiight. And you have the balls to try to call it a "feature?" Uh hu. *bullshit*

Had a busy day. Ran around like mad. Just got home from Annual Pumpkin Carving! Weeee! I took a TON of pics so look for a gallery late tonight or tomorrow. For now, just checking in and had to mention the CafePress thing for it's sheer audacity. If you use them, go change your limit back now while you can. Then you can join me in waiting - hoping - to ever qualify for a check by them.

Realized that today would be the only time I'd be able to get some Halloween Costume photos taken. So I did. :)

Click me to see the gallery!

Most are silly, but hey! That's the point! It's Halloween!

Mkay, that's it for the moment. ttfn.

Just something that came to me tonight.

when something died

when something died
the sunset came
the sky gone to grey

when something died
the fire burned out
the heat fled away

when something died
the wind grew still
the air spoke no more

when something died
the river dried
the water lost the shore

when something died
the earth went hard
the ground turned to clay

when something died
the life passed by
the silence of the day

: Saturday, October 26th 2002 :
Woke up to my Love having made me breakfast in bed (just because). A huge, warm cinnamon bun, slices of apples and peaches and a fruit smoothie. He's so great.

We then spent a couple hours driving around, trying to find my costume since every place I looked the other day with Jef was either out, or had it only in Large. We finally ended up driving to the neighboring city where the other location of the one party store was and they had several! in the right size, right there on the shelf. It was crammed busy, but I saw it right away, snagged it and jumped for joy. I got my costume! :)

Got home, tried it on - it fits great! I definately needed the "teen" size one - and my Love took a pic:

I'm not all done up or anything, so it'll look even cooler on Halloween. I'm gonna add my fangs, and some makeup and such and I think it will look awesome. If I have time this week, I might do a Halloween photoshoot with my cotume. Depends if I get time.

So, after that, we got together with some friends for bowling. It's our friend Kali's birthday on Monday (she's going to be an old lady at 25! *lol*) and so a group of us all went out to the bowling alley. There were like 11 of us and most of them were drinking, we were cheering and clapping and making jokes. For some reason the bumper guard things were up, so we kept laughing when what would have been a gutter ball, ended up being a spare or something. Cries of "Bumper ball!" would be heard. Much fun was had by all. I bowled like my best game ever. I got a 104. That is freakin' excellent for me. (sad but true).

After we bowled two games (my second I bowled only a 90 *lol*), we went and played some arcade games - the alley has a large arcade there. I played this one guy Billy on Soul Caliber 2 (a game I've not played before, but used to play the first one a few years ago) and beat him three games in a row. It was quite amusing since he's really good at it and beat these other guys who wanted to play him seven times in a row. So I was quite proud of my button-mashing skills. :)

We watched some crack addict play some DDR also - he was using both sides of the pad. He actually brought an entire gallon of water with him to drink from. Some people are just weird about that game. They work on memorizing the moves and it's like not a game for fun anymore, it's something kinda sick and twisted. When you're flayling about, hitting multple steps per half-beat, and you need to bring a gallon of water with you to do it, you're high or crazy or both.

After that, we called it a night and headed on back to the apartment. Despite the fact it was the end of Daylight Savings Time and that we'd have an extra hour to do something, we didn't really have any place else to go. *shrugs* But it was a fun day.

: Today! October 27th 2002 :
Got up a little while ago, formatted the pics from my camera and wrote out this entry offline since I didn't know how long it'd take me and I didn't want to kill my time. Don't quite know what I'm going to do today, but Rand's over, so I guess we'll figure something out. We need to get my Love his bald cap and ears still (he's going as a Nosferatu for Halloween) so maybe we'll hit the costume place over by us since they had the nicest ones.

That's about it. Gonna log on and upload this now (hopefully, since blogger got hacked the other day. ARG. I really need to get onto MT. Maybe I'll bribe Orbie to set it up for me. *lol*
