A Sneak Preview

Mood: excellent
Music: Rolling Stones - I can't get no satisfaction

The problem with going to the gym so often (three times this week! Which, as I pointed out to Cat, is more often than married people have sex!) is that now I want to eat like a horse. And not just any old horse, either - no pansy Seabiscuit ponies! I mean like one of those big macho horses that work the feilds all day - a clydesdale!

...Man I could go for a Big Mac.

Anyways. If you turn your attention to Exhibit A, you will see my halloween costume (which I gingerly laid in the grass so you could see how nicely the purple of my spider web cape [A] comes out). The only truly 'thrifty' unit of my costume is [C], the gawd-awful, unnatural, heavy, flame-retardant black bungee skirt. It's good though because it is made out of billions of tiny elastics which give it a bewitching sort of movement, and includes a slit which I didn't know when I bought it, but I think it adds to the appeal. [B] is just this cute lacey black cami that I found at Winners and [D] are a pair of something that can't decide whether they're shoes or boots, but they're black and they lace up and I got them for FREE, therefore making them perfect in all ways. Not present are pantyhoes. Hehe, panty'hoes'...

Now, if you take a look at Exhibit B,you will notice a crapload of makeup, including the previously mentioned kilo of black eye makeup [C] (which is accompanied by brownish/pinkish eyeshadow which is fabulous under the eyes and cheekbones)! Also present is the black nail polish [A], essential for any good halloween, white hairspray [B] to create that "I'm dead" look, mascara and eye liner [D] which I will be using plenty of, powder that is way paler than I am [E], and finally, a cache of lipsticks [F] which combine to make a dark and freakish result. Not present are the crapload of bobby pins and possible wax product I will be needing to give Robert Smith's hair a run for it's money.

Ta Da!
