girls, girls, you’re both pretty

The Halcyon Halloween bash was a huge success… and the costumes were seriously out of control. Some people went high concept, some people had no concept, there was liquid latex and two pink wigs and a couple sets of matching couple-costumes and pieces of AOL cd’s and spanking and cake and the first fire ever in our fireplace and I could hardly believe how gorgeous everyone was. Even my dog got into the act! (Patti and Heather and Jaye played pet dress-up. It was pretty stinking cute.) I took almost two full rolls of film, and maybe someday I’ll get them scanned in here. I love you, friends! You’re all pretty!

In other news, Mike is officially the coolest friend ever! I hadn’t seen him in a long time, and I went over to watch the Buffy I missed from last week (he Tivo’d it.) His house was full of yummy snacks and drinks (yay, Diet Dr. Pepper!) and he even let me borrow his extra laptop for the month to write my novel. (M1K3, j00 r0X0r!)

I’m sorry I haven’t been around much. Between teaching and working and rehearsing I’m having a hard time remembering to take time for things like breathing, not to mention blogging. You may notice that I haven’t mailed out the retreat minutes yet - that would be why. They’re coming, I promise. Just not tonight…
