okay the scary thing is that I almost cut the dress right. Woo that's high!

I adore E-bay, btw. I tried some thrift store shopping for my costumes with no luck. I looked into buying some of the stuff new, but I quickly would have been well over $100 per costume (I have 2 parties, with 2 different themes to attend) going that route. And I tried giving up and looking at costume stores for the crappy versions, and THOSE would cost nearly $100 each.

But a few mintues on E-bay, and I've got just about everything for BOTH costumes for under $100 total. And legit stuff, not crappy costume-grade junk.

Barry Egan and I are going as suicidal writers this year. I'm going to be Sylvia Plath post suicide and Barry is Hunter S. Thompson post suicide. I'm hosting a grown up trick or treating party. We'll go door to door like the kiddies and donate the candy to a local children's shelter. Fun times!

No surprise here -- since I just finished this, I'll mostly likely give it a Halloween spin:
