Halloween Highlights

"It's quite large."

I wanted to dress up and go to the school for a costume contest; of course, I didn't. I woke up late, for one, and the costume I wanted to have couldn't be completed the way I wanted: part of the costume cost way more than I had figured, and the other part was no longer for sale. So sadly I went home, and did nothing all day.

At night I went to eat with my parents, and some other people came along. It isn't like I didn't want to eat with them... I just wasn't in the mood for other people; more specifically, people I knew would heckle me about mundane things. But all that aside, I went back to the mall with my parents, and just seeing everyone walking around with a costume on made me feel crapy, so I went and bought a pair of small black wings. I can use these for my desired costume, it will just have to look a little different on Saturday when our belated Halloween party is.

Donning the wings I strut around the mall for a little bit, and then after a short break at home, I go to the local Starbucks and chill. Haile and I eventually meet up and go to see the annual Halloween film at the Paramount.

As you can tell, it was a very drab and dull holiday, but it's done, and that means that Thanksgiving and Christmas are coming along soon enough.

I start my new job Thursday for real. We'll see how it goes.
