So last night was amusing... at least, from an anthropological standpoint. Ben (who makes a rather dashing pirate, I must say!) came over and we ran by the SECH party looking for Birdie to see that costume she's been talking about for months. (We missed you, though! Had you already made your kill?)
Anyhoo. There was a giant penis there. And Xavier, who is never going to forget this, makes a very handsome woman. =) My personal favorite was Trogdor... not because the costume was any good (a lizard hat and a t-shirt that said "Trogdor the Jedi" on the front and "Burninating the Force" on the back) but I was amused. The piratey girl was cute. And I think she was one of the few with a distinct lack of revealed cleavage! Impressive.
I wasn't terribly creative... I used that white bit that I got in Memphis (Erin and Birdie know!), whipped out the dark eyeliner and dark lipstick, and put on that nifty circlet. Again, nothing in particular... sort of mildly Indian, (spots, not feathers) but there was skin and not-normal-clothingness. (The skin part wasn't that great, actually... it was cold and clammy.)
Now today... hmm. Today is *actually* Halloween. I want to dress up all day. Problem is, I have to be in church clothes all morning, then I'm moving stuff. Maybe this evening. Cool beans.
I am never going to get this Psychology of Women project done. I was supposed to find 30 women's magazine articles that described women with hyphenated or double surnames (ie, women who kept their maiden name and added on a new one.) I went through two years of backissues of Glamour, Cosmo and Redbook, and I only found five. FIVE! This makes me sad. I even tried to expand by using Google for articles... I found nothing on Hillary Rodham Clinton and only crap on John Kerry, not Teresa Heinz. Catherine Zeta-Jones is suing some strip club, and that's all on her. I am rather upset. I mean, I know only 10% of women hyphenate or double their surname, but why aren't any of them in these magazines??? Come on ladies... get your articles published. Before Tuesday!
You know Fort Book hold backissues of Glamour all the way back to 1952?!?
Blarg. I have half an hour yet before I need to leave. Who in the world goes to church on Halloween, anyway? I feel like I should burn candles when I get home.
In better news, I have health insurance now. =)
