Help me pick a halloween costume!!!

I may or may not pick any of these costumes, but now is the time to buy a costume on Ebay, there are lots to choose from.

Dorthy: I have always wanted to be Dorthy, but that requires me buying new shoes




Lucy! who knew, I think with the right wig I could pull this off. I already have the pearls...





Pirate wench. I soooo want to be a pirate. I talked like a pirate for a whole day last week. Arrrgh!


Bar wench, not to be confused with pirate wench. This is a whole different class of wench.




Moving away from the world of corsets, there is the 50's poodle skirt costume. Very Grease.


And then there is seriously Greasy.
I could be French Fries!





Oh the irony of a vegetarian dressing up as a Big Mac.

What's your vote? What should I be for Halloween???

Guess What's in it to Win it

The Beat, a radio station, has a contest that is nearing the end. You have to guess how much the prize is worth to the penny. They put the call out that it was time to call in for the contest. I grabbed my phone and started dialing. Ring Ring Ring. Oh my god, my heart was pounding. I so need the money! I hear "Hello, blah blah blah." And I say "Hi, is it time to play Guess what's in it to win?" Long pause.

total attitude voice "uh, this is 95 CRAVE..."

oops. Crave sucks, she probably gets those calls all the time. I should have requested Ace of Base since I had her on the phone. Ace of Base seems to be on their high rotation list lately.

But if you are keeping track of the contest the prize value is somewhere between $21,634.70 - $21,639.45

September

Nothing new and exciting in the last week or so because I'm working 6 days a week right now. Ugh, I thought it would motivate me in my job hunting. It has, sort of, but it is also making it difficult to find the time to job hunt.




So in the mean time, I have pictures of a Marley the kitten in the sink:


She plays in the sink all the time, but as soon as the camera comes out, she stops looking cute and starts looking gawky.



And more kitties playing:

It's a pouncing game.

September

Ahhh, September! I love fall... the leaves, the weather, the school supplies. What's not to like?

This is the first September in 20 years that I haven't bought school supplies. Last night I walked down the aisle looking at the pencils, and loose leaf paper. I almost bought glue because it was cheap, but I stopped myself from that impulse purchase. When is the last time I glued something??? 1991? I used to get excited when I bought new school supplies, and loved to get all my binders and pens and paper all set up for the first day of school. But no more....

It's getting colder at night, and I'm thinking it is almost time to pack the shorts and tank tops away and pull out my winter clothes. I like rediscovering the clothes that I packed away in April. It isn't really cold enough for the winter gear, but any excuse to pull out the wool socks I guess. If I had the time, I would like to learn how to knit socks. I wonder if they're easier than scarfs? I started a scarf 2 years ago but stopped because I decided it was ugly and I'd be embarrassed to wear it. It was red and white striped like a Where's Waldo shirt.
