Let's Celebrate, It's All Right!

So I just realized that in January I will have been a figure skating fan (or Scott Hamilton fan if you wanna look at it that way). That is one long life for an obsession.

Halloween last night was decent. I didn't have as much fun as laster year, but it was an okay night. The house was, once again, a big hit. We already have the theme for next year. It will be Monsters Inc's Monster Mash. Disco Balls and whimsical colors and Monsters! w00t!

Not that I'm planning to be here for it, and no doubt that won't actually happen, but I can dream. I'm getting to where I'm just existing.

I finally found my costume. 57 dollars later.

Oh well, its awesome and I can probably get more than one years use out of it should I want to. If not, it's a great costume and there'd be nothing stopping it from going on craigslist or ebay next year.

But I still have my Daisy Duck Costume and Pirate costume and I've used them other times of the year not just during Halloween, so you never know! :)

I love dressing up!

After I found my costume I went and visited with G'ma and G'pa. I missed them. I've got to make it a point to visit more regularly.

Tonight Judy, Gaylord and I are going to sit down and watch Indy 4 - FINALLY! I am sooooooooooooooooooo excited to get to see Indy! *bounces*

Interestingly enough, Gaylord thinks i don't like him. Judy had to sit me down and tell me that this afternoon. Because I don't talk to him, I don't eat at the table with them and I don't interact.

1. I apparently don't read him well, because he always seems annoyed or not interested when I talk.
2. I don't always eat with people. I can't stand hearing people chew and both Judy and Gaylord smack their lips (he does it excessively) and that drives me nuts. Because it's just my wacked out issue I avoid the problem.
3. Every time I try I get a cold shoulder OR Judy gets mad. Again, not my problem.

He seems like a nice enough guy, but if he and I don't find someway to break that barrier this is going to get more than a little annoying lol.

He's all excited for "family movie night"... so I guess I'll have to turn off the computer for a bit tonight and not even bring out my WDW planning book while I watch the movie... it's gonna be like old school movie watching! ha ha!

Tomorrow we decorate the outside of the house. Yipee!

Why is it that last year I couldn't find a Pirate costume anywhere and now they're all over, but I can't find a ghostly costume? Seriously??? Pirates and Sluts are the only two types of costume in this freaking town! UGH!

So now I'm trying to find something online and no one will ship to Alaska. BLAH! I'm gonna throw a major tantrum if this doesn't start going my way...

...maybe Amazon.com will have something.

So I'm looking up ghostly looking costumes that will fit with the haunted mansion theme... so far the only ones I like are either sold out in my size, or they don't come in the size, period...

I REALLY like this one, but there ain't no way I'd fit "standard size."

This is so much fun, though! I'm excited to dress up and scare the beejeebies outta little kids! *evil laugh*

*Mu-wah-ha-ha-ha-ha, ha-ha-ha-ha!*

Soooooooooooooo completely new style and layout. Coding was done by a person on LJ... and I of course changed the banner and wording to suit my needs. Since Hallowe'en is fast approaching I have decided to stick with a Disney theme with a twist. It's Disney's Haunted Mansion! :)

We're also decorating the house here in Anchorage with that theme, so I'm really getting into the mood for dressing up. I've decided I'm going as one of the Haunted Mansion ghosts (not Leotta) and tomorrow before I head to class I'm going over to Michaels to purchase a headless bride. She's freaking awesome! Oh and some bloody handprints for the window. Yeah, it's going to be one heck of a hallowe'en!

After class tomorrow I'm heading down to Kenai. A friend is getting married on Saturday so it's a good enough excuse. Yay for 1200 bucks from palin being put to use! I love that woman! hee hee!

Aight, back to packing and cleaning. I bit the bullet tonight and packed up the summer clothes and broke out the fall/winter stuff. Not fun.

So lets just say sleeping without my puppy just can not happen unless I am sharing a room with a friend or something. I missed her so much last night... it was too quiet without her snoring! Yikes!!!!!! I guess I will live. 3 days till DISNEY WORLD!!! So I should look at this as a worthy sacrifice, right? WRONG. I wish I could bring her with me. I miss my baby girl. :(

Anyway I got up at 6:40 because, lets face it, it was really 7:40 and even though I went to bed at midnight(which was really 11pm?) I just was ready to get up. I caught wind of Halloween on Ice being shown on my CBS station at midnight so I taped that... it was *ok* but not as good as it could have been. Anyway I got ready for church wearing my spiffy new slacks that my mom bought me... I feel so good in them *hugs her slacks*

Went to church... heard about all the fun from Saturday night... I was bummed but oh well I wasn't feeling well so I will get over it. Went to church the whole candidate thing wasn't as bad as I thought... the last guy up there said "I'm so and so(I can't remember his name ha ha) and I don't have any ads on TV" that's when the entire congregation went into hysterics laughing and applauding... I think he won his district today ha ha! Pastor Prevo had a joke about the media(see "Media? Biased?" down below) it was good. Then he finished his thing on Tithing today... I will miss the next two sundays and I am bummed... I really like his preaching BUT!!! for one Sunday I am on vacation and the next sunday I get to be in Kenai in my home church so it is alllllllllllll good!!!!!! :)

oh and my name was in the bulletin for being a new member, isn't that cool? (it's the simple things in life ha ha!)

Erin's brother got in a major accident the other day and so she might not come home for Christmas :( I miss her. I am so lonely. :(

Keith and Trish are going to come over tomorrow night. and I start packing tomorrow... Disney World or Bust!!!

The trick-or-treaters were so cute tonight... some of the costumes were great... we had a total of 7 spongebobs... a scooby doo, teenage mutant ninja turtle, a ladybug, lots of ghouls, and SNOOPY which was the coolest costume of the night... in total I'll bet we had 45 kids...

oh yeah and 2 more days of annoying TV campaign ads. Just remember and vote Bush so my trip is a happy one ;) ha ha!

my new church has a college age group and on the 30th they're having a costume party
what should I go as??? ACK!

ok now that I got that out... I got my haircut Monday night... wanted the exact same cut as last spring(the Kelly cut from J2K) yeah, that didn't happen. Somehow this lady thought my hair wouldn't "shrink" when dry and cut it right where she thought I wanted it to end up... which means it's an inch shorter than I wanted... it totally makes my face look fat(ok so it is but still!) and when my glasses are off and you can't see my chest area you would swear I was a guy...

I've gotten "great reviews" from everyone even before I complain about it (ha ha!) but I don't know if I like it... oh well... *sigh*

I'm trying to talk Kassy into driving up here next weekend(halloween weekend) so she can come with me to the party... not sure if she'll get to(or even really want to) but I need someone I know... I miss home for that reason...

I had a mid-term in US History (1000AD - Civil War) yeah it sucked. If I get a C not only will I be happy I will be shocked... there was sooooooo much to remember and we had 4 2-page essays to write(and this is a basic course, not an upper level one, yikes!) it was incredible... i am vegging and I just... I don't know... I really don't like how this semester is going. I have a geology teacher who thinks that I am retarded because I won't believe his whole Geologic Time theroey(that's all it is until they can prove it, which they can't!) I have a group project that is going really no where(crazy lady is now wanting the aliens again help!!!) and now this mid-term... plus a paper due soon that I really have no idea where I'm going with it

I am starting to stress and it's starting to show!!!!!!







how long till Nationals?
