guess who's sick? (it's been coming for a while.) achy and headspinning and tired and nauseous. hopefully if i drink a lot of echinacea and take a lot of C, it will pass.
also, i acquired plastic bead boxes up the proverbial wazoo, i am bleeding plastic bead boxes, but you know what? (no, what? chickenbutt? choruses my subconscious) - i bought THE WRONG KIND. i meant to buy more of the stacking kind where the bottom of one becomes the lid of the one below it. i bought none of those and instead bought 5 less efficient ones (which I was able to fill, but still).
I have been thwarted in my desire to be Margot Tenenbaum for Halloween, due to my inability to find the appropriate dress in an appropriate size. So I bought a little $4 pair of purple glitter wings tonight. I know it is not an inventive costume whatsoever, but I've actually never been a fairy for Halloween before, and with the wings I can throw the rest of such a costume together easily... long wig or falls, lots of glitter, big pouffy skirts, etc. i even have holographic stars that I can pin into my hair.
also - while i was out tonight, i ran into my 10th grade history teacher, who is a good guy. i have run into him in the past, and he didn't recognize me then because i was dyeing my hair. but now my hair is the same color (within reason) as it was when i was in his class, and he knocked on my window in the parking lot and waved and said "hey! i know you!" and i smiled and waved back. i was an odd bird when i was younger, so i am always pleased when people who knew me when i was 15 or so don't run screaming now. i suppose we appear more awkward and unbearable to our own selves at that age than we actually are.
