I think I got it from mia mother. You see, she always wanted to be an actress, but never was, so instead Halloween was her day to shine. She could play the part of whatever role she wanted all day. I'm the same way. Cept with dance. Either way, Halloween is my day to be whatever I want to be.
I took it easy this year. Like... really easy. But as I drove home last night, I realized... I didn't hate "toning it down." I'll explain more in a bit, for now though, simply enjoy a few pictures.
This is the love of my life dressing up as a T-Rex.
Crazy how the two men I'm in love with (my little cousin and boyfriend) love dinosaurs. These are Paul's pumpkins.
Jurassic Park
Man Hanging
And his yearly "Jack"
Now here are mine! This was my first year doing a happy, normal Jack-Lantern Face
My yearly "sinnister" pumpkin
And the one I do EVERY year and think its hilarious every time....
"Pumpkin Pi"
Alright, back to what I was saying earlier, normally I dress up big time, and party like it's 1999. This year... I carved 5 pumpkins, wore a jazz jersey, ate soup, did Frightmares, went to my yearly Thriller dance production, and watched mildly scary movies throughout the whole month.
I didn't go to a million dance parties. I didn't go to a haunted house. I didn't watch a "pee your pants scary" movie. I didn't stay out till 2 am. I didn't spend 4 hours on a single pumpkin. I didn't have a crazy costume.
While I wish I would have gone dancing at least once, and I really should have been a ninja turtle again... I was strangely happy last night while I drove home from Paul's house. Maybe we're getting the hang of this "compromising" thing. Maybe I'm getting soft in my old age. Whatever it is... I had a calm, quite Halloween.
