November Musings
This was my Halloween costume that I wore to work. I actually put a good deal of work and thought into it. I was a tour guide for hell. Lots of detail, but the second place winner of our costume contest was still some douche who just wore a wig and decided to proclaim he was in costume. Ballot box stuffing motherfuckers.
I took down the Halloween decorations last night and put up my Thanksgiving/harvest decorations. The perfection in this situation is that all harvest/fall decorations go on sale with all the Halloween stuff so everything was 40-60% off. I went to Michael's AND Beverly's to maximize decor. I took a photo that I'll put online later... I'm pretty happy with it and Dominic seemed to like it. It probably helps that I also cleaned off the coffee table to go along with the decor.
For some reason I have a random idea to have a Pilgrim Party... like a thanksgiving dinner but with friends. This would theorhetically involve cooking a turkey. I asked Dominic if it was crazy for me to want to cook a turkey. He quickly said yes. So I'm not sure... I sort of don't have the dining room for such an event anyway. Ah someday... the Martha Stewart in me will come out!
Rachel and I finally got all the pumpkin taken care of, more or less. There's 6 cups frozen in my freezer, but I'm going to thaw mine out closer to Thanksgiving and make a few more loaves of bread. Yum.
I'm trying to get back on the weight loss wagon. I gained back like 9lbs in the last month which was pretty discouraging, but this week I lost 2.5lb of that. I went back to yogurt for breakfast and a really super light lunch (soup). I need to get more 100 cal packs though and figure something out for dinners. I'm finally sick and tired of these Healthy Choice meals, so I need to figure something out. Something that doesn't involve giving in to my desires and going to IHOP after seeing that commercial all night!
