Halloween is fast approaching and I do not have a costume. I blame my apathy towards Halloween on my parents. We were those people who thought Halloween was a celebration of the devil. To this day I find it to be a stupid holiday. In other news, I think my costume will be a bit slutty. There is also a good chance I'll bring a change of clothes to stay warm.

I need new friends. Correction. I need more friends that live close by. I have awesome friends - they just happen to live in different states. It's kinda hard to plan nights out on the town when they're 13 hours away. Also, I need friends with money who don't mind dropping $25 to see Twelfth Night and who don't mind splurging to see a Broadway performance. It's hard for both ends of the friendship.

I almost did something stupid Friday night. I'm not quite sure what stopped me. I texted a friend that I knew would yell at me and he did. Not in a bad way, he just said the obvious - don't do it! I got dropped off at his house and he took me home. No yelling. No I told you so's. No what the fuck were you thinkings? Just, "Can you make it into the house?" and "Call me tomorrow so we can get your car." I'm glad he's in my life. And I'm really glad I didn't sleep with that random guy.

I was at Home Goods the other day, walked into their Christmas section, and started tearing up. My mom loved Christmas. It's still hard for me to look at Nativity sets and not cry. I don't think about my mom as often as I thought I would, but when I do it sucks. Of course any time I have cooking questions I think of her. Fortunately I have no problem calling my mom's friends with cooking questions and they answer them like it's just a normal thing for me to call them up. It's a blessing - a sad one - but a blessing at that.

I've been on a clothes-buying spree. Some of you will say that this is normal - and that was true a few years ago, but I had curbed my urges significantly. Now I decide I need something, I find it, and I buy it. I'm pretty decisive about them - and I look pretty damn good in my new purchases. It's a problem, especially since work gave us a pay-cut and I have to start paying back my student loans. I suppose I'm done for now, especially since I found a birthday dress in blue and I don't really need anymore shoes. Oh, and Christmas is only a few months away so I have to find presents for the family. So I'm done until the after-Christmas sales. Let's see how long that lasts.
