I may have gone a little nuts at the temporary Halloween stores on half-price day. Two Spirits, one Halloween Express. Attempted Halloween City (dunno if that one's a chain or a one-off), but they were closed. At 6:30 on November 1, because they are very foolish. (Or possibly had to be out of the space tonight, I dunno ( Read more... )

The only bit remaining for my hall costume. I've been looking some, but I'm glad I didn't find anything, because I was looking based on the screencaps from the web-only prequel, and the impression I got from them was not at all right.

Rewatching the season with havocthecat and deire, I realized that the same jewelry they put on her for the prequel is worn ( Read more... )

Dress came! I couldn't be arsed to iron it or curl my hair just for these, but you get the general idea. (Click to embiggen any of the below)

Just got email from Solange, who is deathly ill and has wisely decided to opt out of teaching this week. So, no voice lesson tonight!

Trying to decide whether to go shopping (which I need to actually physically do a little bit, though most of it has been handled online, and it would probably be wise to do so either tonight or tomorrow rather than ( Read more... )
