tHe AnTiCiPatIon Vs. ThE ReAL tHiNg

Dear jess,

ive been hooked on 'super text twist' lately.. its a great psychotic word game!! you should really try it.. go search it up.. trust me, you'd be hooked too...

Saturday was my first attempt to indulge in a 'dress party' YAY!! well, it was halloween and my cousins and i wanted to get dressed, and perhaps even win the best costume.. No, we do not subscribe to demons and ghost, and well truth be known there were more people dressed as angels that night! anyways i think people (LIKE US) just wanna go crazy and wear costumes every once in a while.

Was a good break from the stresses of grief that we've been hurdling, and we let ourselves go crazy with the buying but MOstly with the giggly excitement. the three beautiful and beautiful witches we decided to be. No way were we gonna be wrinkly old witches with grey hair and huge pimples.. Yes, yes we're vain but who can blame us? it paid off too you know.. only the three witches got offered drinks on the house for getting all dressed :)

We bought our witchy hats, and fingernails.. and sprayed painted it black.. black lipstick, black eyeshadow... The most hilarious part was once our fake long nails were on, we couldnt do a single thing by ourselves! My attempt to put on a necklace had us laughing to bits as it slipped off and we couldnt open our handbags to use the h/phone, or even open the car door.. needless to say there were more hilariouty in the whole thing.

So off went the powerless and worse still clueless witches, with pokie hats and gothic make up that managed to scare ourselves in the mirror.. (so much for beautiful).

So proudly we arrived at our destination espanda only to find out our party of three witches, two pirates, one hair banded horned gal, a Jason from jason vs Freddy, and well.. a Casper- sort of... were the only ones dressed.. Sigh how stupid we felt, so we left for velvet, zouk which whilst had tons more people dressed played non stop- ear piercing- heart aching techno.. URGHHH well its not like anyone can dance with a withces hat on.. but still!! URGGHH.

So there it was... and oh did i mention actually it was a celebration for seans birthday.. hmmm or maybe it was just us wanting to wear costumes.. anyhow.. the anticipation was so much more fun than the event in itself.. SIGH!!

ps. i think next year, ill just get dressed and stay home.. :)

love,
jess
