Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Oh, I forgot to put on a tiara when the grocery delivery guy arrived.
Which of your many costumes is this, Epic?
I'm dressing up as an unnerving governess who's a vampire. So, my regular daily wear with heavier makeup and my fangs.

Even in years when the weather is great, we only get maybe 30 kids for trick-or-treating. But with this rain, I'll be surprised if we get any. Tim is going to be taking a lot of Skittles and Starburst to work tomorrow.

I'm doing a band thing at an outdoor event whose theme is apparently haunted ghost town or something -- I'm going to have to decide if it's warm enough to wear (just) my old Cowgirl Jesse suede jacket.
What, no chaps?
ltc will be Vampirina and TCG is going as a skeleton chef from the show. I have a witches hat which I'll wear with a black dress and some black lipstick.
