Waiting, waiting, waiting. I've been pretty ancy all week, and now Friday afternoon could not go any slower. Is it possible that there are more than 60 seconds in a minute today? I'm at a point at work where I have to wait for people to get back to me before I can take the next step on projects, so I'm just waiting here too. And I'm so much less productive when I only have a few things to do. The next few months are going to be boring. I see lots of filing and blogging in my future.
I am excited about Halloween tonight, or at least I want to be. I'm sure whatever party I end up going to will be fun, at least for a while. Fervent enthusiasm, I know. Last Halloween was pretty fun. I was dressed as Toto from the Wizard of Oz, and Kristin was Glinda the Good Witch, and Stephanie was the Cowardly Lion. We hosted a "Favorite Things" party, where everyone had to come as or wearing one of their favorite things (mine was the black velvet pants I wore). Somehow some of the best costumes of the night came from Downstairs Neighbor Jay and friends Jay and Todd, who came dressed as firemen. Yes, girls will always give firemen a second look. Yes, it's because they're in uniform, but also because there's a good chance they are hot. Yes, it works when it's a Halloween costume too.
Good times were had by all.
Tonight I'll probably end up going out with one of my roommates, who is going to dress up as a flapper. Last year she was a sexy zebra. What's a sexy zebra? I don't really have an explanation as to why Halloween has turned into an excuse for girls to show as much skin as possible while dressing as the most mundane people (or animals) in everyday life (or the zoo). Although the best idea for costumes that Laura and I came up with this year (and by best, I mean funniest) was Naughty Crossing Guard.
Of course, when people meet me for the first time in bars, they generally say things like "You're just as cute as a button" and "You just look so decent." Not that those are bad things, but maybe I haven't mastered SA yet. Except when I want to.
There was an Onion headline a couple of years ago this week that read "Slut Is Number One Costume Again This Year." Hee hee.
Nobody I know has burned down in California yet, and the fires seem to be dying out. That could just mean that national news is tired of covering them, but I don't think there's that much out there right now (comparitively). There was an interesting post on ESPN today about Arizona getting the contract for the 2008 Superbowl (much to the chagrin of Washington, DC). ESPN suggested that it should have been awarded to San Diego as a sort of sign of good faith for the economy and rebuilding process. I think it would be okay for the Superbowl to be in San Diego every year -- as long as the Raiders don't always go. And I think that's pretty safe to count on.
