Come As You Aren't.

Happy Halloween/Samhain Everyone!!

Holly Golightly was a bust. I tried on the outfit last night and things did NOT go well. Mostly the skirt is much much too short. Also: Note to self: In the future, do not pick a character from a movie that takes place during a summer heatwave for a late fall holiday as a costume.

Instead, I'm in all black (skirt, sweater), with my new boots, trying to be all sultry : Shirley Manson (first Garbage album, anyhow) meets Emma Peel. In reality I think I probably look more like when Good Willow was pretending to be Evil Vampire Willow (not to be confused with Darth Rosenberg) in Dopplegangland. Me trying to be all sultry and badass is just funny.

also: no details until they develop, but I may have a job interview tomorrow. Possibly. Not definitely. But if that happends, it's home early and off to sleep for little me.

And to add to [livejournal.com profile] antheia's halloween songs list, here are my favorite Halloween songs:

"Season of the Witch" - Donovan
"Strange Brew" - Cream
"Don't fear the reaper" - Blue Oyster Cult
"Spooky" - Classics VI (which actually mentions halloween!)

For years I tried to use the holiday as an excuse to get all sultry.

It doesn't work. Je n'ai pas (?) the attitude.

You are so right.

"Oh right. Like me and Oz play mistress of pain every night."
"Did anyone else go to a scary visual place just now?"

Exactly. ::NODS::

Spring chicken Willow sounds good to me.

Oh now see, "Season of the Witch" is a true [Yeah-I'm-lookin'-at-you-Kate] classic. Your lameness is redeemable yet.

*grins* why thank you! This gives me hope...

(although lameness is almost never redeemable.)
