i'm in love with a zombie

complete with droplets of rain!

there's a lot going on in this little brain of mine and you know what is a great distraction? yes, shopping. seeing as it was payday recently and it's been far too long since i've bought stupendously irrelevant things, i figured i'd better get back into the habit before i forget how to spend money altogether and end up becoming a real life grown up and saving some. shopping alone is wonderful:  there's no time limit, you can ignore everyone to the sultry sounds of atomic kitten and you don't have anyone talking you out of buying overpriced ps3 games.

everyone scream in our town of halloween

that cape did me well

okay it's not halloween but i'm revealing the winners of the giveaway tomorrow so we're having a pre-halloween party (pralloween?) right now because i just won't have time otherwise. using the term "party" very loosely because really it's just a string of a bad decisions i've made in relation to dressing up for work tomorrow. bear in mind i will be around plenty of 0-4 year olds who, last year, did not react well to my all too real portrayal of count dracula. white face and cape in tow. sorry little ones.

pick my petals off and make my heart explode

little bear helping me write

do you know what? today's been okay by all accounts. i woke up in a stinker of a mood and mentally prepped myself for a day of frustration and anxiety but instead, it's turned into the utmost productive and simultaneously relaxed day in a while. my "good" mood might be short lived but at least it's been lived in at all thus i'm taking this happiness and running with it so i can write you something that won't make you want to go bridge jumping as much as my past few slithers of fury.
