It's Here...

My Halloween costume that is! And it is so cute! Now I'm really excited about Halloween, there is nothing like getting the costume to get me in the mood for real. Tonight we'll be bringing down the decorations (of which we have more than Christmas decorations) and I'll start decorating tomorrow evening. I can't wait!
About this costume, it's short, really short. It gives me a lot of motivation to work out like crazy for the next week and a half. I'm also trying to decide what shoes I should wear with it, T-strap heels or knee high boots? That is the question of the year! LOL and it's a critical decision, these things really matter. LOL

On to more serious matters. I got so mad while I was reading my Political Theory book today. I knew from the get go that it was going to be a really biased book and it has not disappointed. It is just ridiculous what it says about conservatives (and how conservatives invaded and occupied Iraq in 2001, yes that's right 2001!) and how Libertarians are the extreme of the right and that they want to go back to giving the wealthy all their wealth and power so that they can once again oppress the poor. What??? Seriously? That's not what Libertarians stand for, they just want government out of our business and that's really not such a bad thing. I think this person needs to have his head examined. Needless to say I got a lot of reading done but I was fuming the whole time LOL.

Two More Down...

And a lot more to go LOL. I just officially finished my last American Lit. class and not a moment too soon. I have the biggest headache now. That class had that affect on me. Friday I took the proctored final and he had stuff in there that he previously said was not going to be covered in the final so of course I didn't pay much attention to those selections. Grrr.... So now I'm just hoping for the best. I'm really worried about my grade in that class now so we'll see. I know I got an A in my other class. We'll see.

I also ordered my Halloween costume for this year and here it is:



Except for the boots, I'm not doing the thigh high boots, I'll probably do strapy sandals haven't decided yet. And I've decided that we'll most likely do like a trick or treat after party but now my husband is mad that he'll be at work that night, but it's the only night we have and he doesn't like Halloween anyway. Plus I told him that he's taken a day off to go to some one's goodbye dinner he can take a night off if he really wants to be here for the party. Like he never does anything fun when I'm at work.

Stressing

I've come to the conclusion today that I just can't have my yearly Halloween Party. :o( I am so sad. I really want to have it but I just don't have the time or the funds to do it right. I may just have people come over for a little after trick-or-treating get together on Halloween night.

I realized today that I have to sign up for next term like, today! I have to get the books and all ordered. I chose one but I can't make up my mind about the second class I want to take because I don't want to completely overload myself. I may just take the computer class and get it over with. But then I realized that tuition is due at the begining of next month, Yikes! I'm thinking I'll have to take out a student loan, which I really don't want to do but more than that I don't want to quit school again!

And now that my husband is on swings we're alone all evening and little man's boy scouts is going to conflict with my karate. grrr... every Thursday, I can't be missing every Thursday, those are test days. So we are going to have to work something out.

Well then, It feels so much better to let all that out! LOL

Date Night

The show tonight was great! I am so glad we went tonight. One of my friends ended up going with another one of her friends and we all went out to dinner first and then off to the theater. It was so nice to have an adults night and to go see a show again. We haven't been to the theater to see a live performance like that since we lived in Germany and went to the English Theater in Frankfurt, like 6 years ago. Now I was thinking I'd get one of the costumes from tonight's show for Halloween this year but after seeing them I don't think that's what I'm really looking for. Don't get me wrong, the costumes were fantastic but it's not really what I had in mind. I'll go see her next week and see them up close and see what else she has and then decide.

And speaking of Halloween, I'm thinking if my friend's band isn't going to play (which by the way they one first place in the singer/song writer contest at Arts in the Heart tonight! YAY! Language Arts is awesome!) I'm going to see about having a karaoke machine. LOL that would be so much fun! I'm thinking that might be the way we go because my dear old husband is not keen on having a band play at our house. I keep trying to tell him that it's not bad (they played at Nat's house last year for her birthday). He thinks that it's going to be really loud but they really aren't and it's just three people and they wouldn't be playing all night anyway. We'll see I still have a couple more weeks to decide before I print the invites anyway.

So anyhow, I didn't get much of anything accomplished today. I meant to go get a Georgia license (after living here for 5 years) and register to vote here and get my yard signs but none of that happened. I was up until 4am working on my midterm and I couldn't open my eyes until 11 this morning. By the time I finished my midterm I had to get ready to get my make up done. Adam did a fab. job, like always, and then I had to rush home and to finish getting ready.

I was thinking today that I might stay with my Florida license, just use my grandfather's address as my home of record, and I'm seriously thinking of voting through absentee ballot again this year. Polls show that McCain is far ahead in Georgia anyway and things are tight in Florida so I'm thinking of doing my part down there lol. I don't know though, ever since the 2000 election when Gore wanted the absentee ballots thrown out I've been left with a really bad taste in my mouth. I imagine that my vote just gets put to the side when it gets to its destination and forgotten. I'm going to think about that some more over the weekend. But I am going to see if the GOP office is open tomorrow when I'm down that way and get some yard signs. I've noticed more signs up in the last couple of days, all McCain signs, I saw some McCain/Palin signs up for the first time, but not the first Obama sign.
