I am BEYOND happy that it is finally October. I am a cold weather person. I can't help it, I'm still Northern at heart. You wouldn't think that St. Louis weather would be that different, but it REALLY is. I like summer, but I'm miserable more than half the time that I am outside, so I can't truly enjoy myself. Plus, I'm fair so I burn easily and that's no fun. I don't know, I can't really explain the effects cold weather has on me. For example, one day last week (Thurs. maybe?) the weather was absolutely gorgeous. It was sunny, mid 60's, and windy. I was giddy with joy the entire day. Most of my friends were complaining about how cold it was and how they wish they had a jacket...... I, on the other hand, am going out of my way to be outside as much as posible and of course I'm wearing a sleeveless top. But that's how I am in cooler weather..... giddy. That's the word, cold weather makes me giddy. I remember it was a year ago that I was talking to Aimee Davis in the art room about how excited I was about it being October. I work at Hot Topic in the Stones River mall in M'boro and every weekend we have to wear a costume. I'm glad I have a lot of costumes that i've made over the years because it will be costume crazy/hell for me. Oh listen to this. My friend Beth's b-day is next weekend so she's having a costume party......... Well, there's 5 of us as friends and we've decided to dress up as 5 out of 6 of the village people but obviously, a lot more feminine. Well here's the funny part..... I'm the biker. So since I work at H-Topic and get a discount, I bought this patent leather black corset. This is going to be one of the funniest things. I'll be sure to post some pictures of us all dressed up.
