Black to Basics

tank: Forever 21, bolero: H&M, pants: Jolt from Nordstrom, flats: Sam Edelman from Loehmanns in NYC

Oh Halloween, how I love you!  How much fun is it to get all dressed up in costume with a bunch of other people and hangout?!  I mean, seriously?  Best Holiday EVER!!!!! Plus, I heart seeing what other people dress up as.  Sometimes people are so clever!

Today my mama is taking me & the seestor out to dinner to celebrate Lin finishing her grad school apps and me getting cast in Threepenny!  And I get to meet their new kitten, Little Monster!  Yay!  Should be good times!  Sundays are awesome!

PS Dad, listen to Pam, that IS my hair in the last post, NOT a wig.  It's called hairspray and back-combing and it's not even that hard to do.  Listen to your wife.

Half & Half

tee: HBO Store, tank: Costco, pants: Jolt from Nordstrom, flats: Target, scarf: gifted, accessory:  silver necklace

Half in Halloween costume, half in Candy-mode, half in Gina... (yeah, that's too many halves, but just deal...)

Roomie's coming tonight!

Threepenny Opera

I was just offered the part of Lucy in Seattle Shakes' Threepenny Opera!  I just wanted to share with everyone.  I am so happy I am shaking and almost crying! Best Halloween Friday EVER!

Is It My Fault My Fangs Come Out When I Get Turned On?

tee: HBO Store, apron: HBO Store, skirt: H&M, flats: Target, wig: Amazon, fangs: Amazon

Oh Jessica Hamby!  You are so much fun to dress up as!  Who knew it could be so easy and that I would look so cute with long strawberry blonde hair!  I did, indeed, lose the fangs for work because, well, I really don't want to overplay them and come on!  It's daytime so she really wouldn't be out anyways...  But since they are part of the costume they are still in the picture (and in my bag...).  To be honest, I almost didn't wear most of it and if it had been raining I probably wouldn't be in the skirt, shoes or wig (also, who knows what this is doing to my hair?), but I had promised people that I would be in costume (and I think of this as a trial run), so I am.  Now, I just need to be careful not to spill on my white shirt before tonight...

Also, sorta makes last night's post seem obsolete, but I had promised the seestor that I would post my costume last night, so Lindy: that is all for you!

Tonight we start the second weekend of our run and I am SUPER excited!  It's PWYC this entire weekend too!  So, hopefully people will come out despite the Halloween-ness and enjoy our little play about one of the largest cash robberies in history.  Plus, I'm funny and everything I wear is see-thru (this was my line at the Gregory Awards when I was telling people about our show).

Halloween Hints pt 3

Jessica from True Blood in Merlotte's uniform (the actual Jessica in the top right & me in all the others)

I'm going to wear it to work tomorrow, but maybe with boots instead if it is raining.  I really like the wig now that I styled it to actually look like her hair.  Pretty good, right?  Right?!  And Dani is gonna be Sookie (SOOKAH!) and it is gonna ROCK!

W: November

Hmmm... the art issue with Kim Kardashian on the cover?  Really?  Although I hate her, I really do love the artwork by Barbara Kruger... Other than that article (on Kruger, not Kardashian) and one on Paul Reubens coming to Broadway as Pee Wee Herman(!) there really wasn't ANYTHING good in this issue... bummer.  Although I did heart a Hitchcock-ian fashion spread that's super film noir as you will see below.

Why?  Who knows... Love the words though...

I Just Voted, HAVE YOU?

When my hair is newly washed is when I most realize how LONG it is... and we're only into the second weekend of our 5-week run... YESH.  Hair appointment will be made the week after we close, for realzies.

My second do-nothing, relaxing night at home was also glorious.  I even did, like, 30 minutes of washing dishes completely cleaning out our sink.  It had been FAR too long... I def still need to clean my room (mostly just rehang up clothes and put my shoes back onto the rack--which I think might be on its last legs, to be honest... That thing is slowly dying shoe purchase by shoe purchase...), but I feel like cleaning out the sink is a BIG step in the right direction...

Pick-up rehearsal tonight.  Rock it!  Can't wait to see how it runs with the new cuts/shifts...

Also, I totes VOTED yesterday at lunch and mailed my ballot today!  It feels good to do my civic duty (and the Dems need ALL THE HELP they can get this midterm election), have YOU done YOURS?  VOTE!!!!! VOTE! VOTE! VOTE! VOTE! VOTE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ridic excited for Halloween this weekend (I might even rock my costume tomorrow at work just for funzies)! Seriously, fav holiday + awesome show + rockin' costume = HAPPY PANTS!  Also, totes forgot to do my last "halloween hint" last night... SORRY!  I will do one tonight if I get home fast or tomorrow post-work for sure-zies.

PS Did I mention REMEMBER TO VOTE?
