Halloween party confession/vent

mrs_j_may_08 · October 2011

I am not excited to go at all. I don't even care to try and find a costume. I know I could borrow one from a friend, but then I'd just be sober, uncomfortable in a costume and tired. Blah. Everyone will be drinking and playing games and such and I am so not looking forward to it.

This is so 'not me,' I love dressing up and Halloween but I just can't get into it this year. I was going to get the cute skeleton shirt that everyone has, but procrastinated. I told DH that tonight I will be dressing as a 16w pregnant lady, ha.

Okay, end rant.

I'm not dressing up because we didn't get my costume made in time. Also, the lady only cut a yard of fabric not a yard and a half. We are just gonna wait and be the Flitstones next year. Toot is still gonna be Pebbles though.

I'm feeling the same way. Plus it's really nasty out, and I know we'll never find a cab. The party we're going to is at a bar I find too crowded and loud when I'm drunk, so it's going to be really bad sober.

Flintstones is a great family costume! DH and I were Wilma & Fred a few years ago and they were so easy to make since they are supposed to be kinda ragged looking anyways! I even bought a red wig! So fun!

I'll be the biker from the Village People tonight, complete with vinyl top & pants, biker jacket, hat and gloves. AND!! The handlebar mustache. We'll have a group of about 10-12, going to a bar in Hollywood. Normally I'd be pumped, super excited and I am. I haven't been out since my birthday in February! So I'm aching to really get out. But, I've been dead tired by 9:30 or so every night, my eyes being in pain to stay open. I'll be the DD, which I'm fine with but match being the sober one, with 10-12 drunks, tiiiiired, and DH has an early flight tomorrow which I'm dropping him for. I see a nap in my future today and I hope hope hope I can stay awake tonight. I'm really aching for some great music to dance to at least one last time before I start getting big and uncomfortable, and I have the chance tonight. I'll post pictures later.

I am wearing one of those pregnant skeleton shirts tonight - But I have been having a heck of a time getting into the spirit of things too... fall and winter are my favorite time of year... but I am concentrating so hard on getting the room and closet cleaned out for LO that I havent given much else any energy or thought. Plus - I am so overwhelmed at school and home that I just am exhausted by the time I walk in the door.

I think DH realized that it was pretty serious when he asked (and he never asks) if I wanted to decorate the house just a little bit inside and out for Halloween, and I told him not this year - I am too exhausted... He actually put stuff out for me. I slept one afternoon and he just unpacked some stuff. It was really sweet.

I might be more excited... but last night we were downtown in the city watching game 7 of the WS and the Cardinals won and the city was going nuts. It was amazing to be there! We rushed into the stadium and it was a late night. I admitted to DH that it might have been a little more fun if I had a bit of a buzz going as I was so tired towards the end. I'm just not looking forward to being the only sober one 2 nights in a row... maybe I'll get out of my funk soon and not be a party pooper!

I was excited to go out last night, but I definitely took one for the team by staying up so late. I didn't want to ruin DH's fun, so we were at a party until 1:30am - I ended up telling him that we have to leave NOW because I was starting to get physically ill from being so tired.

I just woke up from a 4 hour nap, so I think I'm a little bit more prepared for tonight's antics!

I knew I would not be in the mood to be around everyone else as they have a good time (ie mainly drinking, etc) plus the smell, so I signed up to work this weekend instead.

I made an oven with a bun in it out of a box - it took hubby and I about an hour

BigAppleBiggerBelly · October 2011

I confess I only made an appearance for about an hour and a half before I left husband abd friends at the bar and hopped the subway home alone. I'm so glad I did because he didn't get home until almost 5AM! I was happily curled up in my slanket with a mug of tea and a bad horror film by 1AM.
