Sindy's Blog - October 23, 2003

Last weekend at Dad's was a lot more bearable. We mostly just hung out - dad didn't try to force things so it went a lot smoother. This whole situation is so strange. I don't really want things to get too comfortable at my dad's new place cuz that would mean that the 'rents aren't getting back together. But then again, I don't want to dread going to my dad's all the time either and I have a feeling there's no real hope of mom and dad making up. They've made up their minds.

Enough of that depressing stuff! I have been racking my brain to come up with the ultimate Halloween costume and I think I might have it - thanks to all you peeps out there who gave me your suggestions. What do ya'll think of Emily the Strange dressed as a vampire? It's fairly easy - lots of black, a little bit of red and a whole lot of spooky. I was thinking of sewing up a ramshackle stuffed cat to carry around with me (like one of Emily's many furry friends). Of course I would have good ol' vamp teeth and probably a high collared cape. I've just gotta start putting my costume together already. Halloween is less than 10 days away!

I actually don't know what I'm doing for Halloween though. There will definitely be some trick-or-treating but who knows what's going on after that. I managed to weasel out of heading to dad's this weekend so I could fully enjoy my Halloween plans but now I don't really have any! I better get on that.

On top of getting my costume together there is so much to do for the play right now. Props still haven't been finished and we're still digging around for costumes. The show starts in just two weeks and so much has to be done. No one else seems to be panicking yet, so I'm assuming this is the norm with drama stuff. I can't imagine what opening night is going to be like! Oh yeah and I got to stare (subtly, of course) at that cute guy three times this week! Score!
