Blah Blah Blahg: The one with some of my thoughts and tips on Halloween

Drum roll for the pumpkin results paleaaaaseee…

Shout out to ma sista sista Mad for making me this little picture stitchure.

Winner is:

1 (Globe): +++++++

2 (Haunted House): +++++++++++++

3 (Mississippi): ++

4 (Owl/Pikachu): +++++

5 (Ghosts): ++++++

6 (Lyceum):+

Congrats. New kid, you did me proud. Really. I just would have been really bitter had the globe or Mississippi won. Why? Because Mississippi only worked on his for .5 seconds and Globe was my stiffest crafty competitor AND went out and bought special tools. Granted, I wasn’t the greatest competitor, regardless. My owl was UG (for being an owl), but it did get more votes than the Lyceum (ha… ha) the first vote of which was my sweet mommy’s.

Just when you think all hope is lost, your mom tells you you’re special. Thanks, ma.

And thanks to everyone who voted. That was fun. Awful for my self esteem, but fun nonetheless. Maybe we’ll do it again. Or maybe not. Or maybe once I find something else I’m “good at” I’ll have a competition involving that. Good?

On a different Halloween note, we watched Children of the Corn last night. Have you seen that movie? Okay, don’t. It’s weird as X. (Replace X with whatever profanity you want. My grandparents read my blahg.) Seriously. I wanted to be scared and I WASN’T. Not even a little. But was I weirded the heck out? Yes. 500%. First scene is just old-people-drinking-coffee’s heads getting cut off by creepy children—one of which is a ginger—and I normally really like gingers and I DEFINITELY like old people and coffee. Bottom line is: don’t. watch.

Even my own DEAR friends are
succumbing to the sexy press. (pressure.)

Lastly, I thought I’d share my thoughts on sexy Halloween creature costumes even though most people seem to be set on their ways on this topic.

(Similarly to how all of my Facebook friends are suddenly extreme Democrats or extreme Republicans with EXTREME opinions and political knowledge….)

Anyway, WHY IS THAT A THING? If you want to be sexy, can’t you just BE sexy?? Why do you have to wait until Halloween to turn yourself into a kitten or a mouse or a dishwasher or a waitress and then put SEXY before your description? I don’t know about you, but I’m sexy by nature. I don’t need October 31 to make it offish. Nor do I need to tell you I’m sexy. If you’re sexy, you’re sexy. I don’t walk around saying, “Hi. I’m sexy Gabrielle.” So, I feel you don’t need to walk around on Halloween saying, “Hi. I’m sexy Batman.”

People will know if you’re sexy. Believe me. But if you need some inspiration from the many sexy faces of me through the years, here's for you:
