it seems like such a silly thing to get excited about but last night i was thrilled to have the house to myself.
usually on halloween i would have something planned but since i went to such a good party last weekend i felt i had already had my halloween experience for the year. mister L wanted to go see a play with the big boss but wanted to make sure i didnt feel neglected. i assured him i didnt and secretly counted the hours till they would both get out of the house.
dont get me wrong. i love em both to death but if there is one thing i really miss about being single it is having the house to myself for hours on end. i am not one of those people that needs to fill my waking moments with social activities, i rarely chat on the phone and i never have people over. i just really enjoy playing music, wandering around the house, playing with the cats, looking for costumes and puttering on photo projects. for whatever reason it just isnt as satisfying to do it with other people around.
everyone always says if i didnt find mister L i would have become one of those hermit ladies that lives in the woods and has a 100 cats. honestly i find that idea kind of appealing. cats dont talk too much and never leave wet towels on the floor, but to be fair you cant go places with them and they arent quite as much fun to sleep with as husbands. i guess it is a toss up.
i am thrilled that halloween is finally over though because now i can go to all the costume shops and but everything i want for the year on sale. i cooked up a new project that is going to require the skill of sacred, my favorite make up artist. it is going to be really gross. if we do it right it should make people down right nauseous. i cant fucking wait.

excellent party this weekend.
our friend sacred *really* gets into halloween and he bryan and barb all threw a party. they spent so much time getting the house together and it looked amazing. the entire front lawn was a graveyard, complete with hovering bats. inside were spooky lights, streamers and loads of things to snack on. sacred and i decorated his room as an homage to my bloody valentine and set up the movie room as a valentines dance. the basement was where all the real fun was at though. a full bar, a bloody bed, a satanic alter, poltergeist tv, and a fog machine. guests started to arrive on time and everyone was in costume. i knew a few people who were there from when bryan and i used to go out and mister L soon met several, including one very persistent gay man. i think he ended up spending most of the night running away from him and ducking into corners so as not to be seen. i know the man who was pursuing my husband, he had never been that agressive when i knew him. i am fairly sure he was activly trying to take me out of the picture for the night by giving me pills and trying to get me to drink to much and do coke with him. i didnt fall for it though, i pocketed the pill and stayed away from the powder entirely. i tried not to drink to much but i did get a little carried away with the jello shots. i was upstair and in bed by 2:30 while the rest raged on till about 4. as usual i am a party pooper. i am always one of the first to go to sleep. however, i was smart enough to go to sleep in a seperate room, unlike one of the other party guests who passed out, peed himself and woke up to find himself graffitied from head to toe. not the most imaginative thing to do to a passed out person, but always good for a laugh all the same.
we woke up in the morning in pretty bad shape. i felt a little wobbly and definately had a hang over. barb cheered us up with fluffy eggs and bacon and toast. i dont know why but that always makes me feel better. she asked me if i had a good time, and i sort of hedged, i was cranky and tired so i didnt think i had fun right then, but on reflection it was one of the best parties i had been to in a long time. certainly the best halloween party.
