Blog Halloween Edition (More humour and blood!!)
Now Playing: with Two Ghost named bob.
Topic: Work Rants
First off, HAPPY FUCKIN HALOWEEN PEOPLE!! Due to the occasion I am sitting in my USH Zone (I’m not defining that, you should all know by now) in a bleach costume that I made yesterday. Oh! It should be noted that this is the 100th post on this blog *applauses* We need to have cake *virtual cake is passed out* EAT UP!! Mmm…pretend cake….*droll* Anyways, On to the post!

Heather’s adventures in cosplay!

Ah, the joys and sorrow that only cosplay can inflict—usually more of the latter (in my opinion). I actually went completely mad yesterday attempting to make the pants for my Death God costume (think samurai pants).

SIDENOTE: If it ever crosses your mind to make pants instead of purchasing them…SLAP yourself several times and walk your creative ass to the mall! ‘cause it’s NOT WORTH IT! Oh, you’ll be all satisfied with yourself that you made something (possible saving yourself a few bucks) but really you’ll just be a cracked shell of your former self.

Lori came down as I was trying to figure out what piece of the pant connects to another piece (there were four pieces). VERY complicated process when your fabric is dark, huge, all the same color and the pattern you're using was drawn with a yellow highlighter. I was attempting to pin the crack of the ass part when I just lost it! Like really cracked--I snapped. This was after 10 hours of sewing, fucking up, taking the seam out, then re-sewing, and then fucking up again. I just went screw ball crazy! I mean laughing like a mad woman crazy! Lori joined in because she thought I’d lost it (which I had) and it even got Mich to come up from the dank hole and inquire to what was my “issue” I couldn’t inform her that I was having a nervous break down ‘cause I was cook-cook crazy laughing at the moment.

The laugh fit (along with crazy eyes and body twitches) lasted about 20 minutes. You’d think after that I’d be rejuvenated and ready to tackle the pants BUT we live in the real world where all that fancy heart-felt movie magic crap don’t exist so really I was right back where I started with less of my sanity and no really direction or reason to live.

Oh, you want to know about the finished product, well I over-estimated the crack of my ass (which was really one of the main causes of the aforementioned melt-down.) therefore, I can’t run, or briskly walk because the crutch of the pants is about 5 inches from the floor (seriously) but seeing as they’re 20 times to big and black you don’t really notice HURRAY dark fabric that’s hiding my fuck up!

So, you have to picture me right now, the ONLY person in a costume sitting in my cubical trying not to make eye contact 'cause I just can't take another "what are you supposed to be." This whole Idea of dressing up sounding better in my head.

That Religious Guy

When I posted the blog on my Co-workers I forgot this guy--really he was just a no-name on my radar but seeing as he decided to enter my USH zone and converse with me today he’s now included and dubbed “That’s Religious Guy” Now, first off, to save myself the bible thumper backlash I have NOTHING (please make a note of that on your What Would Jesus Do stationary) against religious people. BUT (big but) when you come over and start a conversation with a dressed up co-worker on the evils of Halloween I’m going to think you’re a bit on the coo-coo side. Umm...I’m dressed up, I’m eating Rocket candy, and I’m mum..ahin’ every thing you say so you’ll go away and you think I’m going to agree with you that Halloween is all about devil worship and Satanism, riiiiight. Big clue buddy, can’t see how you missed it HELLO, I’M IN A COSTUME!! *sigh* I was laughing inside, mostly, but then he said something that made me do an “OH no you didn’t!”

Me: ah, umm..*nod*
Religious Guy: and you know it’s all devil worship!
Me: um-uh *roll eyes*
Religious Guy: it’s getting bad with Wicca and all this devil stuff
INNER ME: *blink blink* WHAT! Rewind! oh, you didn't just say that!!

Apparently, I must have missed that verse in the bible where Jesus denounced tolerance of others. Let’s all be Judgmental and ignorant ‘because that’s what Jesus would do! Moron *groan* Like it would kill him to research a bit and find out that Wicca has NOTHING to do with the devil (sorries, sorries, Former Wiccan here, still have that boo-to-fundamental-Christians thing).

I'm a dumb ass

All in all, today has been fun...well other than forgetting my wallet and having to beg Jeanie to come give me some money 'cause I didn't bring a lunch. I take back anything bad I EVER said about you, Jeanie (not that I ever did *goes to edit some pervious posts*) You're the best!! *eats her veggie patty* mmmmmm.....
