I always want to have a reason to dress up for Halloween, but it seems like most years nothing's happening.  And this year, things were definitely not coming together.  I had wanted to have a party at my place, but we never could manage to get rid of the boxes that are taking up half of the dining room and I simply refuse to try to have a party amongst the mess.  Maybe next year.  In the meantime, no one else seemed to plan anything either. 

And I'd just come to the conclusion that nothing was happening and started to look forward to at least being able to hand out candy for the first time in years.  And then, yesterday, a friend of mine invited me to a party out of the blue. 

So, now I have to try and think of a costume in a week - when they're notoriously sold out and it's a short amount of time to make anything (not like I can actually sew anyway).  Oh man I'm feeling so uncreative right now.
