I added a bit to my costume before Halloween proper.  I didn't get a pic of it all together, but it is as above, plus these leggings:


I love them enough that I sort of want to just wear them when I am not dressed as Ursula.

Carl- Thanks! I've spent way too much time on Pinterest, so some of my examples are just stunning.
JW- Yes! I stopped by my parents' house after the party and my dad said, "Is this some character I don't know about?"  :roll:

I've ended up going through a bunch of my old pictures. So, huge post incoming.

at ten:


at eleven:

I was wearing fezzes before fezzes were cool.

At twelve I got glasses and a cat which I named Awwdabooboo:



the next few years resulted in me wearing a lot of black and being awkward and tall:



I wore flip flops a lot. More than anyone ever should:



I found a car at some point:





Just a few days after I turned 16. My mother threw me out of the house; this is me in a greyhound station.



I ended up moving back to Tennessee after that.



I lost weight after moving back to New York around seventeen. I tried to spend time with family:



I was in a band at some point.



At some point, I just ended up looking sad in every picture. I was still living with my father.



I cut my hair off, and started living as a girl just after my 20th birthday.



I lost about 80 pounds all in all.



I moved to Washington, where I grew my hair out again.



I got stabbed in the face not too long ago, and then in a fit of drunken pique, I cut my hair off. Results!



I'm turning 22 in two weeks. The idea terrifies me.

Don't worry about 22 - it's not that different from 21 or even 23.

because she's a crazy bitch

she hears voices she attributes to god (which apparently told her I was going to kill her in her sleep), and looking back at how all of my interactions with her have gone I have zero doubt in my mind that she's borderline. she's done the same thing to my brother and also to my step-father.

I don't talk to her anymore.

ETA: I meant to caption this but posted and ran off and forgot. I've started wearing makeup again for the first time in a long time; I got tired of people asking me why my face was red. It's rosacea or something, I dunno. I do feel better about myself when I wear makeup though. The shirt is one I designed for our poker company, pretty pleased with it. Also, this is one of the first pics of me in a long time that I've felt okay with posting as-is. I used to Photoshop myself down a size or two. Losing thirty pounds has made a world of difference.

My boyfriend and I have a week where we're only five years apart instead of six, which makes him more comfortable. Not an issue with us any more but he appreciated it when I turned twenty.

Wait. I'm turning 22 in four weeks. And I was absolutely sure that you've lived a much longer life than I have.

Although in some way, that's probably true regardless of time elapsed.

I didn't say I feel old, I said that the idea of getting older terrifies me. I'm young. I recognise this fact as true. But that doesn't stop the years from having passed by so goddamn fast that I feel like I'm hurtling towards death, that I could die at any moment, and I still haven't done a single thing I'm really proud of. I feel like I've barely survived, that I've somehow managed to half-crawl, half-drag myself to where I am today, and it can all be taken away in a single moment.

...wait, am I having a midlife crisis? I'm too young for this shit!

Albany is usually desolate for AHL games (it's a HUGE arena for a minor league team), and a Monday afternoon game didn't help facts at all.

btw, nice R2D2 mickey hat!

In the Disney photos? It's a pin lanyard. One of the 'must-do's' of Disney parks is collecting pins. Buy a starter set, and then trade the stock pins for all the cool unique ones that the staff have. I collect mostly Stitch pins. The three most visible ones on the R2-D2 hat photo are: a Stitch head, a maple leaf Mickey, and a 2010 year pin. I also try to snag a year pin for every year I visit, which is '10 and '12 so far. Never thought I'd be one to enjoy Disneyworld (largely because of the crowds, and not a big Disney fan), but it's actually pretty awesome.

Bonus points!
