    Badly photoshopped spoopy icon? Check.
    pumpkin flavored everything? Check. (PSA, Dunkin Donuts has pumpkin shots and they are SO. GOOD.)
    Already planning my post-halloween grab-all-the-50%-off-tacky-decorations-at JoAnne's-I-can? Check, check, check!


    (does anyone else do that? I have collected more dumb halloween decorations, fabric, and baking supplies than I will ever use because 1) it is halloween themed and 2) it is stupid cheap and 3) I am weak and cannot resist the siren song of black and orange.)

    I have a couple BPAL testers that a friend gave me. And they smell great. They just.......don't last. Like at all.

    slightly related, I have never heard of AE Houseman but I think he is my new favorite poet. (cw on that last one for suicide)

    I'm Head Bone.

    This one is also gr8 (garnet confirmed for the goffest gem, apparently)

    ANYWAY YES HAMULEEN. I fucking LOVE Halloween, okay. I have a glittery Halloween sign hanging up on my bedroom door year-round (I'll attach a pic in a bit), and I go all-out with my costumes, even though I tend to go for more nerdy than spoopy. This year I'm gonna be Serena, the female player character from Pokemon XY!

    [​IMG]
    (The local used game store is having a costume contest, and with Sun and Moon coming out in November I thought it'd be fitting. c:)

    My favorite Halloween costume I've ever done, though? Aradiana Jones. I cosplayed a character cosplaying a different character, and had a total blast. It came out really well, too!
    [​IMG]

    I also still love trick-or-treating downtown, even though I know I'm too old for it. It's just so much fun, and it's awesome to see people of all ages in their costumes having a great time! Really, for me, Halloween is largely about getting to be a kid again--my mom always described modern-day Halloween as basically being "a celebration of childhood," and I agree with that.

    And fall weather? Hell. Fucking. Yes. It gets UNGODLY hot here in the summer, and the somewhat more reasonable weather we get from about mid-September onwards is SUCH a relief. Hopefully we'll actually get some rain this year, though I'd just assume it not happen on Halloween proper. x_x (That happened one year--MASSIVE downpour on Halloween and @Neurogabu and I got stuck in it on our way to the barely-covered bus stop. Not the kind of Autumnal Funtimes I was hoping for!) But yeah, I'm looking forward to getting to wear cute sweaters and boots and such! I even have a really adorable fuzzy gray one with a bat on it, which is just so perfectly October, I can't wait to get to wear it again. :D

    Also, seconding everyone who expressed love for the salted caramel mocha at Starbucks. That shit is my jam. I always ask for it with a little extra salt, personally. It adds to the tastiness somehow.

    tl;dr your name is ACEY and YOU FUCKING LOVE HALLOWEEN
