This is how a Witch holds her hand when she's ready to cast a spell. (or something...cause we kept doing this pose all night?)
Oh Happy Halloweenie to all. What a fright fest...I tell ya! I was officially initiated into the "Witchie-Poo" sorority this year. It is quite the coveted spot. I should know, because I am actually the only one and true 'new' girl that actually DID her initiation. Oh yeah...Katie Nichol will claim she did too. But guess what hers was...? She had to find someone for me to kiss (the only single witch of the bunch). Umm..sounds more like a 2nd initiation for ME! I had my revenge though as I cast spells of gravity and menopause on those old witchie-poos all night!
"The Itsy Bitsy Spider" sung witchingly good was how I came to be accepted into the group. And it was performed at Sapphire in Laguna no less. Somehow I always end up in the position of being the funny ( I never know if they're laughing at or with??) obnoxious girl that everyone resorts to for a good time. (I don't know...do you think guys find that attractive?? Mama says they don't.) But we surely did have a great time. I'm already prepping for next year's adventure. And next year there will be some new recruits. Lindsey, my mom, Katie Hoffman, Debbie Lark, and maybe even Lindsey's new baby girl she'll have by then. Then the URE family could represent the oldest, youngest, and most single Witchies of them all. (Just teasing mom - I'm pretty sure those other gals are way older than you!)
Then for the actual night of fright - the 31st - I was perplexed as to what skanky outfit I could pull off for a night. Maybe an "adult" rendition of a French maid? No---how about a sexy nurse with thigh highs and all. Yeah...you see... somehow girls in general...even the '364' days a year modest dressers' (I'm talking sweet 'ol MoMo's) seem to think that this night is their free card to be as barely dressed as they can. I'm talking lingerie to the max, and then calling it a "costume." Well..if you know me at all by now - you know I happen to be on quite the opposite end when it comes to baring it all (well on purpose that is).
So I was thrilled to grab a lovely white sheet, cut a few holes in it, and call it a ghost! Best costume yet! I mean I've had some good ones...but this...genius!! It was awesome. Nobody knew who I was, so I danced how I wanted with who I wanted all night long. All I could hear the boys saying was, "I just hope this ghost is a girl - cause it just grabbed my rear!" I even had a few scantily clad ladies try to get me to unveil my face to them. I finally had to tell them, "Yo -I'm a girl...you might not want to keep flirting with me." They replied that I didn't sound like one and I told them I have a deep voice and if they needed proof I could help them out. They were a little embarrassed I think. It might be because I finally told them I was of their own kind after like 2 hours of them asking me to come hither as they batted their eyes and made sure their lingerie was revealing all they hoped it would. (I may have led them astray cause I kept staring at them all night. I have a staring problem I'll admit - and I was amazed at the courage they had to come to a Mormon party dressed like that. So looked I did... behind that white sheet of confidentiality!) It was pretty classic I'll admit.
It was a month of horrors through and through. Even pirate watching was the theme for my friend Brock's birthday. We had crazy day at school, a fair (I got dunked by every student there I think....I threatened them to watch their backs during recces next week! I was going to seek revenge.) Now it's onto a hopefully more mellow month of pure thankfulness.
