joke's on me

i came to work dressed in my halloween nines this morning. i was a bit worried when i didn't see anyone wearing their costumes as i walked from the parking lot. i comforted myself by thinking that maybe they were in a different department. then i saw my labmates and no one else is dressed up except for me! :( this is one of my biggest fears.

i went as a cute witch. i guess it could be a harajuku style witch because there's a petticoat and little hat. hopefully there will be pictures up soon!

i can't wait to wear it again to take my nephew trick-or-treating tomorrow. i hope he loves it. my sister is camera-happy so i will definitely have pictures. :D

OT, i finally got some burt's bees lip balm but not the right one. i got the "replenish" one because it had a red cap and it said "NEW" on the container. it doesn't have clove oil in it but it does have pomegranate oil. i thought that maybe you were crazy and you meant this one but i just looked it up on the internet and you were right. i am going to have a seizure if i don't get the medicated one soon. i love this one though, my lips are always chapped and peeling but they became so soft and supple even after the first application. i have the lip shimmers but the replenish one works so much better. anyway, i think about this way too much because i'm in whole foods several times a week. i don't think i'll be able to stop until i get the right one!

I second lecontact's question. Also, in cases like these, all you have to do is walk confidently and be like "wut? I'm fabulous." when people stare.

i never dress up in public (except for the weekend before, of course) for fear of this.

cdc's department of laboratory sciences had their first annual chili cookoff and costume contest today! i guess they had it today instead of tomorrow because that was when the EPA was supposed to do their walk through. they cancelled it last minute though.
