Look at me go!
I got really excited 'cause that pine tree kind of looked like an umbrella. And it also had it's own walking stick.
Went to Skylands Manor yesterday to walk around in the botanical gardens (OMG I want to live there). I rambled for like an hour and a half, maybe a bit more. it was lovely and cool out AND IT'S REALLY STARTING TO SMELL LIKE AUTUMN!!!
There's something about autumn that just sets my nerves on hyperdrive. And I mean that in a good way. In the best way. Maybe it's because I really effing hate summer. Autumn and winter are where it's at - the weather gets cool and breezy, the best clothes are in fashion again, there's my birthday (::AHEM::) on September 21st, Halloween, Thanksgiving, and Christmas. I know they're filled with crap food, but I really do love the holidays. I love decorating and baking and playing all the gay little Christmas songs and just being as gay as Christmas in general.
Like seriously, come autumn I get high on life.
And I got slightly high yesterday on my walk. There was that damp-leaves smell, and there was something about the way the evening light hit the edge of the woods that just said, "Back the f*ck off, summer!!"
Still at 100 lbs. Aside from the 90-minute walk, yesterday I also burned around 700 working out in the basement. I ate: turkey bacon (30), soft-boiled egg (70), iced coffee (50), cold cuts (80), and then made a dinner of stir-fried veggies and chicken (I estimated my portion as >400, just to be safe - 'twas probably quite a bit less). So total for the day was about 630 before factoring in the exercise.
Planning lots of fun things for the coming month!
- Horror movie fest in Gettysburg, PA on September 4th (screenings of new horror films, and PINHEAD IS ACTUALLY GOING TO BE THERE!)
- Renaissance Faire in Tuxedo, NY on Spetember 12th, as a combo birthday celebration for myself and a friend.
- Friend's wedding
- HALLOWEEN PARTY!! I can't decide between these two costumes:
OR...
It's a tough call. I have a lot of accessories already for Marie Antoinette and it's definitely awesome, but it's also a lot more expensive than Leeloo.
i lovvvvvvvvvvvvvve the second one.
ReplyDeleteleelo is amazing from the fifth element.
sounds like happy things!
i'm so ready for fall too!

haha dude are you serious about the costumes? :D Theyre so different. I <3 the fifth element! I'd wear the first one though. Depends where you're going... I'm Nicole btw, i'm a crap follower cos i hardly ever comment. You sound like my kinda person :) i like your opinion about autumn. x
ReplyDeleteo yay for hiking :)
ReplyDeletehmm the customes are so different from each other
You sound happy! That's great! Keep it going! <3
ReplyDeleteAs for the costume, I have a thing for big, puffy, glamorous dresses. But if it's more expensive, I'd say go for Leelo :]
Good luck! I'm sure you'll look slamming in either of them, as usual :P
LEELOO LEELOO LEELOO!!
ReplyDeleteI love that movie. And you can legitimately say "Leloo Dallas Multipass" without anyone thinking you're a freak.
xx
Hahahahaha yes, I forgot about the multipass!!! I'm def doing LeeLoo now.
ReplyDeleteOMGOMGOMG LEELOO DALLAS MULTIPASS!!!!
ReplyDeleteI love Autumn too! I just noticed that the days are getting longer here. It's no longer still pitch black when I leave for work in the morning, it's more like dawn or just after. I think the transitional seasons (Spring and autumn) are the best.
xoxo, good luck sorting your costume XD
Haha, you are so cute!
ReplyDeleteAnd I'm voting for the first one, only cos I like those kinds of dresses. But if the other is easier, definantely go for it. I like it as well. :)
<3
