Food, Costume, etc.

I am so full. I ate at Souplantation. It's the Southern Californian version of Fresh Choice. So very full, so very happy.

For those who didn't see it in person, here's what my Halloween costume looked like:


Yeah, I was Medusa. The funniest thing was when someone else showed up in a Medusa costume. How mortifying (literally)! We had a snake-off.


All I want to do is take a nap. Perhaps I can do that later under my desk. I mean, what are they going to do, fire me?! HAHAHA.

I would never have guessed that Medusa would be so popular.

Send me your address in L.A.

Yay! You look great! (and very scary.)

I hope you got a nap. =o)

Lalena was medusa as well. Perhaps you are all sister gorgons?

No WAY! I've got to see a photo!! :)

Maybe it's the sisterhood of wild curly hair. Sooner or later, it just naturally forms into a nest of snakes! :)

I know — and here I thought I was being all original! Greek mythology's so in, though. I should post the pic of me kneeling at the feet of the goddess Artemis! ;)

Thank you. It took some hustling to get it to look good — the dress was still bouncing around in the dryer after its dye bath 10 minutes before party time. But yes, I won the snake-off... ;)

No photos that I am aware of. I'll ask.

[identity profile] aceofkittens.livejournal.com 2005-11-03 12:15 am (UTC)(link)
Thank you. :) I could have gone into battle against the teen and the small ninja! :)

No nap as of yet - beating back the overwhelming urge to lie down with coffee.

Great picture! I had no idea what you looked like, so I'm very happy to know that you are an attractive girl with snakes in her hair. :-)

Seriously...love the costume. And I hope you kicked the other Medusabitch's ass.


(Oh...and for the record, you are the second LJ friend that I saw a picture of for the first time today. The first, has been on my friends list for almost a year!)

Were you Jack again? :)

I actually had someone ask me, "Are you Medusa, or one of the other sisters, Sthenno and Euryale?" It made up for the 20 times I had to explain the costume to other people. :)

That's a great costume! Clever.. I can't believe someone else came as Medusa.

[identity profile] kingcadillac.livejournal.com 2005-11-03 12:31 am (UTC)(link)
I was. I need a new costume but I lack dinero.

I'm impressed that someone knew their gorgons well enough to know the Tito and Germane.

[identity profile] aceofkittens.livejournal.com 2005-11-03 12:37 am (UTC)(link)
Don't you think I look a little green, though? ;)

Really, you hadn't seen a photo? You should have said something! Of course, there are a lot in my past entries, so you just haven't stalked me well enough. :) Although, I am still having DNS issues with the server they were on, so all the pics may be pointing to the wrong address and coming up empty. I will have to Check That Out! :)

There's more here (http://www.masq.org/~endora/photos/sixguns.jpg) and another here (http://www.masq.org/~endora/photos/NaturalBornLaptop.jpg)... :)

Thanks! And, I know. That's crazy! Of course, there was that one year that I was a "Black Eyed 'P'" and someone else showed up in the same costume. We duked it out also. :)

I was impressed too. I wouldn't have known their names off the top of my head, especially not in an intoxicated state. :)

you look hot and scary!

[identity profile] aceofkittens.livejournal.com 2005-11-03 04:02 am (UTC)(link)
Are you sure you weren't already stoned? :)

[identity profile] cohen7.livejournal.com 2005-11-03 04:04 am (UTC)(link)

Great Costume!

actually pandora hosted the party. whether she hosed it is really not for me to say.

[identity profile] bluesilverkdg.livejournal.com 2005-11-03 11:39 pm (UTC)(link)
I personally think you look pretty good in green. Not many people can pull that off! ;-P

I had never seen a photo of you. I guess I suck at stalking (although there are probably some men out there who would beg to differ.) So thanks for sharing! I love pictures!

[identity profile] aceofkittens.livejournal.com 2005-11-04 04:07 am (UTC)(link)
Wow, that's so cool! I've always wanted to have a folklore & mythology costume party. I should have done it when I was surrounded by folklorists. We could all have been been super pedantic and had an "erudite-off" (or perhaps Eurydice-off)! :)

Re: Great Costume!

Heheheh! :) *looks innocent* Yes! Send me the other stills! And I want to see the video!
