i'm almost finished with the dress, i've finished most of the jewelry(fake gold, lol), and need to get the sandals done.

i made my wreath to go in my hair and i think it looks pretty good for plastic fake ivy + gold paint. :rofl:

1. That DOES look good for plastic ivy + gold paint.
I spent several hours (that I won't ever get back) rearranging the Roman headpieces, and that looks better than anything we've got. :P

How you doing? :shrug:

5. I'm good... I got a cough about 3 weeks ago that's still here a little
but I am well besides. :)

I've been working retail, so my feet are sore. :P

It's fun though, so I don't mind so much. :)

7. I have never worked retail before
and most people are pretty cool. There have been a couple of bad apples, but as the owner of the store says, "Here the customer is NOT always right!"

At least with retail, the problem customers take up maybe an hour of your time, while when you work in an office you can literally have YEARS of your time taken up by assholes. :P

But yeah, I'm not much of a people person either. :pals:

I can pretend to be for 10 minutes at a time though! :)

8. Nice.
I heart gold spraypaint. :) Handy when I used to make lightsabers and sell 'em on eBay.

(just prop lightsabers, not the real thing. :P )

9. That looks good!
I'm not going trick-or-treating, but I'm going to a costume party. Still have to finish the top for my costume... Going as a character from a manga series I like.
