13 Nights of Blogoween Day 13: Couple Costumes and Sexy Lobsters Have Ruined Halloween

I wrote this blog last year on November First... I'm not bitter about being single or not wearing sexy costumes... Its just a commentary meant to be taken lightly. 

Alrighty so this isn't really a rant... its just kind of a theory that couples have decided to take every holiday and make it their own and then single people are here like "Okay, we get it. You're happy. Can you leave us alone now? KThanks." And now they've ruined halloween.

Maybe this is just me being old but still not grown up enough to be in a real relationship... but seriously go to a bar on Halloween. There are like 10 Harley Quinns, 6 sexy lobsters, 3 Maleficents, one sexy minotaur and then the rest are all couples. If you find a character you're attracted to like Han Solo, you'll look around and find a Princess Leia right behind him!

And they're always RIGHT by them, you know why?  So they don't run off with a sexy lobster! Its a way to trick a guy into thinking that you're doing something cool, but really you're trying to ward off all the other girls from talking to him because that's right he's yours. You might as well take an iron and brand your name on his forehead!

But on the other hand, if you aren't doing a couples costume things can also go horribly wrong. Freshman year of college I was super hot and super skinny, which btw is totally a lie. I wasn't really that hot or skinny, but compared to me now... I was super hot and skinny. Wow that seems sad... I think my face and hair look better... but I was real cute back then. Anyway... back to the story.

So there was this guy that I was going to go to a party with and I was dressed all hot and he wore a scary mask... so we didn't match very well and yeah it looked awkward for me.

Also the guys that are single at bars are always dressed as something lame. Last year there was an Austin Powers... which would have been a cool costume if it was 1997... but it was far from that. So... yeah no. If you're dressed as Austin Powers or Borat... get updated on your comedy and dress as something better than that.

The one thing that the "grown up" halloweens have improved upon since college halloweens is there are less boner costumes. That really is the grossest thing in the entire world when there's a boner-themed costume. Ack. That's even worse than Austin Powers. If you think a guy with a boner costume is attractive, stop drinking. Just altogether, just give up drinking and get your life together. Unless its a dick in a box costume... that still makes me laugh.

And after saying all this if I ever do manage to be in a relationship on halloween, will I refuse a couple's costume... NO! Lol. I totally understand the necessity of them. I can't have my hypothetical man running away with a sexy lobster or something. I'm pretty sure I can't compete with that... although I'm sure that by dressing as a sexy lobster their trying to distract from the fact that they really have crabs. Lol.

Byeee! Have a fun and safe Halloween.

Disney Store Closing Haul

So if you read my post from yesterday- you know that I love The Disney Store, but it is unfortunately closing. I did pick up some things from the store that I thought I'd share with you guys! I did get a couple of t shirts. One is a Star Wars shirt, which is technically a men's shirt but I thought it looked really cool and I don't like that Disney doesn't carry the same things for men and for women. For the most part they look unisex to me and a lot of their men's stuff has characters I like better. Like the star wars shirt for women was grey with pink lettering and had no pictures, but the mens shirt had a really cool metallic silver logo on black clothing with pictures of all the new characters and Luke inside of the letters... much cooler! So I got that! The other shirt I got is really funny and it has Sleeping Beauty on it and it says "I Woke Up Like This." Which I really liked! Super cute and funny and my niece likes it when I wear shirts with c...

Scribbles About Life: 3.10.16

Soooo... I don't really want to post about my day... but I don't really want to post anything else either. I started writing something about female characters in movies and TV... but I just didn't like what I was writing and... idk... I was a blog writing machine this week and now I feel defeated. I wrote a ton on Monday and Tuesday and now I just don't feel like doing a post today... but I want to write still... So I'll talk about things that I guess are on my mind lately... Idk. So I got this Revlon Ultra HD Matte Lipcolor... and for some reason... I'm addicted to the way that it smells. Idk why, it smells like cherry medicine... but I also sort of like it. Its more cherry than medicine... and I can't smell it on my lips... but Idk. I keep smelling it in the tube. I got some cute stuff from American Eagle yesterday too! I got a dress and a romper... I do not own any Rompers... except this one... but it looked good on me and it didn't make me look f...

Throwback Thursday: 13 Going On 30

So I watched this on VH1 around Christmas Time because it was on... they really need to bring this movie to Netflix because it's pretty fantastic and VH1 doesn't get the whole thing. I didn't catch the very beginning... but I did watch most of it from around the time when Matty gives her the Dream House... so sweet. It was a little weird to watch this movie because when it came out, I was 13 or almost 13... and now I'm closer to being 30... but I still felt more connected to the 13 year old Jenna instead of the adults in the movie. Like I'm not totally sure when I turned almost 30... but I don't like it. I'm still 13 year old Jenna who likes the same music as when I was 13 and has kind of the same style as I did then... I don't know... its just kind of a weird thing and I was freaking out a little bit from it. This is also the movie that introduced me to one of my favorite actresses, Judy Greer! I love Judy Greer, she's so funny and great and s...
