• TGF the weekend!

  I'm taking a break from organizing and cleaning to finish up the Halloween party playlist, so while I'm screening songs I thought I'd drop by Xanga.  The house is not going to be done in time for the party tomorrow, but I will get the living room finished tonight and then all I have left is the office, kitchen and basement.  I may or may not get more done in the office tonight, otherwise I'm just shutting the door to that room.  There is no way I have enough time to get the kitchen done, most of the stuff is still in boxes in the basement.  However, it will be clean for the party and I'll finish up the kitchen and basement over time.  Fortunately, the basement only consists of setting up a little TV area for playing Wii, and then going through everything that didn't find a place upstairs and either finding a place for it or getting rid of it.  

  My best friend came over this afternoon and we worked all afternoon and part of the evening on the party food.  Most of the food is ready, just a few things to finish up tomorrow.  He's coming back early tomorrow to help finish up the food and hang the decorations.  I'm going to need at least an hour to take a bath and get into my costume.  The party is a vampire theme (NOT Twilight, lol) because I was able to find a "fangtastic" set of party supplies for "grave-dirt" cheap.  Yes, my costume is a vampire.  I'm wearing the black and red, satin and lace goth dress I wore to CONvergence last year and I picked up some retractable fangs.  

  I'm looking forward to this break in the organizing/cleaning.  Hopefully a night off to really party will relieve some of my stress and it won't be so daunting to get the rest of the house done.  My poor cat Zulu has been hiding in the basement for hours, he's terrified of other people and automatically hides when someone comes over.  Now he's out crying and demanding petting.  He's not going to be happy tomorrow.  :( 

  I will post pictures of the set up tomorrow before the party since my parents are requesting them anyway.  :)
