As media and advertisements won’t let us forget, the 31st is a few weeks away. Unfortunately there is usually so much shit going on that it’s hard to decide. So: what to do this Halloween?

A) Stay in and hand out candy to creepily cute/greedy children

B) Try to rekindle the dying flame of youth by getting a sugar high and kicking pumpkins

C) Go to a potentially awesome house party that turns lame when someone has a bad trip and believes that their costume has become part of them, like that mask from Goosebumps

D) Peep Clubzone to find a dance party that won’t cost you your soul/over $50 to attend, except….

holy shitballs. 583. 

E) See what the hipster mafia has to offer:

The disco fabulousity of Glass Candy and local dance punk sensation of You Say Party! for $15? Sounds pretty exciting…. I mean exFRIGHTENing to me! Couldn’t resist.

I love this rainy Vancouver. Tonight the air was rich with that perfect Fall smell; burnt wood and firecrackers.

October, October… I can’t wait to turn into a werewolf! Though I may have to count on dolling myself up as Barbarella, I know I’d kick ass more effectively if I were to morph into my wolf counterpart. One can only hope there is a hint of truth in those terribly stimulating “Animorphs” novels I was forced encouraged to read as a child of the nineties…

oh, and I Love Lace. I would simply kill to wear that bodysuit under my most ripped and slouchy jeans.
