Hello November.

The leaves in our neighborhood have turned an amazing shade of red so Jarod and I went out for a walk last weekend and I took some pictures. 

 

 

 

Jarod and I had another busy weekend. On Friday we went to the Flogging Molly concert and I got to experience my first mosh pit (with Jarod there to protect me of course). He suggested I wear old shoes that I didn't care about, so I wore a pair of white sneakers that had a stain on them. By the end of the night my feet had been stepped on so many times by gross, sticky shoes that they were now a not-so-lovely shade of brown. The concert was fun and Jarod and I had a nice evening out together.

On Saturday (Halloween) Jarod and I woke up and still didn't have our costumes decided on. We had discussed lots of possibilities (Archie and Veronica, Dr.Phil and Oprah, Dexter and a victim, etc.)  but just couldn't decide on any. We went to the thrift store to look for ideas but it was of course packed with people and there was hardly anything left, so we went to a party supply/costume shop. Jarod found a sailor's hat for cheap so he decided to go as a sailor, and I found a fake crow so I decided to go as a character from the Alfred Hitchcock movie, The Birds. 

I think it turned out pretty well! Our Halloween plans were to go see the Vancouver Symphony Orchestra play along to Nosferatu, and it was really fun. We went with our friends Paul and Jen and had a lovely time. We went out for a late dinner after at my favourite restaurant in Vancouver, The Naam.

On Sunday I had a ridiculous amount of homework to do but Jarod somehow convinced me to go see Where the Wild Things Are in the afternoon. It was a wonderful movie, and I'm very glad I went. Unfortunately I was up working on homework until 5:00AM this morning, and had to get up for school at 7:00AM. Luckily my teacher really liked my package re-design for Lay's Stax (Phewph!).

Tonight I have another major project to finish (I am totally procrastinating right now) so I think I'll be up super late again.
