Happy Pagan New Year, people! Now I can’t possibly be the only one who thought of this, but wouldn’t you agree that Hallowe’en should be a paid national holiday? Although I’m not a practising Pagan — I’m just into various mythologies — there are more than enough practicising Pagans in the States where it’d be a worthwhile idea. And if you yourself aren’t some sort of Pagan, quityrbitchin’, you’re getting a paid day off! It’s not like there’s a lack of either history or merchandising behind it, so they might as well go all the way… Perhaps we should get a petition round.
Did everyone have a good All Hallows Eve? I have to say that, now that it’s after Hallowe’en, I just thought of a stunning costume idea: Sidore and I could’ve gone out trick-or-treating as Bianca and Lars. All we’d need would be some pastel-coloured knitted winter wear, a wheelchair for her, and a weedy little moustache for me. Why didn’t that occur to me earlier? That would’ve been brilliant

Yeah. Why didnt you think of that? Still, maybe Sidore would want ot be a naughty french maid or nurse.

Actually, Shi-chan did a shoot once many years ago, where she was wearing a nightie that looked a bit like a French maid outfit. Now that I think of it, she’s got a PVC French maid/dirndl-type outfit as well… That’s another one we have to redo, as I’d lost that shoot due to faulty media storage — people believed the Cd-RW to be infallible, and to my horror, I learned that it wasn’t. 😐
Anyway, this was the only pic that survived, hosted on her cousin Charlie Joanne’s sprawling website. Enjoy!

In hindsight, I was talking to my co-workers and we should have gone as Josie and the Pussycats.
Maybe next year

?!!
Please please please say you would’ve gone as the classic Josie and the Pussycats. You know — long tails, ears for hats, guitars in sharps and flats, etc.
Josie and the Pussycats: better than the Archies, due to sexy girls in kitty outfits.

You bet. 😉
