Gearing up for Halloween...

October's Maven box

So yesterday I received my Julep Maven box!  I was super excited to get this because it was the first collection where I loved all the colors. 

They called the collection "Black Magic".  Its the 9 polishes in the upper left corner of the photo. Nancy, Shailene, Dean, Logan, Margarita, Ledi, Marla, Briann and Dana.  I also decided to add on Casper, which is a glow in the dark polish as well as black cat decals, a plush pout lip crayon and the night mask.  For adding on 3 add ons I was gifted with the red and yellow polishes in the bottom right, Catrina & Karmen.   I was really pleased with this month's box.  One of the things I'm most geeked about is the polish Dana.  It's black light reactive.

You shouldn't watch scary movies with us....

Seriously, you don't want to watch scary movies with me and the mister.  we'll ruin your experience. We don't mean too, it just happens, especially if it's one on Syfy. 

(Mister flipping thru the channels on TV while I'm checking my email on the couch next to him. He stops on the Syfy channel to a movie called "transmanian  devils" I think.  Starts off with a helicopter of younger guys who are base jumpers headed to some mountain/cliff area)

Me: I want the douchebag in the middle, he's a smooth talker...
Mister: *looks at me and laughs*
(in the movie they're on top of this jump area and the douche I mentioned previously is scared to jump and everyone gives him shit, so he pretends he's not gonna jump and then leaps off like barney badass. He falls thru a bunch of trees instead of the land point and impales himself on a huge spike in the ground)
Me: See what happens when you're a douchebag? Let that be a lesson to you... You end up leaking blood everywhere that'll bring the evil monsters from hell out after your friends. Why does he keep hitting that spike in him?  You'd think it'd make it worse.
Mister: Yeah, he shouldn't be able to move his legs at all. 
Me: Oh yeah, because that should of impaled his spine.  Well maybe he has scoliosis and the spike missed his spine entirely?
(cue the side glances and laughing and the turning of the channel)

Seriously tho', Syfy movies are so horrible sometimes that they're actually awesome, but it's not where I'm going to go to get scared. 

 

Forgive me for my future hangry....

So to officially kick off the start of October, I am doing a 14 week weight loss challenge with 7 of my friends.  The one who loses the most weight wins.  There's money riding on this. Because everyone knows that money, sex and candy motivates anyone, young or old.  Tho' this is just a fun friendly competition, I also see it as a way to keep me in line.  I have a HUGE sweet tooth.  So obviously Halloween and Christmas proposes as a threat to me.  Thanksgiving not so much.  I really don't dig the Thanksgiving feast.  Normally on that holiday my plate consists of salad, a roll and maybe a slice of cherry pie if someone made one.  But Halloween candy and Christmas cookies/sweets...oh my god. I feel myself getting fat thinking about them. Anywho... if I seem especially snarky/bitchy/annoyed...its because I'm going thru sugar withdraw.  OK, so I doubt I can completely give up sweets, but I'm going to try to keep them out of my house. 
So what are some of your diet/exercise tips? Favorite meals?

 

I have no words....
