i fully admit to having the worlds best halloween costume. strangely it was a backup costume that i had to rely upon as the first one would have actually involved the purchase of a sewing machine. which i do not have room for. or money for. or time for. i will tell you more about the costume tomorrow, with hopes that i'll also be able to tell you about the copious prizes i won, and perhaps the phone #s that were thrown at me by beautiful girls.

i had a dream last night where by chance i met another person named onepinksock. except she went by greatonepinksock. we met in a bar while i was waiting for coworkers i don't normally socialize with. and maybe this bar was also an arcade, with pole position and such. strange.

i finally defriended the ex on myspace. hey, it only took me 6+ months. i'm not sure what changed my mind- perhaps it is a painting i'm working on that is a meditation on forgiving,* and i have finally worked out that i do not need anything from her in my life- approval, thread of hope for friendship, communication. we'll see how long this lasts, but it is a goal of mine to work her out of my thoughts and life.

*forgiveness in the sense that i choose not to be in a state of suffering over what happened. this definition was taken from a yogi.
