Trick-or-Treat

You all probably think I've abandoned the palace.  I realize I've only been posting little tidbits each week and this week I even missed that.  I assure you that things will get back to normal some small resemblance of sanity in the near future.  Right now, my job has me working long hours and by the time I get home all I want to do is vegetate and try to keep the Ogre Child from destroying the house or my sanity before bedtime (which is about 1am if you're curious).

It's not that I couldn't drop you a little note every once in a while... it's just that... well... there is nothing exciting to even makeup.  Unless you want to hear about how dirty a guest's toilet was, or how I slammed a door in a co-workers face because he admitted to staring at my ass while I was drying a bathtub (frankly that made my day because it's nice to know your ass still looks good in an ugly pair of slacks.)

But enough of that bullshit!  Let's get down to the heart of the matter.

HALLOWEEN!

A witch and her black kitty!
You'll notice (if you're not blind) I changed the layout today.  I meant to do it a couple of days ago, but frankly... it's been Halloween in this house for 3 days!  I have literally had time to walk in my door, get a kid ready, throw on some makeup and a dress, and walk back out the door to Trick-or-Treat with The Queen.

So you get the 'Holiday Header' a little late, and I'll probably leave it up for a little bit just to show off my hard work (and because I just can't get enough of Halloween!)

Friday night we hit our local mall for some 'safe' trick-or-treating fun.  It's been a tradition since the OC was born.  I never really liked the walk or the fact that you don't say 'trick-or-treat'... but it safe and fun to see all the costumes.

Yesterday we headed over to The Queen's village of employment for the OC's first haunted house and a delicious dinner.

And tonight we'll be headed out with Prince Charming for some more cavity inducing entertainment!

Mommy can be a real witch sometimes!
It's all in fun (and greed) because I love Halloween!  It's my FAVORITE holiday...

However, there are a few things I hate about Halloween...
Tweemps - teenagers dressed up in slutty costumes.  For that matter... the fact that almost every female costume is designed for hookers!
The post makeup breakout.  Yes!  I'll be stuck in my teens for my entire life, and even though I use mineral makeup and meticulously remove it with care, my face hates Halloween!
The fact that despite my artistic expertise, I have never been able to carve an awesome pumpkin... so I just leave them whole on my porch to look pretty through November.
And the #1 thing I don't like about Halloween... We have been BUSY!  For the last two days I've left for work at 8 AM.  When I get home, I grab the kid and we're gone until after 8 that night.  We drug our asses in exhausted both nights.  Unfortunately, during this time, my dishwasher, broom, and trashcan have all gone on strike.  The kitchen is disgusting, the OC's toys are everywhere, and she brought to my attention yesterday that she'd used her 'baby potty' to go poopy... I have no idea how long that's been sitting there, but when she opened the lid I about barfed!  So I'm off to do some semblance of cleaning before it's time to start getting ready tonight.
Trick-or-Treat!
And in true Halloween tradition... I'm trick-or-treating at your place!!  You are required to leave me some comment candy or risk being 'tricked' as part of my revenge plot.  And while you might be able to keep an eye on me... or think I'll be too busy to get even... I have minions with evil plots just waiting to be brought to life!!  MUAHHAHAHAHA!! 

Just to help you out, I'll give you something to talk about...
  • Best thing about Halloween
  • Worst thing about Halloween
  • Favorite costume ever
  • Best Halloween 'prank' or 'devious act'
  • Best candy
  • Worst candy
HAVE A SAFE AND FUN HALLOWEEN!!!!

Ever Seen a Princess Throw a Tantrum?

YOU ARE ABOUT TO!!

Yeah I've been gone AGAIN!!  Yeah, well... this time I have a great excuse!  No seriously!  My body guard had a serious mishap with a clown costume.  Don't be too hard on her, in the rush to hire my personal security, I failed to hand out the list of Princess phobias which include clowns!  So yeah... Ariana is now required to carry the contact information for my personal therapist because I am SOOOO not spending another week in a PLAIN WHITE jacket!  *gasp!*  PULEASE!  It's definately a far cry from the fashiontastic hooker red number I'm used to... and no bling?  I'd have settled for a cheap bedazzled knockoff... but no.  PLAIN WHITE!

So imagine my surprise when I finally get home, have a cocktail, have a COCKtail, and step into the blog-o-sphere to discover THIS!

Oh HELL to the FUCKING to the NO!

After I bandaged my hand and ran to the store for a new monitor, I went back...

and...

decided I needed a few more cocktails if I was going to be dealing with this kind of shit!

I broke out the good bottle of Crown Black!

And then I stomped off to my room, slammed the door and proceded to pout!  The rest of my cocktails would just have to be delivered!

I kinda lost track of shit after that...

I'm pretty sure the little white rabbit stole my shoe and went through the door behind my dresser.
Amy's been slipping shit in my drinks again!

A little voice in the back of my head finally reminded me that the rehab center does NOT let me bring my bling so I'd better sober the fuck up soon!

So...

Today is a new day!
it's a day without my beloved blog sister...
it's a day that makes me sad...
it's a day I wish I could undo...
but it's a new day!

Tomorrow...
I'll call the repair man to fix the hole in the wall...
I'll send Ariana to restock the liquor cabinets...
I'll get Amy to hook me up with a good stash...
And...

...

I'll get sauced and polish my CROWN!!

CB - I'm gonna miss you hooker!
*heart*
*heart*
*double heart*
