iHaTePiNk: Friendster Edition

Well, I loved trick or treating as a kid. I just recently saw Hallowe’en, the old movie, at Master Pancake Theater in Austin, which had me twitching with fear between laughing my head off. Yeah, if *that* freaks me out, then there’s no way I’m will be able to stomach other more recent stuff. My most recent fond memory of watching a scary movie is with Fri, in the middle of the afternoon, sun pouring in, huddled together in Ed’s bed, watching a Korean or Japanese version of The Ring … and both of us still shivering with fear. Hahaha, we are so weak.

The people at the Scion Fright Fest were really getting into it.

Hahahahahah. Nice.

My Corolla dressed up as a Matrix.

Me at my best.

I saw these little orange wheely things at Walmart. There was only Spanish labelling indicating what it was. I thought it was candy. I was hungry. I picked one up and put it in my mouth …

Yuck. I think it was pasta!

So J.Ma and I headed out to Austin for a brief jaunt.

Note to self: never change drivers at Columbus because that is where you are supposed to get on the 71 from I-10. I is moran. Well, on the upside we discovered the cities(?) of “Swiss Alp” (yes, just one “alp”) and “Schulenberg”(sp?).

Highlights (click through for the full set o’ pics):

Me jumping for joy because we went to the WRONG PLACE for the Maker Faire!

Finally finding the Maker Faire, we found a van decorated entirely with … cameras! Oh, and these convex mirrors.

We went to watch the Master Pancake Theater. The Rocky Horror Picture Show was showing at the same time. I got a pic with the best-dressed couple!

What is UP with all the pinkness! Notice that the number of ladies’ port-o-potties WAY outnumbers the men’s.

I met cute doggies …

… and Ashley’s kid for the first time. He let me hug him! Aww!

Just got around to uploading pics of J’s bite-sized chihuahua, Oreo.

She always looks kinda freaked out. Here’s Oreo hangin’ out in her homemade bed.

When her owner isn’t around, she sometimes starts to get testy.

She has a love-hate relationship with Andy. Here, it’s love, I think.

Hey friends! I have a friend (who makes cool clothing and other stuff all by hand) participating in this fair up in Austin, so I thought I’d spread the word.
