Cliche After Halloween Post..

Of course, I must follow the trend and post about my Halloween. I know I'm a bit late on the subject but I guess better late than never, right?

My last minute Halloween costume (Read on...)

For me, Halloween started early. I mean really early. We're talking 12:00 a.m. early. I have a problem with self restraint and control when it comes to three things. The first being brownie batter, the second being Vampire Diaries and the third being my McDonalds consumption. Let's focus on the second, shall we? The night before Halloween I sat down to watch one, maybe two episodes of Season 4 of Vampire Diaries on Netflix. Three, four, even five episodes passed and finally around 4 a.m. I had the strength to fall asleep. Funny that one needs strength to fall asleep eh?

As if watching almost 5 straight hours of Vampire Diaries wasn't enough, I started to dream that I was part of the cast and that I was somehow intimately involved. I know what you're thinking.. that I'm pathetic. Ugh, as if I didn't already know this!? Reality and fiction started to merge together to the point of my life colliding with a teen drama! What's real? Where does my vicarious living begin and end? Well, on Halloween day, we never found out.

I awoke to the harsh realization that I had missed 3 of my 4 classes that day. Being the motivated over-achiever that I am, I decided to just skip that last one and forget the whole class thing. (That's my sarcasm coming into play.) After all, it WAS Halloween. The first and worst mistake I made that day was turning on Vamp Diaries merely seconds after I woke up. Four hours later, I moseyed out of bed and ate some cereal. Four more hours later I finally rummaged up the courage to take a shower. It was now 8:00 and my Halloween festivities began in roughly an hour. Deciding to multitask, I got ready while watching another episode of VD. The constant struggle to stay focused on simple tasks while watching that is almost impossible. But I managed.

I was finally ready. My last minute costume turned out to be a make shift cat.. with wolf ears. But whatever, on Halloween, no one really cares. I was finally free from the bondage of my Netflix to live my own life! Thank goodness it was Halloween and I could easily cope with the lack of Vampires and Warewolves with all the other distractions.

After a few parties and giving a few digits, I was happily back into the swing of my normal life.... until Sunday. And it was all down here from there.

Hope you had just as good or an even better Halloween than I. :) I will have you know, I don't regret my poor decision to over-consume VD, and I never will.
