halloween

i was cruella de vil. big hit. my coat shed. it was like owning a dog for the first time. i went trick or treating too. all around roslyn, people looked at me and my friends like we were real freaks. one lady looked at our abercrombie bag (to hold treats!) and went, oh of course it's abercrombie, we are in roslyn, after all. and all this with the most horrendous long island accent, tight faded jeans and blond hair with the roots growing in.

my friend was a japanese tourist. i taught her how to say, i am a gynecologist.
i received much delicious candy. milky way dark are a revelation.

i also ate four cupcakes.
they were good.

in my school, groups of girl- friends dress up as various kinds of sluts. we had princess-sluts, cupid-sluts, fairy-sluts, army-sluts, bunny-sluts, bug-sluts, eighties-sluts, flight attendant-sluts, and then male sluts in drag. a boy who had cancer dressed up as mr. clean. i didn't recognize him until they called out his name as the third place winner in the costume contest. i was horrified, and really sad, because he is unrecognizable. the grand prize was 50 dollars, which went to a boy who dressed up as the winner of a wet-t-shirt contest.

i'm considering dying half of my hair stark white.

also, today we performed my hamlet opera in english to prokofiev's romeo and juliet. i sang my aria to the tune of various christmas carols. i died. so did everyone else.

i am tired.

good bye,.
