The land of the crazy does October (The Season Schedule 2004)

I was thinking of how busy I have been and decided to look forward. This is the schedule for the Halloween portion of The Season (Oct-Dec). It is costumes galore. There are other things going on but this is just the costume portion.

On the current schedule
Oct 9 – Geek Grrl – Danger Twin’s Season Opener Party, Mutate! – Still making corset, need leather suspenders, have most everything else, I think.
Oct 22 – Skull queen – Dance Macabre (Friday Night Waltz) – Have skirt/shirt, need to hem shirt and put in a waistband for skirt.
Oct 23 – Kimono – Witches Ball, Silk Road – Outfit out of the closet, nothing to worry about except maybe hair sticks.
Oct 29 – Bambi – Skylab Party, 60′s Japanese Monster movies – need to make tail (need it anyway for rabbit), make ears, make spots, make spats, actually rather little to do.
Oct 30 – Valkyries – Gaskell’s – Make skirt, figure out waist band/shoes/arm bands, make cape thingy, improve head piece, fix breastplate.
Oct 31 – Some kind of Goth outfit – Goth Picnic in the Cemetery – Something out of my closet.
Nov 6 – White Rabbit – Bal Des Vampyre – Out of closet for the most part.

Sadly, Halloween is not on a work day so I don’t get to do a work costume. Usually I manage to do something costume like the day before Halloween too so I am going to miss out on two outfits. Will I ever survive? *sigh*

Just to be complete, here is the schedule for the rest of The Season:
Nov 1 – Day off to go Halloween clearance shopping
Nov 6 – Bal des Vampyre
Nov 7 – 7th seas RPG
Nov 10 – my birthday which I might ignore
Nov 12-14 – 9sisters retreat
Nov 20 – Was suppose to be the GBACG Pirate’s Feast but that looks hosed. It will probably be the Pit of Scorpions annual party (we have so many Scorpios, we have a party to see if we can survive each other. If we do, then we will take over the world)
Nov 25 – Thanksgiving, who knows what this will hold
Nov 26-29 Loscon and garment district run
Dec 4 – Wow, an open spot, run around screaming Surprise Funeral for a friend
Dec 5 – ridhwan services (not that time consuming)
Dec 11-12 – An open weekend, shall a pool get started to see how long it stays that way? Dickens should be in there somewhere.
Dec 18 – Xmas Gaskells
Dec 25 – Xmas, which is actually quite empty for me. I hide in bed until the damn day is over the the world starts up again.
Dec 31 – New Years
Some time in January is going to be 12th night and that usually is the final event of The Season that starts in Oct.

This does not include Holiday events, work parties (had three of them the year before) and friend’s parties. I am scheduling breathing for Jan and Feb.

[Edit to Dec 4th now that I have the official date]

  1. Dec 4 – Wow, an open spot, run around screaming

    …actually, it’s that suprise funeral :-D

    Sorry, didn’t mean to add more to your plate.
    Your schedule looks, somewhat…like mine.

    BUSY.

      That is good to know. I wasn’t sure of the time and haven’t gotten around to figuring out when it was. That event is on my schedule just not officially. This way, I don’t have to create space for it. It slides in easy. Thanks!
