Good morning, world! I'm up this early because I mistakenly thought I'd set my bedroom clock an hour back before I left for Birmingham on Sunday. I had not, so when I thought I was waking up at 7:15, it was actually 6:15. If the sun had only had the decency to not be up so high and shining so brightly at that hour, maybe I would have realized my error earlier. As it stands, I'm up and ready for the day, when I should be just now getting up and getting ready for the day.

Anyway. Halloween was a great success, costume-wise. The Kerlix-under-metallic-ribbon didn't look quite as awesome and lacy as I'd hoped. However, as I predicted when I first decided on a costume, the headpiece was what really made it recognizable. Several people yelled out "Lady Gaga!!" upon seeing me. That's all I really wanted. I'll post pictures as soon as I get my act together and find my camera/cord.
