I�m going to be Princess Mononoke for Halloween.

Originally I wanted to be Blondie from "The Good, The Bad and The Ugly," (young Clint Eastwood you so fine) but that turned out to be kind of spendy. I�ll get there, someday.

THEN I was going to be a deer. The thing about that costume was that I�m like, really lazy. Antlers? I can�t make antlers. And where would I even buy them? The internet? I stole this idea from a friend only a week ago, it�s too late for that! Then I thought maybe I could use spray painted sticks. But really, how am I going to get sticks on my head? Plus, I�m pretty sure I�d just look like an idiot with spray painted sticks stuck to her head. I can�t really pull off ethereal. You know this if you�ve ever met me.

While still debating on the whole deer concept I decided to look for inspiration at the always classy Fabric Depot on 122nd and Stark (really close to Gresham and right across the street from a handful of delightful strip clubs), and went into the Faux Fur Room. That�s right. An entire ROOM dedicated to huge reams of beautiful, shedding, faux fur. You guys, that shit was like $40 bones a yard. I can�t pay that. I can find a real fur coat at Goodwill for the same price.

So I found like, a couple of feet of scrap faux fur for $7 bones and stared at it and wondered to myself what the fuck it would be good for.

And then Edward was like, �OMG Princess Mononoke.� So I agreed because I�m kind of desperate.

I�m wandering into pretty nerdy territory here and don�t know how I feel about wearing an anime costume. But I�m totally going to do it.

Wish me luck.

GOOD LUCK!

But anyway I was just gonna say young Clint Eastwood was a TOTAL BABE.

But it'd be a cool princess. Nerdy princess, but a PRINCESS.
Without the frillies.
