So this weekend I pretended I was in college again. I ate a LOT of pizza, and was up until wee hours of the morning with no naps during the day.

Friday night was Clockwork Ball, and it was really fun, and really toasty. Especially in layers of crinoline and taffeta. But it was worth it because this was a really fun costume! I am totally in love with the skirt I made.

And despite loving the curly bouncy wig I bought for Cheetara last fall, and for a few costumes since, I never thought I was a good blonde. I think I have to change my mind about that now. Hee!

I didn't get any good shots of my awesome mini top hat though. For such a little hat, I still managed to run into stuff with it. Go go awesome feather plumes! And despite circumstantial photographic evidence that may indicate otherwise, I was totally sober the whole night.

We got a lot of funny and amusing looks walking five blocks from the parking lot to the club. They were just jealous that they weren't also going to an awesome party.

Saturday was Transformers (it was okay), and italian ice (yum) and a lot of Michael Jackson music videos. Sunday was brainless vegetating until going to McMullens' for celebrations!

I came home and almost immediately climbed into bed with some comic books before zonking out.

I'm really thinking it would be fun to organize a tweed ride this fall...

Or maybe not...

So after finding the article about the tweed rides, while we were walking to the Clockwork Ball we pass a bicycle shop and Michelle goes "So, when are we going to go shopping for bikes?"

Then this morning I was seriously thinking about how much fun a fall steamy-themed bike ride would be. And I keep saying I want a bike, which is way more fun than walking around, and I can't run so covering long distances and seeing lots of neat things on the way takes a lot of time.

I also found these very convenient bike trail maps.

So...the Bicycle Chain shops are open on Sundays...who wants to go browsing on the 12th? I'll be out of town for the 4th holiday, and the next Saturday is Unbirthday tea party!
