Troper Updates II, Part II

Go To

In which we get updates from the lives of tropers. Kinda like Twitter with more than 140 characters, but less than a blog or LJ.

Please refrain from excess venting in this thread. Talking about negative emotions is fine but it's best not to dwell on them for too long. TV Tropes is not suited to deal with mental health situations.

Yay! A thing!

Just caught myself thinking 'I am really tense tonight. I could do with a drink.'

Uh oh.

It's a little healthier than;

I don't know. I shouldn't drink when I'm not happy. Random strangers get covered in my tears and snot.

Okay, I can agree there. Drinking when feeling down is extremely self-defeating.

Nonetheless, I feel a desperate need to go out and party. Alas, I'm working or I'd be smashed and dancing on the bar already.

More Halloween costume troubles with my mom. See, my theater is having a Halloween party and Mom is forcing me to wear a costume for it so I won't be "left out." I no longer wear Halloween costumes because 1. Mom almost always picks them out for me, 2. None of my ideas are ever any good and 3. I'm at that age where all the costumes available for purchase seem to be the slutty ones. Nevertheless, this hasn't stopped Mom. Because I recently got a fedora, she's saying I should dress up as one of The Blues Brothers. I rejected this due to being female (and not wanting to explain that said costume was my mom's idea when people ask what the hell I was thinking), so she suggested I look up pictures of female Blues Brothers costumes and tell her what I thought. Guess what? There aren't any.

EDIT: Hey, I still have that costume from the Ren Faire... smile

That's what I've done for almost every Halloween. One year I decided that I wanted to be Squidward, so we found a brown shirt and made a paper mache mask. It's held up for a long time, actually. And two years ago I was the Mad Hatter from the Tim Burton version of Alice In Wonderland, and we pretty much completely reconstructed the costume using Goodwill junk and a bunch of You Tube videos about the makeup.

Plus, the Ren Faire costume was a birthday present and it might not fit me by next May, so I want to get all the use out of it that I can. Mom might not think it's such a great plan, but I don't care. I'll convince her by saying that I've saved her some work.

Put a tire over his head and set fire to it. Classic scares.

Nah, I was thinking a more of a shadowy figure on top of the stairs and lights wont turn on type of scare.

My brother is famous for being very cowardly.
