Halloween Is Coming

[FaeLuna]

We just decorated the house for Halloween, we hung little teeny jack o lanterns (without lights, just plastic, made for candy) up in our windows, and put a door cover on the inside where we can see the cute black cat climbing on a pile of jack o lanterns, and we hung a little flapping glow in the dark bat from the dining room light, and 2 of the little plastic jack o lanterns from the living room fan. Whew! We're now ready for the cats to start playing with all the tempting dangling toys and string!! ;)

We're going to a party Sunday and I'm trying to plan my Earth Goddess/ Gaia or Tree Nymph costume. All this made me wonder if anyone else is doing anything for the Halloween season, in real life, or sims related? :D

[timz2rules]

If we only knew were you lived Sugar....your location is blank :D :p

[timz2rules]

i'm suposed to set up a Haunted house this year...with the help of a friend of mine...it'll scare the pants off of those devil children...

[Helén]

Hmmm.. I know where she lives. :classic: But she must tell herself, I never give out adresses.... ;););)
Why don't you PM her Josh? That way she will get the question faster.

[timz2rules]

if she has her thing set to recive PM's...

[Helén]

yes - i've PM'ed her :)

[FaeLuna]

oooh you're working on a Haunted House Tim?? Those can be so much fun when you have little kids running through them!! My brother had a blast when we were teenagers and running the Haunted House for the little ones, he would pop up from behind stuff at random places along the hallway maze they were running through, and make faces at them, they loved it!! :p

Sugar, I hope your party is a blast!!

[Emidio]

Halloween here isn't as USA one. It isn't like a "tradition" you know? It's more for fun. But sure I go to the streets to grab some candies!! ;) ;) ;) I wanna go out this Halloween with my friends.... But... :rolleyes: i don't know... There are bats in my hood at night... I'm afraid of them. They don't get blood, but they're yucky... :) :)


H-A-L-L-O-W-E-E-N :bandit: :bandit: :bandit:

[FaeLuna]

heehee yeah I know Halloween isn't just usa, but I knew some of my online friends around the world don't celebrate it, so I'm now not sure where they DO and where they DON'T celebrate it as the typical usual thing!! heh. :D I liked the bats in my neighborhood, they ate the mosquitoes that were trying to eat US when we were out trying to play hide n seek!!

[timz2rules]

the Haunted House is based off of Haunted Mansion...so any info on that you guys can get or what not, like sound files would be greatly apreciated...:)

[timz2rules]

congratulations on your promotion Fae! :)

[ManagerJosh]

Just don't go do anything illegal like egging my house.....I'll ban you for egging it :D

[ManagerJosh]

SHUSH Tim!

[Emidio]

But sure halloween is fun!!! And you get a looooooooooooot of candies and sweets and chocolates and it's so good. But you get some extra pounds because of the sugar... lol:) :) :)

[ManagerJosh]

One touch on the lips is 20 inches in the hips......or was it one touch on the lips is 20 pounds on the hips???

O well, either way from all that sugar, it is a disaster for your figure..

[Helén]

I know! :p:p:p

[ManagerJosh]

Hehehe...nina can testify to that LOL :D :laugh:

[FaeLuna]

hey wow there it is, I didn't remember to look, "moderator" yay! :p

The saying I know is "A moment on the lips, a lifetime on the hips." :D

I'm going to splurge for the Halloween party, we're bringing candy and cookies, and paper plates and paper towels, and tiki torches, and decorations, and a veggie platter.... turns out our host doesn't have ANY decorations as her roomie took them when they moved out!! ak! :p

[Jaysienne]

We don't do anything for Halloween. Boring I know :bored: . When I was little we used to go Trick Or Treating, but we never went really far with decorations or costumes, Guy Fawkes night is a bigger thing over here.:)

[ManagerJosh]

You will probably have a swarm of Harry Potter Costumes this year, Jay

[Helén]

Congrats Fae!!! You're a moderator too now!!! :classic:

So you did need more then Josh!!! LOL!!! ;)

Yeah, probably. We already have swarms of little boys with short brown hair and thick rimmed glasses running round shouting things about Quidditch. :)

[Helén]

heh... I think I'm gonna go hide when they start Halloween here. I'm not into it myself - but many around is. And when they translate "trick or treat"... *sighes*

[ManagerJosh]

I got this idea from one of the books I bought at amazon a few years back...

what happened was when people said trick or treat, I asked them trick or treat?

They'll usually say trick or treat, and I'm saying Trick or Treat?

They'll usually get mad because they can't figure out I'm asking do they want a Trick or do they want a Treat?

But usually if they get it, I give them what they ask...a trick...or a treat... :p

[sugar_junkie]

[sugar_junkie]

[Helén]

Click the link and see for yourself Tess. It's a pretty ugly thing.

[FaeLuna]

oooh eeew ick!! this was SOOO scary I was about to leave, but then it changed and was MUCH better!! :) :D :p

[FaeLuna]

Well, I'm going to be attempting to dye my hair green on the tips and in streaks that I'll later braid to look like vines... wish me luck because I didn't get gloves to protect my hands, and I'm going to try to use plastic shopping bags as glove replacements!! I'm all excited and nervous because I've never done this with my hair before!! :p

[FaeLuna]

ak!! How do people DO this??!!! I now have green splotches all over my forehead,and green stripes on my shoulder and across my chest, and even with the plastic bags on my hands, I got green splotches all over my left hand!! And we're not even to the rinsing part yet, this is the 15 minutes "processing" time, I decided to ruin 2 hair clips and try not to get anymore on my SKIN!! :p

[Helén]

LOL!!!! You'll end up real "witchy" Fae!! I wish I could see you!
:laugh::laugh::laugh:
I wonder too how people does it. I don't even dare to try!! :eek:

Well... good luck!!! You'll need it!! The hug you can get when you're no longer "coloring off" on things. :laugh::laugh::laugh:

[FaeLuna]

Well I got lucky and I was able to wash off the green all over my skin and hands and forehead when I rinsed and washed my hair!! I should have paid more attention to what "rinse thoroughly with COLD water" would mean, yeeeek cold cold cold COLD!!! But I'm now waiting for my hair to dry all the way, looks good so far, and only one stain on my nails, which I'm going to be painting later with dark green metallic nail polish anyway. :)

[Helén]

*gives Fae a big hug* Cool (oops)! Yuo're gonna look awesome.

*hands Fae a warm blanket to use until the hair is dry* :classic:

[FaeLuna]

*snuggles in the warm blankie* thanks!! My hair is ALMOST dry now... it's long, down below my waist, so it takes a while to air dry! I'm going to have fun showing it off to my hubby when he gets home from work tonight! He's bringing home drink mixes with him, I like just mixing some of them up with Sprite instead of alcohol for a yummy drink! They have some really good frozen drink mixes that are now sold in the grocery store with the frozen juices and mixing those together with Sprite makes a KILLER punch!! :p There will be SOME alcohol at the party, but not much. We're all adults except the baby, he's about 1 and 1/2 and will be in a little dragon outfit, it should be sooooo cute!! Unless his mommy changed her mind about the costume, then I'll be surprised!! :D I'm happy my friend's landlady will be coming to the party too, she's really nice and deserves to have some fun! It's sad, but my friend and only ONE other renter, out of FOUR renters, are the only 2 paying their rent!! The other 2 owe her about $1,000 and she's barely able to cover the cost of the house payment SHE has to make, and the utility bills, with only 2 peoples rent. I figure she needs some cheering up!! I'm bringing extra cookies for her to take home to her kids. :D

[FaeLuna]

sorry, I think I am in babble mode....

[sugar_junkie]

have fun at the party fae :) i wont be havin a party after all cause they cancelled it for sum reasonz...*sighz* :(

[Helén]

Sounds like some really nice people around you Fae. Hope you had a lot of fun!! :classic: It's a shame that people doesn't pay for them I think. They could at least pay some if they're in trouble. And make up a plan for paying of the debt.
Sounds really good those nonalcoholic drinks!! *drooling* I got an idea! How about a thread were people can put down recipies and tips about all sorts of goodies?? I would really like to have them. And how to make those drinks.
Any way.. For about a year ago I had really long hair too .. It covered my butt as well!! But it was so worned out i had to cut it. First I cut off about 40 cm (16 inches). Then again about that length. It's still dowm to my shoulders. ;) And also because of my back and neck it got to heavy. Now i'm looking for s real GOOD hairdresser to help me fogure out an easy hairstyle that I will like.

Hehe.. You're not alone in ramblin along.. ;):classic:

[FaeLuna]

Well we're about to go to ANOTHER party before the big one, turns out our Nephew is having his Birthday Party today too and we got told at the last minute!! I'm typing this as my nails dry enough for the next coat of green nail polish! :p

[Helén]

LOL!! 2 partys at the same night!! How fun can't it be? :laugh:

Have fun Fae!! :classic: And don't do anything I wouldn't ;):laugh:

[ManagerJosh]

ewwwwww Flash screamers


Those are just eviL!

[Helén]

Lol Josh! But they're not for real you know.. :);)

*pats Josh on his shoulder*

[sugar_junkie]

hope ya have fun at both partiez fae! :)

[FaeLuna]

wow... I survived party day!! *splat!* heh I'm so wiped out!! First we went to our nephew's birthday party and helped the kids with the spider pinata, kids with sticks, flying candy, screaming... trying to keep kids NOT holding the stick from running INTO the stick trying to get the candy before the kid WITH the stick stops SWINGING it!!! :p They had a bouncy castle too. Fill kids with sugar, then let them bounce.... if only we could harness the energy! My hubby and I ended up holding the 1 year old baby most of the time. :D

Second party.... ooooh my aching legs!!! I DANCED like mad!! One of the ladies who showed up had her 2 grandkids with her, little boy about 5-7, girl about 9-10. The little kid could DANCE!! He did some breakdancing too, standing on his head and spinning!! We think he could go professional by age 10 at this rate!! My hubby let the kid wear his wrestling mask. :D My costume was fun but I had to take the drapey stuff off to help cook in the kitchen, and I never got it back on. Somehow my costume ended up NOT how I planned... I started as Mother Nature but by the end of the night my friends teased me and stuffed a dollar down my shirt!! I got to keep the money though, haha! My friend with the baby had a CUTE costume, she came in pajamas with her hair in braids, and with fluffy slippers, and her baby was in a Winnie the Pooh Teddy Bear costume, so he was her stuffed bear and she was a girl going to a sleepover!! SOOOO cute!! :D

OK that's my adventures, and why I'm wiped out!!

[ManagerJosh]

OH my Fae...
