Which now lives with me.
So Serendipity (so named after a pink dinosaur from my childhood) needed to accompany me this Halloween. So I had to find a costume that would be appropriate with a dinosaur.
With some suspension of disbelief, I did a cavewoman. Alex and I spent five hours shopping Saturday to pick out the pieces to our costumes. Then we did at least two hours of tailoring to get my thrift store (and pet store... where else are you going to get a bone?) finds to turn into a costume.
While out that day, I made sure to capture some of my (possibly) last fall in Pittsburgh, at least at CMU. It was a gorgeous, though brisk, day.
This building is the house on campus that I live in. It is much prettier than I ever think of it as, mostly because it is hidden behind other buildings, so it seems ashamed of its appearance. But it is nice and cosy for me on the inside.After all the work on the costumes, it was good that we had somewhere to go! After making Rosie dress up and dragging her along, we stopped by the Lutheran University Center. I skinned my knee playing "Grog" (which sadly has nothing to do with the drink) and we still lost (valiantly!)
All in all, a successful Halloween for the minimal fore-thought and maximal day-of preparations. (Can you guess what everyone in the picture is?)
