The Tangled Web

 

Tomorrow is Halloween!  Which, just happens to be one of my most favourite holidays.  Really, I just like holidays in general.  They make me happy.  I like celebrating, eating fun food, and most of all, I like traditions.  Dressing up is a particular favourite.  Halloween costumes are just awesome.

In general, I'm not a huge fan of being scared, but I love spooky things.  I've always had a bit of a goth sensibility... for example, I think that this spider web is really pretty.  It's also creepy, but it's pretty.

HAPPY HALLOWEEN EVERYONE!!

Roll the Dice

On our last night in Austin, a bunch of us got together and played a late night game of Illuminati in the gazebo by the pool.  Danny and I had gone for a late night swim in the pool a few nights before, but were rudely interrupted by the sounds of a pack of coyotes killing a deer about twenty feet away, in the woods.  When that happened, we prompty ran away.  Coyotes don't generally attack people, especially in groups... but I am pretty little, and it was much safer to just leave.  This night, we had six people, and lots of lights on, so we weren't particularly concerned.  That's Danny, with the dive and the instructions, in the very dim light of a single 60w lamp.

Little Italy

Blurry, yes.  But I think that it really captures the feel of Little Italy around 11PM on a Saturday night, which is when this shot was taken.  Chinatown seems to die down after dinner time, but Little Italy rages on into the hours after midnight.  Even at 11PM hosts were trying to get us to come and sit down in their restaurants, raving about their cannolis or tiramisu.
