grim grinning ghosts

As promised, pictures from my weekend: on Saturday night, my guy and I went down to the Hollywood Forever Cemetery and celebrated Dia de los Muertos with a few thousand other Angelenos. It was freakin' awesome. I took lots of pictures. I apologize in advance.

Me and the boy. Not quite rocking the Calaca look but close enough, eh?

Me. That corset is going to get another use for Halloween, too. Oh, I haven't told you my costume yet? It's....well, I'll tell you on Thursday :)







rest in peace, Dee Dee Ramone. We miss you.

I really think having "Actor/Husband/Father/Count Dracula" on your gravestone would be kind of badass.

So much so that I accidently repeated that twice more. I wouldn't say that except it shows that I have 2 deleted comments :)

OK, you have to wear this eyeliner.. all the time.

The boy is scaring me. As for the fun-lit night, it's sweet! It looks like scary Disney more than anything and I like your costume, I suggest an outfit repeat or whatever they call it.

More pictures, more.

Gorgeous photos! :)

I'm glad you found your way over to my blog. I'm always interested in running into people who are similar to me! And that, often times, is a very rare occurrence! :) I lived in SoCal for awhile [San Diego], too, and am now loving being back in the NE area. I'm hoping to make a foray into martial arts, but am starting out slowly with boxing [I leave all the heavy training to the boyfriend. :)].

I am so excited to explore your blog. Everything looks amazing! :)
