It was a really good weekend, and I feel so much more like myself than I have in a while. So I should journal about that, not just the bad stuff!

On Friday, I went to an art opening at the Walker with Joe and Starfive. It was for a graphic design exhibit (the exhibit is cool, I encourage you to check it out if you find things like fonts, colors, infographics, and interactive design interesting). The art opening was totally fun - much more fun than I thought it would be!
One part of it was colors - the promo for the event encouraged you to "dress in your favorite Pantone color" - and then they had a photo booth with giant Pantone color chips for you to take pictures with. So first we took a photo with matchy color chips:

And then mixed it up: WRONG COLORS!! So confusing!

On Saturday, we took care of stuff at home, got groceries, were slothful and enjoyed time together, and made costumes for Jarrin's early-Halloween party. This time it was themed "Seuss Noir".
Joe went as the Wocket in my pocket guy:

so we made him a Wocket, and then also made him a
Nooth Grush on a toothbrush

and a Yottle in a Bottle

Me, I was Foona Lagoona Baboona, from the Sleep Book

The party was fun; I loved several of the costumes I saw and really appreciated the Truffula Trees that were part of the decor.

Sunday we went out to brunch at Luce, and I did some creative sewing just for fun. And I made chili and polenta, this time with Parmesan cheese in it. Yum.

Joe has blue hair now? Whenever you guys save up the money and vacation days, I hope you make it out to someplace where I can see it for myself.

Nice. In related news, there are not many things cuter than your niece saying "Foona Lagoona Baboona". Which she does frequently (when we read the book).

Perfectly swell, all that. The first photo is a really good pic of Joe!
