"I feel lost"

lumy12Okay, I am spending too much time online. Most people in the world don't know anything about Star Wars, it seems. HOW CAN SOMEONE WHO HAS SEEN REVENGE OF THE SITH THINK THAT I AM PRINCESS LEIA???? That was my biggest pet peeve of the day. If you're not into Star Wars, fine, but if you saw the movie... how can you forget which character was pregnant??? Obviously the movie did not make as much of an impression on him as it did on me.
And it's funny, the people who did know a little about Star Wars sometimes eventually got around to guessing "Amidala" or "the Queen" (to which I had to point out she was a Senator at the time she wore this outfit) - no one ever seems to remember the name "Padme."

tzietalmalfoy outdid herself on my dress, it really is extraordinarily lovely. It pains me that it will just sit in my closet for a year. Maybe someone can throw a Star Wars party and invite me? Yeah.
My hair is still wet in these so it hasn't achieved its full fluffiness yet. It looks better in the pics with my coworkers, but I didn't bother asking their permission to post the pics here so screw it, you get the idea!
I love my Anakin! And my Anakin. (two Anakins in this pic, heh)
Anakin trying to look like he couldn't care less about the lightsaber over his head
NOW he cares... how cute, Ani likes the lightsaber!
This one came out a bit dark... then again, 'twas a dark movie, no? Oh and lookie, I drew the mole on the wrong side of my face, cuz I forgot that when you look in a mirror things are OPPOSITE. I is a jenyus, yes. Of course not a single person noticed this, they didn't even know who I was!
I have new respect for pregnant people. Especially pregnant people who wear long flowy dresses and have to pick up their train to walk outside or to the bathroom. I have successfully dehydrated myself so that I only needed to pee twice as of now, woohoo! Sitting down and getting up was an event each time today.
I got lots of attention since only a few other people even bothered to dress up - which is typical. I just love Halloween, I can't help myself, I always dress up! My "bellymaker" even dressed as a doctor, in case I went into early labor. Ha!!!! And I filled out a leave request form to request 12 weeks of maternity leave, to be signed by Mr. Bellymaker Doctor. Hehehehehehe. I wonder if HR will buy it and give me 12 weeks off with pay! (I have enough time off to cover almost all of it)
I'm still wearing my outfit for the benefit of trick-or-treaters, though I've had just a few so far - I guess Monday Halloweens are not popular for trick-or-treating? I dunno. Last year I got like 50 kids and nearly ran out of candy. Oh well, I can bring the leftovers to work and they will get eaten within the week.
And lastly - I am done with my CD-Alpha-order thingie. So I actually have to put some thought into what CD I play in my car now. *gasp* First time in just over a year! I thought I started it in November '04 but looking back I see that really it was October '04, not sure of the exact date. Anyway - should I feel free? Cuz I feel a little... lost. [Hey, that's a good header for this entry] I'm pretty lacking in decision-making skillzzzz, even with things as frivolous as what CD to play.
Too bad I won't have time to watch it 'til the weekend *loud noisy sigh*

Date: 2005-11-01 10:11 am (UTC)And I forgot to mention - more than one person said "Well if you did the makeup and the head thing..." - um, NO, I was NOT Queen Amidala from Episode I, I was Senator Amidala from Episode III and I did my hair and makeup just like she had hers in the movie! Grrr. I did have to point this out to them, little know-it-all that I am!

Yeah, it's like Leia is the only female the general public knows about. But people who have seen the prequels really should know better *sighs & shakes head*
