Mood: A bit annoyed and a tad angry, but not at anyone in particular. And a bit trapped.
Reason:
I bought a Ghostbusters costume in the assumption I'd be going out with my friends for Halloween again this year. It sucked that when it arrived it was yellow, unlike the promotional photograph (and also the photograph on the packet) which was the usual colour. It has an inflatable proton pack and gun and everything... It would have been perfect if only they'd kept it the same freaking colour as it is meant to be. I don't know how difficult it could be to make that right.
I feel ripped off for that. Paid quite a bit too. I look like a fraggin' canary.
On top of that it looks like we might not be going out for Halloween anyway. I haven't been out for a drink in ages and I'm really desperate for one, and each week all my friends feel so tired. It was never me asking others, always me just going along with them, but now I feel like I haven't done anything for so long I'm having to ask them. And the answer is no. So it looks like I'll never go out again. I'd widen my circle of friends, but it's not like I'm any good at communicating with people other than these guys. Hence the feeling trapped.
I WILL wear that costume though. Even if it is just me sat in my conservatory feeling all miserable, playing Ghostbusters online on my PS3 with complete strangers (because no-one I know even plays Ghostbusters online). It's not like Halloween is important to me, as it would only be my second Halloween ever if it was to occur this year. I was never allowed to do anything for it when I was a kid.
Ah well.
