my boyfriend is a goldfish or was it gay.com

Saturday. On our way back from IKEA, we went a bit crazy in the car as one does, sitting in eternal lines of cars full of people trying to leave this Swedish heaven/hell. So we started to make up all these possible blog names - anything that we said became a .com, a .net, a .org and so on. Smoking Beijing.com; my boyfriend is a goldfish.com (he has a goldfish memory - asking if he locked the car 5 meters after we left it, every time); i'm hungry.org; sushi now.net etc etc

After 40 minutes of making up different blog names - and no, you would not have liked to be in the car with us, although we found ourselves very funny indeed - we finally arrived, had our Saturday sushi, stood in another line (the 20th this day) to enter a shop of disguise props and got what we needed (me: wings, feathers and green colour, him: green and white colour, green frog!! glasses), passed by another Swedish paradise and got a green t-shirt, and then spent approx. 1h going to every possible shop in Geneva to find t-shirt pens or paint - common, this is something that every shop should have no?? ;)

Exhausted. Tired. But luckily still in party mood - we came home, prepped frog/prince t-shirt, sprayed wings green, and got ready for Halloween (only one day late). Opened a bottle of Cava, V. came over with her fab red wig, attached the ears, wings, feathers and some sparkling stars and off we went. First stop: a friend's housewarming party. The 3 of us the only bizarrely dressed people there! N. going semi-crazy, scaring half the invitees, taking pictures and pushing random people together trying to play match-making, and talking to anyone who almost looked in his direction, in particular this guy who then started to look a bit freaked out so I just had to throw out a 'my boyfriend is gay.com' making V. and N. laugh there heads off while the guy in question and another person looked terrified. oooops

Some pictures later, N. realised that perhaps he hadn't been hired as the party photographer and that we should leave before everyone else were scared off. Second stop: ah that was more like it. Angels and Devils. Nurses and a gigantic sumo. A fly and vampires. Policewomen and monsters. Dreads and flight attendants. And then of course a frog, a green fairy and a red-haired devil in disguise. Great party and great pictures. And N. used his goldfish memory to forget how scary some people find a gayish frog ;)
