Another woman in the office has a monster mask, but accounting is not so easy when vision is obstructed by such a thing, she only wore it for a little while this morning.<\/p>\n<p>I love Halloween. We don&#8217;t actually have any plans for tonight though, and with because we came back from the honeymoon late Saturday and were busy all Sunday we didn&#8217;t get a chance to go to any of the local parties. Bummer.<\/p>\n<p>We never did get around to carving our pumpkins this year either, which makes this the first year since Michael and I have spent halloween together that we haven&#8217;t <a href=\"http:\/\/www.princessleia.com\/halloween05.php\">carved pumpkins<\/a>. I figure getting married and going on a honeymoon is a fine excuse though, we&#8217;ll get back into the tradition next year.<\/p>\n<p>This morning I stopped at the new Starbucks in Lansdale. It&#8217;s a nice one, on my way to work, and has a very easy parkinglot to get in and out of &#8211; oh this is going to be dangerous! Mmmm white chocolate mocha.<\/p>\n<p>The other new thing in the area that I&#8217;m excited about is a new <a href=\"http:\/\/www.llbean.com\/shop\/retailStores\/centerValley\/index.html\">L.L. Bean retail store<\/a>! Nita told me about this a couple weeks ago, it&#8217;s only 45 minutes from home! I love L.L. Bean and buy a majority of my clothes there, saving up a few hundred bucks every time we head up to Maine to do some shopping. Hopefully I can make it to the new store within the next couple weeks.<\/p>\n<p>Last night I made a couple calls to family. I&#8217;ve been in touch with my father&#8217;s side of the family over the past year or so, but really had fallen out of touch with my mother&#8217;s side. No particular reason really, we just haven&#8217;t had time to connect. I called my grandparent&#8217;s first to let them know I had gotten married, they were very happy for us (they LOVE Michael). I then gave my aunt Elaine a call, who I&#8217;d lived with a few times in Philadelphia and Rochester, it is unfortunate that we don&#8217;t get to talk more often, but each time we do we pick up from where we left off, it&#8217;s so nice. I also tried to call my mother but she wasn&#8217;t around, I haven&#8217;t spoken to her since before the wedding.<\/p>\n<p>The wedding&#8230; Since I&#8217;m married now I&#8217;m starting to work through the paperwork to get my name legally changed, which is an interesting task. I&#8217;ll also need to get working on getting myself on Google as Elizabeth Bevilacqua rather than Elizabeth Krumbach ;)<\/p>\n<p>Oh and I&#8217;m catching up with blogs. I haven&#8217;t had time\/want to really be online in about 2 weeks, so I have quite the backlog.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8220;Don&#8217;t take this the wrong way&#8230; but you look really good in a witch hat&#8221; &#8211; a co-worker.
