And just like that, we're all caught up! Hooray! A site approached me wanting to advertise, but I asked if they wouldn't mind just giving me a discount in return for a review instead. I've wanted these things for years, dating way back to when I was a REBELLYUS high school freshman in 1961. So, here's the Halloween review of Scary Contact Lenses. Four different pairs, from "Cateye" to "Whiteout." I gotta admit, I love the things. I'm past the point where I could be all fringe and wear 'em to the grocery store, but they'll be awesome for Halloween and other occasions when the general public couldn't make fun of me.
The company who sells 'em, Party Lenses, was super cool to do this, and their prices are undeniably on the cheap. I know pairs sell for like a hundred bucks and up if you hit up the wonderful mall; Party Lenses' prices are much cheaper. If you're ever gonna buy a pair of these, try doing it through them so they get a little payback for the nice gesture.
Also, the late entry for Saturday digs into the seedy world of Halloween costumes for your pets, featuring a series of photos where I maim and torture one of our cats for the good of the holiday.

I said it before, but I’ll say it again… yeah, Matt is hot ^_^ Looks like we’re getting quite a little fan club in this thread, we’re the "Matt is hot" groupies! Anyhow, love the kitty costume, animal cruelty has never been so much fun! The sad thing is there are actually costume contests for animals. A long time ago I entered the dog I used to own in such a contest, I just superglued plastic scabs on her and she was roadkill. A lot of people thought my coustme was cruel, but if you consider the things they made their poor dogs wear mine was the least cruel =P Too bad the only animals I have now are my 2 rabbits… maybe I can just pretend they’re dressed as matching bunny slippers? As for the contact lenses, I always wanted a pair of those freaky ones, but I think I’ve outgrown them now. Not to mention that putting contacts on freaks me out. The first time I ever tried to put them on it literally took me an hour to get them in. Suppose it’s a good thing I have perfect vision anyway ^_^ One more thing, I was never really a regular in the blog, but I figured I’d say goodbye anyway. I won’t have the internet much longer and I can honestly say x-e is the site I’ll miss the most.
