I'm taking the beginning of Diwali celebrations today as an assurance that love endures, and that light perseveres... all Hallow's Eve is actually the same thing, right?
Nu dressed as Rainbow Dash today and is out with friends. Diwali is a multi-day affair and they have the day off tomorrow to celebrate Diwali anyway. Yay!
I gather from friends in New Jersey that school districts there have the day off too. When I was at the fireworks store yesterday to buy sparklers for the party, the guys there wished me "Happy Diwali!" All this feels surprisingly mainstream!
I'm excited (and a teensy bit anxious--so many moving parts) about our Diwali party on Saturday--my baby cousin and her friends, a former student and their partner, and my in-laws are coming for the weekend... and to help me prep!

See, I knew my daughter and Nu would be friends- she went to a convention this summer dressed as Twilight Sparkle and her best friend was Rainbow Dash.
Good luck with the part, and Happy Diwali!
North's second costume of the day yesterday was Fluttershy. My Little Pony all around apparently.
Happy Diwali!
Happy Diwali! I thought of you often as I watched several news segments about Diwali celebrations everywhere. It's such a beautiful holiday. I hope we can all look forward to the Triumph of Light over Darkness in many ways, and very soon.
Have a great visit this weekend. Enjoy your time with loved ones.
Happy Diwali! We are celebrating tomorrow as well. Today is Day of the Dead, so I put out pictures of beloved family who have died. Poignant.
Happy Diwali! There was a Diwali display (sparkly!) and parade at my Monday school - my partner librarian is Indian. Nu's costume reminds me of one of Eve's first bras which was colourful and striped and she said made her feel like "slutty Rainbow Dash" :)
Jenny, I've thought that too! One big difference between them is that your A is a vegan (I think?) mine is quite carnivorous!
Thanks, Steph! MLP forever!
Thank you, Nance. "Very soon..." May it be so!
Happy Diwali to you and yours, Julie... I
And I know this has been a tough year... wishing you peace of mind as well. <3
Thank you! Eve looks so angelic, I did not expect that comment and burst out laughing! Thanks for that as well!
Nice
