having the person who is the "other half of your costume" basically back out at the last possible minute after planning and buying props since february. I've spent close to $400 on props for this year's halloween costume.
It needs to be two people, otherwise it's stupid and makes no sense.
And the co-worker I was planning it with was on "medical leave" for two weeks, came back for a week, and is now on "medical leave" again for two more weeks. No one but management has any idea what's going on with her, and due to HIPPA, they can't tell us. Thing that annoys me is I specifically asked her a week ago if we were still on for this(as she had just gotten off medical leave) and was told-yes. Now if you're too sick to work for two weeks obviously you won't be going out-yet there is no way to contact her. No house phone, no cell phone, and her computer died last week.
If she had told me last week I could've gotten another person or gotten a back-up costume(husband is going as cobra commander-I could've gone as "the Baroness"-cannot pull that together in two days), instead I've got nothing, everyone already has their costumes/plans made. I should've known from past plans, anything and everything I plan goes to hell at the last possible minute.
This just totally blows. I love halloween, and freakfest-which is the biggest city sponsored halloween event pretty much in the country. TMZ covers it every year for pete's sake.
