halloween costumes... give me last minute ideas!
« on: October 25, 2006, 11:43:00 AM »

I was thinking of going as Daria because I have the perfect Quinn to pair up with. Last year I almost was Aurora Borealis. Somehow.

Enrique and I didn't have anything to go to the party as on Saturday.  On the way to the party, we went to Target and bought 2 pairs of sweatpants, thread and a needle.  I sewed the pants together on the way and we were "attached at the hip".  Many people didn't realize it because it wasn't any different than usual.

All you need is a person, sweatpants, needle and thread.

Oh yeah and then people thought they were cute and asked how we would go to the bathroom.

Enrique's standard answer was...'with my penis, like I always do'.  Mine was...'on the toilet, like I always do'.

I like. I saw a pic of someone online who went as a piece of gum by strapping a shoe to the top of their head.

HAHA. The Pope.

You could always wear a white t-shirt, red pants, red shoes, tie a string to your head...and go as a tampon. I have done it. It is fun.

Josh's costume this year was a scientist getting attacked by his escaped lab mice. The mice were made from cotton balls and pipe cleaners, so people asked if they were either a) tampons or b) sperm (this one came from his own mother!!!).

I've decided that tomorrow for our office Halloween party I will be the ghost of habeas corpus.

Sadly, I haven't had time to get a costume together this year.  My mom pointed out that this is probably the first time I haven't had a costume since I was one day old.

My work made me dress all corporate. We're usually as casual as it gets (jeans with tears, spikes, hispter hair, mini skirts etc etc etc) and today was corporate takeover halloween. Gay.

This year I'm going for authenticity so I'm putting together a radiation worker outfit like the one I used to wear occupationally years ago.  The Halloween party we're going to isn't for a while yet though, so I still have time.

I found the website of the manufacturer the US Navy uses for the anti-contamination suits we used in my division, so I'm going to order almost my whole getup from them, and I found an authentic surplus breathing filter mask on ebay to complete the outfit.

I'll make sure I post pics.  It should turn out pretty good.

Hey, I won first prize in our office costume contest today!  :-o

So just to scare the crap out of you, here is "the Death of Habeas Corpus":



I already posted this elsewhere, so apologies to those who've already had their eyeballs burned out.

That is an awesome idea for a costume, B.O.C.  I wish I'd thought of that.
