Halloween Approacheth, Break out the Costumes...

Post by El Moose Monstero »

Anyone else starting to get costume ideas together? Being in the land of Halloween, I thought I might as well put the effort in, I'm going ala Senor Depp, as close to piratey as possibily, I'm not sure if my hair will straighten out long enough to go into dreadlocks, but there's always painted string... :) and a black eyeliner will have to do for beards, as there's no way I can grow the required length in time... :)

I think I'll just go get some camo and pretend to be a member of the Michigan militia. At least that costume is comfortable and practical.

I've already told Rebecca to get her nurse costume out :)

There's no poll option for me. I think dressing up in costumes for Halloween is awesome, but I'm too lazy to do it usually.

Actually, since Halloween is on a Friday, I'll probably be working. In that case, I'll see if I can go in a Blockbuster uniform. That would be pretty cool.

I plan on wearing my army gear, its about the only time besides playing paintball that I can wear it.

Last year I went with my 'Australian Outback' trenchcoat and a cowbow hat, which is sufficiently "bizarre" in these parts to constitute a costume. :)

I'll be sitting on my ass at home while everyone else my age is doing something fun with friends. And I don't have the time to go around a neighborhood asking for candy anyway.

I plan on being a Knight of the Joust. That consists of:

Goalie pads for protection,
hockey sticks for lances,
shopping carts for steeds,
and the skate-park as the arena.

Me and Eric are gonna kill each other, then get candy. It's gonna rule.

I am trying to get a friend to dress up as a Garden Gnome (she's about the same size as one), but she wants to be the girl from the Ring (she has the hair for it too...).

If I can force her to dress up as something other than Duo Maxwell (she's way into anime) then I will go, and be... something. Otherwise, I will stay home and eat candy.

I'm going as Alex from A Clockwork Orange. Found a nifty website on how to make the costume:

http://www.geocities.com/malcolmtribute ... stume.html

Still looking for the perfect Bowler's hat, but I've got the rest of it and my friend Missy is going to be doing my makeup, so I should be good. Now I've just got to go watch the movie about a hundred times to try to learn how to speak like him.

My university has a halloween costume competition going on at the school party and I am SO going to win...
