I won a gift certificate at my local collage. For most original costume. I was Kira/ Clio from XANADU. I would give you pics but we have to wait till they publish it into the collage newsletter later next month.

I thought my Tessie Tura costume was a great hit last night, although I received some criticism for not having shaved my chest. I guess you just can't please everyone!
I was a sheep and went as Palin, and I'm sure there were many more. My boyfriend was a moose and I had a nerf gun, pageant ribbon and tiara. For the costume contest they did groups of three, and we happened ot be grouped with a very clever costume: a pregnant pageant queen with a sash taht said "Miss Conception."
Unfortunately I didn't get a costume this year, but if I go to a party tonight I probably will go as Palin and wear my suit and glasses and maybe get a sash and American flag. Yep, I'm cheap.

Here is my Little Red Riding Hood costume. I am very proud of myself for making the cape and my little apron thing myself.
My sister still needs to send me the one she took when we were out. And I still would like to know why this outfit made really disgusting guys hit on me all night.

I was Little Red Riding Hood this year too and I had the same problem, Marianne! I don't know what it was, but I kept getting followed around by real creepers.
Call the understudy / I can't go on tonight / I'm drinking with my buddy / I'm getting good and tight / Before they raise the curtain I'll be higher than a kite / So call the understudy
I can't go on tonight
I went as Elle Woods, with almost an exact SO MUCH BETTER costume (except my skirt had a different pink pattern on it). But I had the three quarter jean jacket, the grey tank with pink lace trim, and A list taped to my back with the interns names on it, mine circled, and "warner and elle forever" in a heart written on it in pink sharpie. I also was carrying a pink dog purse with a chihuahua stuff animal. It was fun!
Thanks, Schmerg! I'm really proud of how amazingly the costume turned out.
I joked that, God forbid she wins, but if she did (knock on wood) I could make a decent living as a Palin impersonator. I have the dialect down pretty solidly.

Last year, I was Dr. Frank N Furter when I went to Salem, Mass. for Halloween. No one knew who I was..I should have guessed that. This year, I stayed in NY and I was one of the "Newsboys" from Gypsy.

I was Sally Bowles this year. The BROADWAY Sally Bowles. Not Liza. I really played up the drug addict Sally. I drew bruises on my arms, track marks, scratches, scars, etc.
In addition to the makeup, wig and such, I wore garters, thigh highs, black pumps and a black feather boa off and on. Every now and then I'd substitute the boa for the "Mein Herr" leather jacket. And of course I painted my fingernails green. that was the first thing I bought for the costume, the green nail polish, LOL.
I got mistaken for Frank-N-Furter 3 times. I didn't encounter any true thespians who would recognize me. Grrrr. But at least I didn't get mistaken for Velma Kelly.
I don't WANT to live in what they call "a certain way." In the first place I'd be no good at it and besides that I don't want to be identified with any one class of people. I want to live every whichway, among all kinds---and know them---and understand them---and love them---THAT's what I want! - Philip Barry (Holiday)

I planned on going as Janet van de Graaff but I ended up not finding anything I liked, and I didn't go to the party I was supposed to.
