The Halloween Thread

Thanks, but my daughter is 15, and is fully developed (damnit!). Those costumes are cute, but too small.

Shh, what kinds of TV shoes/movies is your daughter into? I always think TV and movie characters are good inspiration.

I liked misombra's cleopatra idea, too. She sounds like she could be fairly covered up in that.

She doesn't really watch TV, and I don't even know when the last time was she saw a movie. She is more into musical theater these days. Maybe I can do something with Wicked, although I don't know how exciting an ugly witch can be, and all the pretty ones are trampy).

Last year, my boyfriend and I made Hello Kitty costumes..the heads were made of paper mache. Ill post a picture in the gallery, in case some of you'd like to see.
It was sooo much fun walking around the city (NYC) like that..tons of people ran up to us, begging to take pictures with us. We even marched in the village parade, which was awesome except for the actual getting into the parade part. That was a hassle... so many people shoving up against me as I tried to protect my giant hello kitty head..which amazingly survived the night.

That sounds like fun. I haven't actually stepped near the village parade in ages because there are soooo many people, but I love walking around and checking out the costumes once the parade has dispersed.

I'd love to see those pics, Kitty

Look in the gallery!

Now I'm leaning towards Sarah Palin for myself. I could get the blue Republican lady suit from the Salvation Army, the Tina Fey glasses, and the sensible low-heeled shoes. I could put lipstick on a stuffed animal pig and carry it around with me. Would be such an inexpensive costume!

Am I the only one who thinks Sarah Palin is a MILF?

I think the Republican party is betting on the fact that most male voters would agree.

Am I the only one who thinks Sarah Palin is a MILF?

Yes.

And while I don't think of myself as anything particularly exceptional in the looks department, I can safely say if you find her to be attractive, you'd probably like me, too.

And my mother.

And my grandmother.

Why didn't you pop a girl out earlier so I could take her out?

[shh!]

Ugh, don't remind me of my daughter. I adore her, but she's so naive it scares me. I hope she DOES find a nice boy (when she's older) who will protect her from her naive self.

Is she blonde?

I'm kind of curious what you look like Shh!

[shh!]

No, we are both brunette. I thought you'd seen our pictures? Maybe that was DM...

I'll swap you.

Nope...probably DM. Alrighty. Just send me a PM I guess.

Halloween sounds like a lot of fun.

Even though in Australia over the last few years I have noticed more kids trick or treating it is still an anomaly. I think it is probably because it is considered more of an American thing and therefore not many people have Halloween parties.
